* The trailer for ''Film/TheWaterHorse'' has the titular giant sea monster only scaring off a bulldog. The film, on the other hand, takes a darker turn as the sea monster, already turned violent and wild by the constant threats on its life, ominously rises in front of the barking dog and prepares to kill it before cutting into another scene. The dog isn't seen anywhere after that.
