Veteran horror novelist Stephen King is revisiting an old classic of his, albeit in a bit of an odd way. During an episode of Bloody Disgusting's The Loser's Club podcast, King was asked about some of his latest work including Rattlesnakes. Though he was secretive about the major details of the project, he revealed that it will be a sequel of sorts to the dog-centric horror tale Cujo.

Cujo is King's 1981 psychological horror classic that sees the titular Saint Bernard turned dog turn evil thanks to rabies from a bat bite. It's an extremely tragic book, centring on the Trenton family who is dealing with the fallout of Donna's affair, and the Camber family who is frequently abused by patriarch Joe. While the two families are handling their own separate issues, Cujo's illness spreads and eventually threatens the lives of both the Trentons and Cambers. It was eventually adapted into a slightly less bleak movie starring Dee Wallace, Daniel Hugh Kelly, and Danny Pintauro.

The connection between Cujo and Rattlesnakes isn't clear as of now and there is no release date for the film.
