Am I the only one who thinks the kid is annoying?

I think Danny did a wonderful job! These days, most child actors can't pull off those kind of reactions. He makes me wanna cry because he looks genuinely scared. I mean he's six for goodness sake; Cujo looks like a monster and his mom was being attacked by the monster; I ask you, how is the six year old suppose to react to that? It doesn't matter whether the kid is a boy or a girl.they're gonna freak out.

I'm with you, my_FAV. I thought Danny did a fantastic job. Watching now, for the first time in years, and again I am struck by how well he pulled off being completely terrified, as a small child would be in that situation. (Hell, as I would be, too!)
P.S. Love your quote. Roseanne, right?

Yes he was irritating, but it didn't seem like over acting. I thought it looked like he was genuinely terrified. As though they stuck him in the car & didn't tell him what would happen. LOL, like that would be allowed.

Ughhh! He was so annoying. I really wanted Cujo to eat him. I dislike most kids in horror movies, unless they are the antagonist. The inclusion of kids in horror movies tends to PG-13ify it, which to a horror movie, is the kiss of death. There are some exceptions but few and far between. Guillermo del Toro was one of my favorite directors, but his seeming obsession with making a kid part of the central story, if not a protagonist, has seriously downgraded him for me. Pan's Labyrinth and Devil's backbone are 2 exceptions to the above.

lol even though I've gotta criticize you for thinking a boy of 6yrs of age is a sissy for being scared sh*tless of a rabid (possessed?) dog attacking him and he's mom, its amusing that the kid turned out to be gay.

Unless you're a troll, you'd beep your god damn pants to oblivion in front of that dog. No, not at Tad's age of five, but at your current age. You'd be the one screaming for a mommy, and we'd all just stand there and laugh our brains out until the dog fangs out your eyeballs and rends your intestines apart.

make a post about how much of a pussy this kid was.
Because a 4 year old little boy was afraid of something in his closet and of the 200 lb dog that was attacking the car that he was trapped in and then attacking his mother? How was he supposed to actsit calmly or jump out of the car and kick Cujo in the teeth? lol -

Really, like getting ripped apart by the dog was going to be very helpful? He would have just been killed. Cujo was a 200 lb dog, he was a small child. I have a nephew that would have behaved the same way when he was 4 or 5.

Sigh
. Like by not screaming at the top of your lungs making the dog more irritated. When you overreact around any dangerous animal it just make it worse. Just like if you run you should expect to be chased. Your nephew is a pussy. -

Sigh, a child does not think like an adult. An adult knows that screaming is going to irritate the dog, didn't you see his mother trying to cover his mouth while he was screaming? An adult is going to know that running is going to cause something to chase you. A child that can barely tell fact from fiction is going to going to do whatever it takes them to cope.
