At Stream Tracker, we take a pragmatic look at where to watch Sam Peckinpah’s 1971 thriller Straw Dogs — a tense, often brutal portrait of an outsider’s descent into a rural siege. Set in the windswept Cornish countryside, the film follows mild-mannered academic David Sumner as simmering provocations from local men, including Amy’s former flame Charlie, escalate into shocking violence. In this article we’ll sniff out whether Straw Dogs is currently roaming the catalogs of Netflix, Disney+, Prime Video or AppleTV+, and tell you where to stream (or avoid) this controversial classic.

Straw Dogs

Synopsis

A reserved American scholar, David Sumner, marries Amy, a woman from England, and the couple moves to the quiet Cornish village where she grew up to escape the frantic pace of life back home. There, David struggles to fit in as the town’s rougher men, led by Amy’s former lover Charlie, single him out and shun him. What begins as subtle hostility soon hardens into open intimidation, testing David and Amy’s marriage and forcing him to confront the town’s simmering resentments.
