– Wendy Ide / The Observer

“When a troubled young man decides to move to his late grandfather’s house in the rural American countryside, he’s hoping for something of a fresh start. But the demons that lurk in the dilapidated home prove to be more terrifying than the ones he’s trying to outrun. This may sound like a familiar genre premise – and indeed it would be, if not for the fact that haunted house horror Good Boy is told entirely from the point of view of the man’s loyal dog, Indy. In lesser hands, this could have been merely a gimmick but, with his feature debut, director Ben Leonberg delivers an effective, genuinely unsettling chiller.”
– Nikki Baughan / Screen International
