Does the canine in ‘Good Boy’ die?

Is there something the web loves greater than canines? (Cat folks, I am unable to hear you!)

Effectively, a love of canines is a key ingredient to what makes Good Boy such a incredible horror film premise. The trailer for the IFC Movies launch dropped yesterday, portray a creepy portrait of an lovely canine in mortal peril! Co-writer/director Ben Leonberg facilities his movie on Indy, his circle of relatives’s canine, who has unimaginable star energy. The premise is easy: a canine is in a haunted home the place his proprietor cannot sense the spirits that would hurt them each. And you recognize what which means: the canine might die.

The speedy response to the trailer on X was film followers (and canine lovers) involved over this very query:

Now, that is truly a serious level of pressure within the movie. Positive, it’s normal for the stakes in a horror film to be life or dying — however with folks.The very existence of an internet site devoted to studying if the canine dies in any given film suggests we as a species are extra petrified of seeing a candy canine being killed onscreen than hordes of attractive teenagers and even ghost-plagued youngsters. And Indy is not simply any canine. Because the trailer and my overview out of SXSW proclaims, he is a star. That led me to admit, “The resulting horror movie had me yelping like I was a kid seeing her first scary movie.”

That was in no small half as a result of I did not know the way this film would finish, and I used to be very invested.
