 
A band
of soldiers led by Sgt. Harry Wells (Sean
Pertwee) is dispatched to war games in
the woods but then they discover a dead
cow that was thrown in front of them
during a bonfire they have which led to a
rival team that was slaughtered in camp
as they discover that they are not alone
and in great danger.
Something deadly in the darkness is
watching them that is not at all human as
it got to one the survivors from the camp
named Captain Ryan (Liam Cunningham) as
he tries to warn them that these things
can't be stopped.
Soon they are terrorised by these
gigantic beasts claimed to be werewolves
although some of the team members don't
believe in such as thing.
They are all holed up in an abandoned
farmhouse as they battle for their lives
against these ferocious beasts but Wells
is badly injured and is starting to
change and the same with Ryan as their
fears starts to become worst than they
thought as they may not survive before
dawn.
Lots of great fact
and dynamic action in this one with truly
frightening looking giant werewolfs in
the deep dark tall woods.
The film almost looked good enough to be
considered mainstream with the
performances and effects too.
I would recommend people to watch this if
they like creepy looking werewolf movies
like The Howling as the
werewolves couldn't look any better.
The acting is very
well done by a local talented British
cast.
Sean Pertwee really stole the film
with his outrageous performance as the
head captain of his troops. He was rough
and tough with solid energy all the way
through his performance.
Kevin McKidd showed alot of dynamic
energy and knew how to act loud and
aggressive too.
Liam Cunningham was another great
one having a coldlike and evil stern
attitude slowly becoming a werewolf and
knew his part inside out.
Intestines are
revealed on the ground in a forest
A guys intestines are pulled out
Werewolves arms are chopped off
People are eaten up with lots of gore
there.
Plenty of blood.
Neil Marshall does
a wonderful job with this film although
sometimes it's at a quick pace.
He shows a real nice bonfire setting in
the woods with people huddled together
and Sean Pertwee telling a
serious story as well as commanding his
troops.
Then later on we have Darren Morfitt
telling a tale which looked a little
witty and then a dead cow dropped on
their bonfire which will make you jump
and everyone does well at panicking.
Liam Cunningham does well at acting
injured in the woods and has good choked
out words to Pertwee telling him
the werewolves can't be stopped.
We have great shots on the cast running
around in the misty woods shooting
werewolves as they run very fast and a
nice attack scene by one of them on Pertwee
as he reacts fairly well to being in
tense pain.
Nice moment with Kevin McKidd and
Darren Moffitt standing outside
in front of a house by a vehicle pointing
out their rifles as werewolves are
surrounding them and do well at acting
fast by gunning them.
A funny moment with McKidd
trying to do surgery on Pertwee
as Pertwee himself demands him
to punch him out so he won't feel it as
it looked very natural.
Both Pertwee and McKidd
knew how to act physically aggressive
towards Cunningham when he acts
threateningly cold towards them while
slowly turning into a werewolf and shows
perfect evil expressions too.
Emma Cleasby looked good standing in
a hallway sounding not herself and
coldlike as well.
There's a perfect and dark camera setting
on Moffitt when he uses himself
for bait to trap some werewolves throwing
stuff at them too which looked very
suspenseful.
Lots of fast action with the surviving
cast battling out the werewolves in the
house.
Moffitt acted believeably menacing
when he tries to stab a werewolf and do
other things too and a nice shot of him
being picked up and being face to face
with the werewolf.
The music wasn't
too much out there but we have some
silent adventurous classical music
