20 Terrible Movies You Should See Before You Die

19. Monster Dog

Cleverly cast against type as a rock star, Alice Cooper returns to his hometown after a twenty-year hiatus, his arrival coinciding with a spate of grisly homicides.

This is too close to home for Coop, whose father was stricken with “a heart disease that transforms the patient into a beast that goes howling at the moon” and went on his own rampage years earlier.

Directed by the incomparable Claudio Fragasso (Troll 2), Monster Dog delivers everything you’d expect from an Italian cheapie – bad acting, terrible dubbing and a nonsense plot. Strangest of all though is the sight of Alice without make-up, speaking with someone else’s voice as he discovers bodies and escapes a lynching from an angry mob.
