Purely Joyful Movie!

Close shines in drama with strong language, adult themes.

Just so I don't forget, 'CONTAINS SPOILERS!'. I like how the movie started with the couple being attacked by a Dog Soldier in the tent. That was pretty decent. But, what I love most about this movie is the fact that it is an original idea. Not many movies these days are something original, It's either a remake or based off a book of some kind which even if the movie is really good, that does get kind of annoying just like this long review I'm writing. Another thing I love about this movie is the HUGE lack of CGI... that makes me so happy to see how much work and effort this team put into making this movie awesome! I honestly don't care for CGI, and if I ever make my horror script into my own film, it WILL NOT have any either, all makeup and props only. The only thing that I don't agree with on this movie is how fast a Dog Soldier can heal. it's like, instantly. Other than that, I don't think I have too many spoilers, but I rather be safe than sorry... I just wish they would make that Fresh Meat sequel I've been reading about for the last decade. If they do, I will love it too! also, this movie should have gotten a 7/10 star rating at least. and THANKS to whoever takes the time to read this review, sorry if it's a waste for you.

After having to be put thru crap like "Twilight" that completely sh*** on the myth of both vampires AND werewolves, this is a great gulp of refreshing air. Dog Soldiers goes back to making werewolves evil, grumpy and most importantly SCARY again. One of the reviews on the copy of my DVD calls this movie "Predator meets Jaws" and that's an apt description. I won't go into depths so I don't ruin anything for people who haven't seen this awesome lil fright flick yet. But if you haven't, what the hells wrong with you. You are definitely missing out. There is plenty of gore, and for the most part, it's realistic. My only real complaint about the movie is that sometimes, the accents of the actors are really heavy and hard to understand. For most of the movie, when the werewolves are shown, their mostly hidden by shadows. When we do actually get good shots of what they look like, we can see why this is. Although not horrible looking, they do look pretty fake. All in all, this is an awesome lil indie flick. You'd do yourself a great disservice if you never gave this a chance.

I overlooked this in the past as I though there's no way us brits can match Hollywood for effects... especially in a horror movie...Anyway, one day whilst nursing a sports injury... I felt drawn to watching this as another movie I intended to watch kept 'buffering'!Enough about me :) ... the movie:Absolutely excellent. The lead actor is superb... easy to like him and the action is plentiful with no boring scenes in the movie... the scenes without action are still engaging or funny.Twists, turns, great acting and pumping action10/10 movie

This 2002 horror film stars Sean Pertwee, Kevin McKidd, Ian Cunningham, Emma Cleasby, Darren Morfitt and Chris Robson. This takes place in Scotland where a squad of army soldiers on a training exercise become attacked by werewolves in the wilderness. Pertwee (Gotham) plays Sergeant, Wells, McKidd plays Private, Cooper aka "Coop," Cunningham (Game of Thrones) plays Captain, Ryan, Cleasby plays Zoologist, Megan, Morfitt plays Private, Witherspoon aka "Spooner," and Robson plays Private, Joe. This is pretty good, the cast is decent and there's good make-up effects. If you enjoy werewolf/horror flicks, I recommend checking this one out.
