Do you think Dog Soldiers should get a sequel? Or should it remain a stand-alone cult classic?
Stand-alone
Stand alone.
Also, wouldn't doomsday be a good cult movie to review?
Hell yeah!!! And hey this is the first time I arrived on a video! Neat huh
Sequal
Haven't seen the video, but I know there had been updates about a sequel, but it seemed to have not panned out, and information about it had been pulled from the site advertising it.
The person who suggested this movie has good freaking taste
Indeed the movie is amazing
Great debut of a great filmmaker, Hellboy was just a misstep
yes!. great request
Yeah, but I kinda like it more when Brandon does the more obscure movies: there's not much to add to the 144 other reviews i've seen of it
@@bassliveevil nobody's perfect
Also if I die in a horror movie, I wanna go out like Spoon. Fists flying and spitting right in the monsters face.
Don't forget telling the monster that you hope give the shits
@@wolfmantheimpaler Best line in the movie!
Lister: You said yourself. I can't stop it. Let's get this over with. [grabs a pipe]
Rimmer: Lister, what's that for?
Lister: I'm going out as I came in, screaming and kicking.
Rimmer: You can't just whack Death on the head!
Lister: If he comes near me, I'm gonna rip his nipples off!
And ending up as a mess on the floor as the dog watches.
No disrespect to Spoon!
Spoon was the real hero of that movie 🥺
You missed out the best line of the film: "There's no way I'm going to break radio silence because you lot got spooked by an F'in' dead flying cow!"
Meagan: *MOVE YOUR FUCKIN' ARSE SOLDIER!!!*
Spoon: I love it when posh birds talk dirty!
Best line 'If Little Red Riding Hood comes over that hill with a bazooka and a bad attitude i expect you to chin the bitch'
@@cameronmonaghan6883 Since you put B.B. Hood into my head again...Darkstalkers:The Movie made by this director would be interesting.
😆
@@weldonwin I mean he's not wrong
I really like Spoon's fight in the kitchen especially. He puts up a good fight against overwhelming odds through sheer aggression and desperation alone.
And I stand by my statement that if that second werewolf hadn’t shown up he would have won
The actor was a boxer in real life
Not to mention he even had the guts to spit in the werewolf’s face and insult it.
this movie made the soldiers act like real soldiers.
He is the archetypal British squaddie.
Fun fact the werewolfswere played by dancers to give the werewolfs more fluid movement
Something else it shares with Aliens, since all the Xenomorph suit actors were dancers, to give them smooth, fluid motions, especially when they were crawling or bounding on the walls
@@weldonwin yea it’s cool how they do it
Another fun fact , the people who did these werewolf suits also did the ones for the Underworld movie .
@@ds2781 Another fun fact when Sarge is about to sacrifice himself he looks at a picture of his wife little does the audience know it’s actually the director’s sister
Werewolves*
Dog Soldiers timeline:
2002 - "Wow! What a surprisingly great film! I did not Expect that!"
2008- "Have you seen Dog Soldiers? You gotta check it out!"
2012- "Dog Soldiers is required viewing for horror fans"
2016- "Have you seen Dog Soldiers?" "Of course"
2020- "Dog Soldi--" "YES! WE KNOW!!!"
It's an often overlooked detail, but this movie has in my opinion the best setup for a monster movie universe.
I think it was Ryan who asked a question like this:
"Now that you know that Werewolves are real, can you ever go to sleep not wondering what else is out there?"
Yeah, Megan says: "If they're real, then what else is?"
That's because in Marshall's original plan the lead of "Dog Soldiers" was supposed to go on and face other creatures like vampires and mummies in the following movies. Alas, it never happened.
Sean Pertwee was actually drunk for that scene in the bed, and the punch ended up knocking him out. McKidd didn't pull his punch lol.
Sean Pertwee is a legend, just like his Dad, Jon, the third and greatest Doctor!
Really?
"There was only supposed to be one." Well it *is* set in Scotland, maybe he was referring to Highlander.
You're absolutely right!!
He should review that too
@@smithwesson1896 Highlander 2, is the best one!
said no one ever...
