🎬 Cujo (2025) – First trailer
Cast: Anya Taylor-Joy, Joel Edgerton, Jacob Tremblay
Director: Jennifer Kent (The Babadook)
Genre: Horror | Suspense | psychological drama
Criticism:
The first trailer for Cujo (2025) is finally here, a regrettable and slow sadness that redefines one of Stephen King’s most terrifying stories for modern generations. Directed by horror visionary Jennifer Kent, the film promises more than blood and heartbeats: it is a psychological decision to isolation, trauma and primitive means.
The trailer opens with wide shots of a ruined farmhouse and a threatening storm crossing a rural landscape. Anya Taylor-Joy, as Donna Trenton, traces a serene intensity as a mother at the edge of the abyss, abandoned with her small child (played by Jacob Tremblay) when her car breaks down in front of a remote mechanic’s house. And then Cujo appears.
But this is not a raivoso qualquer. The trailer suggests a deeper horror: hallucinations, possible supernatural elements and psychological flashbacks that confuse the line between real and imaginary terror. Joel Edgerton plays Donna’s ex-husband, in a run against the tempo — and his own secrets — to discover them.
The sound design is particularly haunting: Cujo’s grunts blend with distorted, almost human whispers. Jennifer Kent’s touch is unmistakable: slow camera movements, oppressive silence, and sudden moments of explosive terror. Unlike the original 1983 film, this version feels more character-driven, with a strong focus on mental breakdown under pressure.v
Yes, Cujo is absolutely terrifying. Enormous, growling, and filmed with physical brutality, the dog is less a monster and more a force of nature. But the trailer suggests something even more frightening than Cujo himself: what fear does to the mind when there is no escape.
Final Verdict (trailer):
Cujo (2025) promises to be not just a horror reboot, but a reimagined psychological thriller, brimming with terror and human fragility. Judging by the trailer, this could be one of the most intense King adaptations in years.
