Plague Dogs. The

Martin Rosen writes and directs this animated adventure based on the novel by Richard Adams. Two dogs, Snitter (voice of John Hurt) and Rowf (Christopher Benjamin), escape from a research institute and go on the run. Both animals have been purposely infected with a deadly virus, and as such, pose a dangerous threat to the human population. As the authorities give chase, the two dogs do their best to find their original owner and dream of a place where they will no longer be harmed by the cruelty of mankind.