@@vertigo4236 I say that to make my dad twitch
Werewolf: the Quickening ?
The male "trainspotting extra" on the camping trip was played by Craig Conway, he was also cast as Scar the main Crawler in The Descent and played Sol in Doomsday.
Doomsday was surprisingly fun. I gotta watch that again, and hope Brandon reviews it. If it has a big cult appeal.
@@louisduarte8763 I love that Doomsday was a film built around one scene. "What if a medieval knight and a modern soldier were to fight" then came up with a story they could fit that scene into. It works surprisingly well and I love it.
@@TheRevDel That and the dozens of homages to movies like Escape from New York and Mad Max.
Funny he didnt mention McKidd was a main cast member of Trainspotting (unless i missed it!)
and Craig Conways english so the Trainspotting reference is totally irrelevant.
Speaking as someone from the UK we generally use what the Americans think of as swearing more as punctuation, when we're angry we use the really nasty words.
And if we don't swear at all, then that might mean shit's really going down.
Oooh, you mean like "crap"?
@@DerpDevilDD IS this from the nation that thinks "poo" is too risque and so infantalise it to become "poop".
The F bomb truly is general purpose in British English, it acts as verbal punctuation, and emphasiser, modifier and an exclamation.
@@jon-paulfilkins7820 Just "English", we don't need a qualifier its our language.
So this how Alfred trained before becoming the Waynes butler.
Plus, he's also the one who trained Soap MacTavish
I feel I have to point out that "crazy Gary Busey" is redundant. It's like "unstable Nick Cage".
Have you seen Nic Cage in "Color out of Space"? Great movie with a great unstable Nic Cage.
Have yet to see the non-crazy Gary Busey
@HunkerInThe CoofBunker "NOT THE BEES!"
I feel that the world missed out in not having a action buddy-flick with these two. Just toss a big bag of cocaine into the room and watch the magic happen!
@@grimdolo918 OMG - just thinking about it makes my head hurt!
A badass movie with one of the most unsettling scenes, I cringe everytime the sword is pushed against m Kidd's teeth.
There's a very similar scene in The Outpost with a bayonet that's equally unsettling.
The sound effects really make it.
I really have to wonder how much the "Dog Soldiers" are able to think. 'cause in some parts it really seems like they are carefully plotting and scheming.. but... if so... why are they automatically evil?
@@marhawkman303 I think the assumption is that they are mostly in predator mode with bits of human coming through every now and then.
So this is an early 2000s horror movie that takes place in UK?
It's a good thing that these soldiers had to deal with werewolves, and not just a bunch of angry people infected with a rage virus.
Love both movies
or fighting sea monsters called grabbers
Or mermaids...
Those movies go good together.
It's a good job they didn't have to contend with a blockade of refineries, empty roads and petrol at £1 a litre.... that was horrific.
Holy shit, considering how massive the film was--and still kind of is--here in the UK, my brain is utterly bumfisted that it didn't have a wide cinema release in the US. It might be Neil Marshall's best film, actually.
I watched it on the SciFi channel (as it was known then).
Yeah international films getting a spotlight is a rarity in the U.S. unless it's a drama or a biopic.
I wish I could have seen it in a theatre! That would have been awesome.
Well, you can rest easy knowing it's easily the best sci-fi original movie (such as it is) ever made.
@@TheBrandonTenold It definitely is! lol When I saw it coming on and being advertised as a Sci-Fi "original" I was both offended for everyone involved in making it, and laughing at that channel because they wish they could make a film that good. I've seen a couple of other "originals" that they just bought the rights to that were also pretty good. I think one of them was called Splinter.
Don’t anyone dare blaspheme. Dog Soldiers is one of the best werewolf movies since Wolf.
Have any of you seen HOWL?
@@OmarrMcinnis yeah, a great movie.
I dunno, Ginger Snaps (2000) was pretty rock solid before Dog Soldiers came along.
Sorry to necro old comment but once this showed up in recommendations i was thinking i really should have double feature of ginger snaps and dog soldiers one night. Roughly from same era of filmmaking and budget, werewolves but very different take...and its been some 15 years i last saw ginger snaps and i think decade i rewatched dog soldiers. Should be fun trip down the memory lane. Either that or rewatch elves for kazillionth time xD
Best line in the movie:
(Sean Pertwee looks down at his own freshly disembowelled guts and calmly states): “Sausages”.
