Details
As the story unfolds, we witness Baxter's dangerous and manipulative nature. He manipulates his owner and orchestrates a series of fatal encounters with humans and animals in order to increase his chances of being placed with a new family. This dark and disturbing behavior raises questions about the nature of animals and the possible evil that can reside within them.
The film explores themes of loyalty, human-animal relationships, and the dark side of humanity.
