Although it has its amusing moments, in eneral the plot does not convince.

Too much about the plot just didn't add up, the writing was bad, some of the scenes were cringey and awkward,

It really made me laugh, but for some moments I was tearing up because I could relate so much.

A CG earth is struck by a CG comet leaving behind green glowing embers that causes wolves and dogs to get their own ideas about animal rescue. As pets turn wild, only Rosalyn (Tristin Mays) the unlikely daughter of two very white adults, knows how to use a knife to fight off canines.This is made for TV movie in the SyFy unofficial series of " Making fun of classic novels." "Night of the Comet" would have been a better name, but it was already done and better.I just didn't feel the terror. A film you can watch for free on TV and then forget.

Did any of the good citizens see the cats high up in the trees? Generally dogs don't climb trees. Cats do. These cats had enough sense to get as high above the ground as possible! If I look up and see hundreds of cats in a local tree they'll soon have company. ME!! And no entry here has mentioned the cats!

One of the main characters is named "Rosalyn". We get it - Rob Morrow was in Northern Exposure.How did they get Rob Morrow & Kelly Rutherford in this cheap flick? Decent quality b flick (on Netflix) if yer bored.Same cheap toy shotgun in every scene requiring a gun. Some poorly directed WTF scenes...when the blind guy is hit by the car, the crowd gathers around him, but no one around the car that hit him? JV movie making. When Rosalyn is driving the pickup, they do a bad job of faking her driving.Pretty good job of faking dog/human fights.Always enjoy videos with dogs so glad i watched it.

As though being B-movie low budget horror isn't challenging enough, Night of the Wild opts for canine cast for its monstrosity. Animal use in cinema must be handled delicately, and it's certainly not a level of polish this movie has. Meanwhile, the on-screen characters are ridiculously superficial which makes the production seems more incapable of delivering any convincing scene either with beast or men.A quiet small town is changed by a fallen meteor, now all the domesticated animals act strangely and violently. The least shallow human character is the main female Rosalyn (Tristin Mays), there's an effort to create backstory on this girl. She also performs well with the dog, but the silly script often relies on repetitive unimaginative running back and forth, thus making her like random sorority girl for most of the time.The rest is a jumbled mess of shrieking and absolute abysmal acting. It's apparent that the scenes with dogs are pasted in without much consideration. This flaw especially rings true when they have to do a continuous scene. Characters would scream in terror, walk casually or initiates awkward conversations, then resumes the supposed extreme condition with misplaced calmness.The poor editing even makes the scene disorientating as though they place the sequences incorrectly. People would fall over or get munched suddenly, then the blood would be on the wrong side, and there's a delay on their reaction. It's even worse when the said characters make such stupid decisions, there's not a hint of working common sense at play here, a remarkable example of poor acting combined with insipid script.This is almost like watching a badly programmed AI in video game where they wander off into random places and mumble some poorly scripted line, oblivious on their impending doom. At half way through it becomes tedious run across mindless screaming and barking, with some blood sprinkled here and there.Night of the Wild is a dull showing of laughable acting skill and unremarkable monster in dogs painted with fake blood, which disintegrates further into nonsensical noises and howls.