"I hope I give you the shits, you fucking wimp" comes a close second.
That was probably his opinion as an actor about the effect. :D They look like they really used sausages for the guts. Maybe he was being sarcastic to the director.
i expect nuthin' but gratuitous violence from the 'lot of ya!!
@@SwiftNimblefoot great obs! Same here too...guts look like haggises doused literally with HP Sauce
@@SwiftNimblefoot It's a dog reference - one of the myriad sprinkled throughout the film. There's an old1970s meme in the UK of a little terrier growling the word 'zauzagez' and it was referenced in a Wall's sausages advert in the early 90s. So, yeah, in the UK in the late 20thC, dogs said "sausages" and that's your gag.
The holy trinity of modern werewolf movies
-Bad Moon
-Dog Soldiers
-Ginger Snaps
Howl is pretty good too.
My top-3 is slightly different:
-Dog Soldiers
-Ginger Snaps 2
-Late Phases
@Pedro Sepulveda like your love life?
@Move_I_Got_This that's opinion, definitely not fact!
The holy trinity of werewolf movies is the Ginger Snaps trilogy
The music Megan plays on the piano is 'Clair de Lune' ('Light of the Moon') by Debussy. So keeping in line with popular tunes written about the moon used in werewolf movies, just from the late 1800s/early 1900s.
Another one of those movies that's perfect for Brandon but surprised he hasn't reviewed it yet.
Well now I have!
Fun facts: Megan referred to the family as 'kind people' but later in the film there are bodies hanging in the larder. And that _wasn't_ pork or lamb in the stew bubbling on the stove...
Also: the bodies in the larder were props from Event Horizon, starring Sean Pertwee.
You should be ashamed,diet shaming those poor people eaters.
That explains why one of the soldiers (Joe or Spoonie) puked on captain Ryan after eating it.
A Werewolf movie with Lucius Vorenus, Ser Davos and Alfred Pennyworth from Gotham with lots of gratuitus violence, even more british cussing and great special make-up werewolf effects.
What's not to like?
The fact that you don't want any of these guys to die. I give full credit for that one. Cooper's whole bit about football to Ryan sells that.
Absolute perfection
Huh, that's Alfred? I never known the actor before Gotham.
@@SwiftNimblefoot Sean Pertwee is a veteran character actor,who has appeared in tons of mostly british movies & tv-shows,but yeah most people know him from ''Gotham''.
He's one of these guys,you don't remember his name but you definetely recognise his face,specially if you watch lots of british productions,he always pops up.
@@doublep1980 He's also in Event Horizon, which - if you haven't seen it - is absolutely worth a watch, despite the behind the scenes issues (about half an hour of footage was cut by the studio and they rushed it out the door because Titanic was running late; when they looked into doing a directors cut, most of the cut footage was lost).
This is without a doubt one of the best werewolf movies outside of An American werewolf in london, The WolfMan and Howling
It’s certainly right up there, and I warms my heart knowing more people are finding out about this awesome take on the werewolf movies
Let's not forget Wolf Cop. 😁
It's right up there with them, for sure. One of my top picks! The top 5 are difficult to put into order for me. I found it years ago for rent at a Blockbuster and the box alluded to monsters, but didn't give away the werewolf part really. I've been telling people about this film for years and since I bought it, I show it to anyone who hasn't seen it. If they saw it on the Sci-Fi channel, I tell them to watch it again because a lot of the fantastic dialogue and one liners (and even some of the gore) have been edited out.
I'd also say Ginger Snaps is an amazing Werewolf movie
"Come And Have A Go If You Think Yer Hard Enough!" If you haven't seen Dog Soldiers then you need to see Dog Soldiers
The part where the pet dog has Sarges gut in his mouth and is tugging on them is pure gold lol
This. Why did you skip this part?
And just like “Silver Bullet”, this is another underrated werewolf movie that really stands out from the rest!
Plus, anyone else think this would make an amazing video game?
