Ever been stuck in a situation that’s completely out of your control? This Norwegian student film captures that exact feeling with a clever mix of 3D animation and stop-motion effects. Blowing Off Steam, by Nora Fossan and Filip Dobes, takes place in a train station where every single train is cancelled. For the overwhelmed station manager, it all becomes too much… and the only thing left to do is, quite literally, blow off steam.

Dogs have always been the unsung heroes of horror movies: first to growl at empty hallways, first to know when something wicked this way comes. Now, one finally gets the lead role.

GOOD BOY is a supernatural horror story told entirely from a dog’s point of view. Directed by Ben Leonberg, the film stars Indy the retriever (the director’s own pup!) as he follows his human, Todd, into a long-abandoned family home in the country. But while Todd is settling in, Indy knows something’s wrong: unseen presences stalk the halls, a ghostly dog delivers warnings, and dark forces tighten their grip.

When Todd begins to fall under the house’s dark influence, it’s up to Indy to fight back against the evil threatening to drag his best friend into the afterlife.

GOOD BOY hits North American theaters on October 3. Horror fans, don’t forget to trust the dog: he knows what’s coming.
