Dog Soldiers
2002
***½
Director: Neil Marshall
Cast: Kevin McKidd, Sean Pertwee, Liam Cunningham, Emma Cleasby

A group of soldiers in Scotland run into, what seems, a pack of werewolves. This taut and entertaining horror film doesn't beat around the bush. The cast is thrown into the jaws of death and the tension doesn't ease until it's over. It reminds you of many other films in its genre, but it manages to put a fresh twist on things.