Whoever choose this movie has great taste in movies!(And yeah, since no one saw the 2019 Hellboy movie I don’t blame the director; plus a director who’s inspirations are Sam Rami and John Carpenter, my kind of guy)
some of us have seen HB:2019.....the less said, the better.
11:53, that scene was an homage to Jurassic Park, where Nedry tries to escape the Dilophosaurus, but ends up getting killed instead.
Price: "What the hell kinda name is Soap?"
Soap: "Well, I kind of slipped through the claws of death and a dozen werewolves, so..."
As someone who lives in Newcastle it's really inspiring to see someone who grew up in the same city as me go on to make films like this. I'd definitely say that Dog Soldiers is the best Werewolf film to show someone who's never seen a Werewolf film. Sure the Wolfman is a classic and An American Werewolf in London is an amazing film, but this one I feel has the most energy that, like you said, helps to hook modern audiences.
While not a Geordie, I grew up in Newcastle and I have to agree.
Co Durham here. It's also nice to have a north east accent properly done in things!
@@stevieg3761 Sunderland here. Again, I agree. They sounded like people I would know.
A great movie, but American Werewolf in London would definitely be the one to show imo.
@@Kevinacharles To me that film is better, but I showed it to someone who was getting into horror and they were underwhelmed by how much time is just spent with the characters without much Werewolf action, this I think has more re-watch value for audiences today with all the action and faster pacing.
I was introduced to this movie by some British Soldiers, while we were deployed to Iraq.
This movie had the most terrifying Werewolves ever put to screen. *Change my mind.*
American Werewolf In London might be a competitor but I’m tempted to agree
Bad Moon. Most badass werewolf ever👍
Nope The Howling did, that's why this film copied their design.
as much as i loved the Werewolves in Dog Soldiers i'd say the one briefly seen in Cabin In The Woods is more terryfying due to it being more realistic.
@DarkBullet 32 goodness gracious me.
Considering that Cooper's actor is the same man who provided the voice for Soap MacTavish in the Call of Duty games, i believe Dog Soldiers is the canonical answer to the question "How'd a muppet like you pass Selection?".
I frickin' *LOVE* this movie! With the exception of "Howling 4," this is my absolute favorite werewolf movie. _We'll never forget you Spoonie!_
"there is no spoon"
Kevin McKidd will always be best known here for playing Tommy in Trainspotting.
Tommy!
He’s also soap mctavish in cod
Yep - when i watched that movie Tommy scared me straight!
@@dawnatkinson7704 I wish that Trainspotting had that effect on me. I was clubbing and raving with the fun stuff when that came out. It was later 2000/2001 on that I started smoking heroin on a comedown. That led to a year battle of using-clean-using. I've lost untold friends like Tommy. Clean several years now.
You missed two classic lines in this movie. "Fetch!" and Megan's last words before changing "It's that time of the month".
And when sarg loses his guts we get, "put them back in", "I'm trying but they don't fuckin' fit" lol.
"Hey look sausages" is another one
I thought this movie was bloody enough
Dog Soldiers, ah good times.
Also brings back memories of Sci-Fi channel horror movie marathons right before they went to shit:
4:00 pm Dog Soldiers
6:00 pm Frankinfish vs Zombie Elvis
8:00 pm Dog Soldiers
10:00 pm Mega-Sharktapus vs Robo-Lassie
Midnight: Dog soldiers
Ok, not going to lie,
I DEFINITELY wasn't expecting you to make a review on this
This film has easily the most accurate depiction of British soldiers (the regulars, not the bullshit special unit) in any film ever. The British Army are fantastic lads to work alongside, I'd rather have them alongside me in a fight than anyone else.
Also, your crack about killing animals during training is accurate. British Forces ARE trained to kill small animals, for sustenance.
The sense of humour is very accurate. I once talked to a Padre who told me about a conversation he'd had with some 2 Para who had been at Goose Green: 4 mates had fought through a particular position, but only 3 survived. After the battle, the three went back to check the position and found their mate's body. They stood in silence for a few seconds looking down at him, and then one remarked, "That'll teach him to fart in church."
