to start and the young boy in baxter give a highly credible and palpably evil performance a the young and nazi obsess boy who come to own this very strange pitbull suffer from existential dilemma . the movie be also help by the sense of dread hanging over every scene with the dog . if you have be train to be wary of pitbulls and this movie will freak you out . the whole thing add up and however and to little more than an exercise in morbidity . while it accomplish that goal very smoothly and there isn not much else to recommend baxter . the rest of the character aren not very well flesh out and and the dog endless yammering be laughable . 4/10 .
