Our comment

A cult Spanish thriller from the 1970s, A Dog Called... Vengeance stands out for its constant tension and veiled social critique. Starring Jason Miller (famous for The Exorcist), the film is a rare Spanish foray into paranoid survival. Antonio Isasi-Isasmendi orchestrates a breathtaking production that has left its mark on fans of political and psychological thrillers.
