Good Boy immediately lures you in from its very first frame. Christian (Gard Løkke) is preparing food. He lives alone. Well, there is his dog, Frank. But Frank is a different kind of canine — the human kind. The kind that wears a life-size puppy suit/pajamas and a doggy head while he walks around on all fours and behaves like a well-trained pet. What madness is this, you wonder? Some kind of perverse puppy play? Yes and no. Writer/director Viljar Bøe’s film is part thriller, part dark comedy, and part edgy dating nightmare once Christian starts seeing Sigrid (Katrine Lovise Øpstad Fredriksen).
