Cujo - Stephen King Reviews

Rather a disappointment here by King...don't get me wrong, though, i am a huge fan of King and love nearly every novel he has written...except this... Cujo...a 200 pound Saint Bernard dog...unfortunately bitten by a rabid bat one day and contracts the disease. Meanwhile, we are introduced to a young boy and his family. Tad is the ...

The tale of mans' best friend gone bad! Cujo, a very strange name for a book and certainly an even stranger one for the dog of a rural mechanic. The name comes from an age old poem, I'm not sure which by now, but the dog, the key to the entire book, is named CUJO, a name which can make my spine tingle still. The plot. ...

Firstly let me start off by saying that I am no genius when it comes to reviewing novels. I am not going to give you some splurge about the artistic style etc. but rather to give general overview of the book and perhaps who it will appeal to. This IS all I have to offer here, but hopefully you will find this of some use anyway. Cujo is ...

When I picked this book off the shelf I had no idea what lay in store. The story revolves around a family pet which contracts rabies and becomes a monster. I was surprised at the way in which King makes the dog almost human, by explaining its thoughts as the rabies get a hold of him. For example,as the dog gets sicker, he wonders why he is so ...

Yes. I know this is another review of a Stephen King book, but I happen to like the guy. And I've read a lot of his books. And they're pretty exceptional. Can I get on now?? Good. Imagine you are a large St. Bernards dog (just humour me) and you've recently been bitten by a bat infected with Rabies. As dogs go, you're ...

Once again, thrill-horror-shock master Stephen King has managed to write yet another masterful horror piece. In this novel about a good, oafish, loveable dog named Cujo who has gone and got himself bitten by a rabid bat, we are introduced to a woman and her young son's journey through hell. How would you like to be trapped in a Pinto in ...

Cujo is one the most amazing books I have read by Stephen King, and I have a collection of almost all his books. This particular is one of the most believable. Cujo is a huge St Bernard dog who wouldn’t hurt a fly, that is until he had a run in with some rabid bats, as dogs do he stuck his nose in the wrong place and pays the ...

Cujo is another masterpiece from Stephen King, and like his other books it's one that you can't put down. The only time I get to read these days is when I lock myself in the bath. Now, I always have my bath water hot to the point of boiling, so when I get out and it's stone cold because I've been reading this book ...

Cujo is one of the best books I have ever read, Stephen King excels himself totally. Cujo is a large St. Bernard who puts his nose somewhere he shouldn’t and gets infected with Rabies. All’s well for a while, but Cujo deteriorates into a killing machine with a taste for human blood quite quickly. Very sensitive to noise, he ...

So far, other books by King I've read are The Dead Zone and Firestarter. Don't get me wrong, these are fantastic novels (I've written DooYoo reviews on them as well) but they seem a bit far-fetched. But when I read Cujo, it was so real it could have been based on a true story. It is a simple plot really, a 200 pound St ...

Cujo is so well-paced and scary that people tend to read it quickly, so they mostly remember the scene of the mother and son trapped in the hot Pinto and threatened by the rabid Cujo, forgetting the multifaceted story in which that scene is embedded. This is definitely a novel that rewards re-reading. When you read it again, you can pay ...

This book is a Stephen King classic. Cujo is a two hundred pound St Bernard dog. One day Cujo is chasing a rabbit, the rabbit disappears down a hole. Cujo trys to follow the rabbit down the hole, what Cujo dosn't know is the hole is full of rabid bats. One of these rabid bats bites Cujo. Cujo is turned from a sweet ...
