Review of Dog Soldiers (2002) by Kurt B — 12 Jan 2010

Dog soldiers has to be one of the all time greatest British horror movies. The film is full of humour, action and references to other films like Zulu and is filmed in the same sort of plot of a last stand zombie film.

This is one of the few films where I didn?t see the twist coming and when it did it was great. Its acting was also quality with performances from Sean Pertwee and Liam Cunningham being my favourite. The best part of the movie doesn?t really involve any action as such; it?s a part when Sergeant Harry G. Wells (Pertwee) is telling a story about his experiences in the army. He seems to create such a good atmosphere just by telling a story it?s a wonder he hasn?t gone on to star in major films.

I think it?s very difficult to make a decent Werewolf film these days especially one that is taken seriously, this has succeeded in every area for me.