@tomsdottir The Padre at HMS Raleigh told us a story about a lad who he was asked to give last rights to, and he was a mess of barely attached limbs, blood and gore. Padre started talking to the lad, who burst out laughing, before saying "Ey! Sir! I'm the flag of the Isle of Man...with bollocks!!!" before dying shortly after.
Now I know what Soap Mactavish was doing before he joined the S.A.S and met Captain Price
I guess that’s how a muppet like him passes through selection
A favorite of mine. The full body costumes were pretty exceptional especially for the budget
This is one of my favourite films of all time. Great characters, doesn't take itself too seriously but at the same time a lot of love and effort put into it. A lot of great moments and great lines. Sean Pertwee's speech is up there with Quint in Jaws and Al Powel in Die Hard. The Cast commentary on the DVD is so much fun. Thanks for the Review BT.
This is easily one of my favorite horror movies and one of my go to movies. The cast, the violence, the comedy and the werewolves are all top tier
(hint they made some nice DOG SOLDIERS wolfie figures, they are still out there, if your so inclined to such trappings.) (cast iron skillet accessory, not included.)
Still got mine in the box
@@ghostface320 the wise choice. i did in turn make a iron skillet and and and a hot dog, bun and all for them to hold (please take a moment to look at yours, the hand placement and the open mouth is exceptionally geared for hot dog consumption.. just right up to the mouth in pantomime of the very act... (sadly no pics, mine is packed away in the toy treasure vaults)
I loved those figures! I got two of them!
17:27 the werewolf that knocks the lighter out of the sarges hand is actually Megan because it's missing an eye, kind of hard to tell that she got shot in the eye
3:44, Sean Pertwee from GOTHAM and Event Horizon! Another reason to watch this movie.
He’s also radec in killzone 2
You should also watch HOWL
he's also the son of the guy who played the Third Doctor
One of the best werewolf movies ever made. The newspaper report at the end was a nod to the trashy British newspapers like The Daily Sport. In the late 80s and 90s they would often have stories like, "I slept with a vampire" or "An alien stole my baby" and other ludicrous headlines that everyone just laughed at and ignored.
Kevin McKidd played Lucius Vorenus (Rome) & Liam Cunningham played Davos Seaworth (Game of Thrones) are in this film? Bloody nice!
Dog Soldiers was easily my favorite werewolf movie of all time, memorable characters, fast action, great practical effects, I would LOVE to see a sequel made
Werewolves in Scotland Meet The Predator plus a lot of hunters become the hunted 80s and 90s movies.
The perfect name for the sequel would be "Dog Face Pony Soldiers".
It's a land rover. Not a jeep
a land ROVER seems fitting for Dog Soldiers.
@atd8vii I get it. Maybe the original script called for .303s.
@@10GaugeManiac I get it.
one day I hope you cover Gingersnaps, that’s another werewolf movie with a cult following!
And questionable sequels...
I have to watch it again. I really didn't like it when I watched it years ago. I can't remember why I didn't but I was quite young at the time so I want to give it another go
Absolutely!!!!!!!!!!
FUUUUUUUUCK no. The Werewolf sucks in that one. Bad and Bald and Quadruped. No thanks. The story and plot rock but the Werewolf is disappointing, much like Late Phases...
@@Welsh_Dragon756 I didn't care for it the first time I saw it, either. But watching it a second time with a different group of people, I could kind of ignore the weird choice for the werewolf design and just appreciate the story and the acting. Ginger Snaps is now one of my favorites. Howl is another good one with a werewolf that has a bit of an odd design.
I actually said out loud to myself....
Where the hell is my boy with canadian awesome film reviews?
And here you are.
I am so happy to see Brandon reviewing this . This is one of those movies I've always thought he would have already reviewed and yet hadn't up until know. Also I never knew the guy who did dog soldiers also went on to do centurion! Do my favorite movies by the same director.
One of the absolute best werewolf films easily on par with other greats like an American Werewolf in London, and The Howling
Fun fact:
Megan is briefly seen in her werewolf form with her eye still having being blown out.
Where?
@@TheEnigmaticBM39 There’s a scene in the film where they show all 3 of the costumes & they modified 1 where her shot out eye is visible for a couple seconds at the final Werewolf fight.
