"One of the Most Explosive and Purely Enjoyable Horror Debuts since The Evil Dead" - Total Film

A band of soldiers is dispatched to war games deep in the woods. When they stumble across a rival team slaughtered in camp, they realize they're not alone. Something deadly is waiting in the darkness: something not animal and not human. Holed up in an abandoned farmhouse, the soldiers start a bloody battle against the beasts. Dawn is only a few hours away but they may not live to see it.

Dog Soldiers is a terrifying chiller in the tradition of Predator and An American Werewolf in London....
