“Dogman may be the closest thing the director has come to making an autobiography — that is if you get past all the barking, mascara and blood.” — The Hollywood Reporter

As a child, Douglas was abused by a violent father who literally threw him to the dogs. Instead of attacking him, the dogs protected him. Traumatized, and leading a life on the margins of society, completely isolated except for the company of his dogs, Douglas descends into murderous madness.

One of the most outrageous films of the year, this delightfully dark mix of Taxi Driver, Beethoven and even Home Alone features an incredible lead performance from Caleb Landry Jones (Nitram) as a man broken by trauma, disability and rejection, but held together by a deep passion for Shakespeare, Edith Piaf and exacting brutal vengeance alongside a four-legged army.