She is also the Werewolf that Smacks the lighter out of the hands of the Sergeant.
Yeah, great film from a time where it seemed for a moment that Britain could be a cool little factory for genre films. But hey ho, least we got what we got.
And no, no sequel please.
Dog Soldiers is basically a British version of "Predator" - confident soldiers go on a mission, only to find the genre of the movie has changed on them. It actually ranks pretty high on my list of favorite movies.
Hey that's Sean Partwee the son of Jon Partwee aka The 3rd Doctor from Doctor Who.
If not for Tom Baker, Pertwee would've been my favorite Doctor. 2nd place isn't bad though.
He looks and sounds so much like his dad, when I first saw this I said, "So THAT'S what the Third Doctor cursing would sound like."
“You’re no typical soldier, your line reading is way too dramatic!”🤣🤣
Sean pertwee was in another low budget, and pretty decent, werewolf movie called Howl
Great little film, needs more fans.
Sean: "I was also in Howl."
Me: "Howl...ing?"
Sean: "Just Howl."
Me: "So you in the Howl."
Sean: "Right."
Me: "The Howl...ing?"
Sean: "Shut yer trap, you talky nose twat."
...really...? howl came that...? 😋
Unfortunately, he didn't last very long in that one!
@@ronstreet6706 slightly longer than that deer
I read that Marshall didn't want to make a werewolf movie with soldiers; he wanted to make a soldier movie with werewolves. He succeeded, I think: it's really the banter between the soldiers that helps to set this one apart.
Man, I love your channel and I love this film, I never expected you talking about Dog Soldiers tho.
What a wonderful surprise for international men's day.
I remember actually seeing that premiere on the Sci-fi channel for this movie. Good times. Great memories.
Toffee -nosed means posh, it's a popular description over here in the UK for the upper class or rich, toff comes from it.
So glad you reviewed this movie, its one of my favorite movies.
"Toffee-nosed" means upper-class, posh, snobbish.
"Twat" rhymes with rat, not with rot.
I always took toffee nosed as brown noser
Americans always seem to pronounce it ''twot'' for some reason.
@@darkwoods1954 Yeah...like that mockney from The Boys.
@@fenrismarrodane3289 No definitely posh snob.
A twat is the dictionary term for a pregnant fish, but is used as an insult much like cunt is used elsewhere, as cunt is also used as a term of affection amongst mates.
I remember seeing this when it premiered on the SciFi channel and all I could think was, "Finally, werewolves that look and feel awesome and terrifying."
One of my favorite werewolf movies.
1. Dog Soldiers
2. Bad Moon
3. Trick ‘r Treat/Ginger Snaps 2
Well, now we know what Alfred was doing in Special Forces before moving to Gotham and becoming a badass butler.
*sees Brandon do a review of Dog Soldiers. Proceeds to smash my way through everything in order to watch* Finally! A cult classic I actually rented!!
The drunken cast commentary on the DVD was awesome!
The female that ended up helping and being a werewolf said something like”It’s that time of the month”before changing.
She sure did
One of my all time favourite movies. Thanks for showcasing it.
A sequel?
Tricky to see it happen and still have the magic of the original, but I'd give it a go.
Yeah, basically only one character survived.
I don't know why they haven't made a sequel to this movie? I got it on DVD when it first made it to the states. It's by far one of the better werewolf movies out there,
I love how the movie kinda gives the idea that werewolves can be killed with regular bullets and blades, but they have a healing factor that makes it harder to do so. Which also allows the effect of silver to make sense, as you see it actually burn them like they are allergic to the metal. Kinda like how in Marvel the metal carbonatium is used on people with healing factors, because it nullifies that ability so it would be like a wound that would have to be healed normally or through medical interference.
Side note: most people also know him as "Soap" MacTavish from the Call of Duty: Modern Warfare series
I absolutely love this movie. Spoon is my favorite character. That man literally goes hand to hand survival mode on a Werewolf. It's one of my all-time favorites.
Up there with American Werewolf in London and Howling as the top three Werewolf movies.
