About this deal

The modern werewolf genre has been a durable but malleable one, with the basic tropes proving surprisingly adaptable into a variety of different situations and narratives. There are some lovely effects on show: the helicopter in the beginning, the various gunshots, the howling, upstairs footsteps, bullets whizzing past your head, etc. Either way, these are the exact same soundtracks as in previous versions, with identical strengths and weaknesses (including the same loud popping sounds at a couple of points).

For items that are dispatched using our standard service, we ask that you wait 14 days from the date of dispatch before reporting any items as undelivered.We probably hadn't even seen a trailer or knew anything about the film except what was shown on the poster.

Taking the fairly standard ‘group trapped’ movie trope, and pitting squaddies against werewolves, he crafted a tight, scary, gory and funny film that he’s yet to better. Black level is deep, giving decent frame depth, and hiding good shadow detail; check out the night shoots, or in the cellar or the wardrobe! He explains how his father influenced his love of horror, and then talks about the production of Dog Soldiers, The Descent, Doomsday, and Centurion. And it's a pretty graphic movie -- sometimes too graphic, with one scene having a tug-of-war between a soldier and a dog, using the soldier's own intestines. scratching their heads at that comment I'd refer you first to my original Dog Soldiers Blu-ray review, which explicitly gets into the provenance of that 1080 release from Shout!Most purchases from business sellers are protected by the Consumer Contract Regulations 2013 which give you the right to cancel the purchase within 14 days after the day you receive the item. Everything was then painstakingly cleaned up and graded for high dynamic range (both HDR10 and Dolby Vision are included on the disc). The comparison to James Cameron's "Aliens" with its colonial Marines is a valid one, because these gritty British squaddies can more than hold their own while doing battle with their lethal foes, and keep their sense of humor throughout the combat. Soon the group is set upon by a gang of vicious humanoid wolves whose relentless attacks end up killing and maiming a few of them.
