😿😿
Edition screened: Buena Vista DVD, released 2003. English language. Runtime approximately 106 minutes.
Summary: Semi-accidental killing of a dog.
Details: Animals are acting strangely because of alien invaders. Mel Gibson finds his children crying beside their dead German Sheppard, and the boy relates that the dog “fell” on him (and a barbecue fork) while the dog was attacking the girl. Mel Gibson scolds Joaquin Phoenix for not watching the kids, and a county cop pulls the meat fork from the dog’s neck. All of this, 9:59-11:36. Substantially later in the film we hear the second of the two family dogs being killed by aliens.
