Monster Mutt is a 2010 American independent family comedy film directed by Todd Tucker and written by Timothy Dolan.

The film stars Rhiannon Leigh Wryn, Bart Johnson, Billy Unger, and Bob Gibson,[1][2][3] and a larger-than-life animatronic puppet of the "Monster Mutt".

The Taylor family children, Ashley (Rhiannon Leigh Wryn) and Zach (Billy Unger) join up with the scientist responsible for his transformation, Dr. Victor Lloyd (Brian Stepanek), to find a cure and return Max to normal.

[4] Designed and built by academy award-winning Drac Studios,[1][2] the character of Monster Mutt is a larger-than-life animatronic puppet requiring five people to control its movements.

[4] Scott A. Johnson of Dread Central wrote that the film soundtrack, as composed and conducted by Chris Walden, was performed by Western Australian Philharmonic Orchestra, and "contains everything one would expect from a movie aimed at kids around ten years old."

Johnson stated that the soundtrack's failure was "in its lack of through-line and 'signature' sound'", but that the tracks did what they were supposed to do, in that it "takes the film, amplifies its emotions, and does so in a way that is kid-friendly.
