Good Boy trailer teases horror from a dog’s perspective

August 18, 2025 by Amie Cranswick

IFC Films has shared a poster and trailer for director Ben Leonberg’s canine-led supernatural horror Good Boy.

Indy the dog leads the cast in the titular role as the good boy who moves to a new home in the country with his best friend, but the creepy property leaves Indy unsettled and the heroic pup takes decides to take on the malevolent entities residing there who are threatening to take his beloved human companion into the afterlife.

Joining Indy in the cast are Larry Fessenden, Arielle Friedman, Shane Jensen, Anya Krawcheck and Stuart Rudin. Watch the trailer below…

Our canine hero, Indy, finds himself on a new adventure with his human owner—and best friend—Todd, leaving city life for a long-vacant family home in the country. From the start, two things are abundantly clear: Indy is wary of the creepy old house, and his affection for Todd is unwavering. After moving in, Indy is immediately vexed by empty corners, tracks an invisible presence only he can see, perceives phantasmagoric warnings from a long-dead dog, and is haunted by visions of the previous occupant’s grim death. When Todd begins succumbing to the dark forces swirling around the house, Indy must battle a malevolence intent on dragging his beloved Todd into the afterlife.

Good Boy arrives in cinemas on October 3rd.
