The concept: the film is told from a dog’s point of view.
According to IMDb, “A loyal dog moves to a rural family home with his owner Todd, only to discover supernatural forces lurking in the shadows. As dark entities threaten his human companion, the brave pup must fight to protect the one he loves most.”

Although it might not sound scary, following along with the cute pup, the trailer very clearly showcases that this is far from ‘Marley & Me’.
Director Ben Leonberg (‘The Fisherman’s Wife’) and Alex Cannon (‘Lost Causes’) co-wrote the film, and the star of the production is played by Leonberg’s pet, Indy the dog.
Shane Jensen (‘Four’) plays the role of the human lead, ‘Todd’.