Not sure if anyone has said this yet. But Sean Pertwee is actually Jon Pertwee's son.
And I have enjoyed everything Sean has been in.
I was about to but you beat me to it. Also, is it me or could he actually play his dad's Doctor if he grew out his hair and put on the costume?
@@LibraGamesUnlimited Somebody did actually do a photo edit of Sean from Gotham where they pasted His dad’s hair over his head. And he really did resemble his dad.
@@LibraGamesUnlimited Surprised he hasn't already done it for charity, like Doctor Who does nearly every year.
@@BarbaraEyre Oh you mean that thing like the one they did where the then-current Doctor met FIve? Yeah.
The first time I saw him, I think in this movie, I thought he COULD easily do that.
I remember going to the Seattle premier of this movie. Great film.
Fun Fact: Sean Pertwee was actually drunk during the scene where he is getting patched up and when he tells Cooper to knock him out, the second punch accidentally connects knocking him out.
Yeesh. Method acting.
This Movie is totally not BONE (if no one gets that reference your not true fans)
Bone, Bad. Not very good.
O shut up lol
@Pedro Sepulveda That's a line from the movie
I get it
It's a bezzer film!
Watched this at the cinema in England. Absolutely brilliant. The Spoony actor plays a rebel that gets killed in that salt planet battle in Last jedi. I still hold hope that he comes back as a Geordie force ghost.
This movie scared the hell put of me when I was a kid! Best looking Werewolves except for Bad Moon🌙 just my opinion tho❤
Totally agree bud 👍
It's great, they totally copied the design of the werewolves from The Howling tho.
I always liked the werewolf design in Van Helsing with Hugh Jackman. I know its not a horror movie but still.
@@scottneil1187 not even
I agree! One of the costumes sold at auction (I totally missed it) for like $1000 (I believe). I would have bought one if I knew.
Never too late for a sequel to this classic.
Damn a dsp reference. Love it.
I feel like a sequel will splatter CGI everywhere
"Werewolves ate my platoon" 😆 I ❤ this movie.
i love the thumbnail art for this one
I went to see Dog Soldiers straight after watching Star Wars episode 2 and Dog Soldiers was much, much better than the other movie.
"They'll have *your* bollocks for breakfast!
Hard boiled or fried, Sarge?
Scrambled"
Favorite line from this movie.
I’m still waiting for the review of Lady Snowblood 2 😂
Love this movie also recently found your channel and have already binges like 50 episodes love it
SGT Wells is played by Gotham’s Alfred Pennyworth, Sean Pertwee, son of the 3rd Doctor, John Pertwee! Awesomeness.
he was also in 7 days to live with Amanda Plummer
5:09 I love the way the fake cow bounces. It just tickles my funny bone.
Dead Snow. Suburbia. Chopper Chicks and the Slime Ball Bowl-o-Rama. Deadtime stories. Hell comes to Frogtown. Freaks(German AND Alex Winter version). Waxwork 1&2.... And... Castle freak. I can't afford patron bc Rona is fucking my day up but there u go man. Enjoy.
Chopper chicks in zombie Town! 🤣🤣🤣..I haven't seen that for about 15 yrs.lol
YES. This is my favorite werewolf film. So many werewolf films seem more focused on the special effects but less thought is given to the story and character work (which is why I kinda like Silver Bullet despite its shortcomings, and I still gotta see Wolfen and Ginger Snaps, I heard good things about those). And it's impressive how much it stands on its own despite borrowing plot elements from so many other films, in the hands of a different director and crew this might've failed spectacularly, which is why it's a miracle.
As for some of the questions you asked, I always assumed Megan got bitten in the hand during one of the attacks (I remember seeing the camera focusing on her hand in one small bit) and was simply always fascinated with them and finally got the chance to join them.
I also think the werewolves in this film have similar rules to the ones from The Howling, in that silver AND fire can kill them.
Tho, it appears as if getting a headshot is also sufficient enough, but you can always headcanon that Megan turned into a werewolf despite getting shot and died in the later explosion, and the silver letter opener wounded Ryan enough and Cooper shooting him in the head was simple satisfying overkill. There, Cooper shot the dog now, asshole.
