A reporter (Ally Sheedy) sneaks into a lab to investigate animal cruelty, and emerges from the ordeal with a mastiff named Max in this 1993 thriller. The dog, which has been genetically enhanced, makes her life miserable while they are being chased by the owner of the lab (Lance Henriksen). ~ John Bush, Rovi

Chief problem is that Max the dog -- a Tibetan mastiff -- is easily the most likable character in the movie.
... a canine Frankenstein with real bite.
A smart dog turns from friendly to killer. Like 'Old Yeller' with gore, and a really crummy plot.
One of the sillier "killer dog" movies - and that's saying something.
Competently done, but mostly very silly. Except for the dog rape scene. Dog rape should always be taken very seriously. As should the scene where the dog eats a cat like a duck (without swallowing).
