Amazon.co.uk Review

Wes Craven served as executive producer on this direct-to-video chiller about a group of friends who discover that the remote island they've chosen as a vacation spot is home to a wild pack of attack dogs. After dispatching a sailboater and his bikini-clad girlfriend, the canines (which look more cuddly than ferocious) pick off the interloping friends with all-too-human cunning; the survivors have just enough time to discover that the mutts are the product of military genetic experiments to create unstoppable attack dogs. Director Nick Mastrandrea (a longtime production associate of both Craven and George Romero) lends a professional look to his debut feature, and gets decent performances from his cast (which includes Lost's Michelle Rodriguez, Taryn Manning, and Oliver Hudson), but the script is tired almost from page one, and the resulting action and gore do little to help this indie picture stand out from the rest of the horror crowd. Dog lovers with soft hearts should be forewarned that the CGI stand-ins for the animal actors endure some gruesome abuse in the course of the picture. –-Paul Gaita, Amazon.com

Synopsis

A group of friends visit an exotic, isolated island for a relaxing holiday. However, their peace is threatened by a seemingly abandoned dog-training facility also on the island. The friends, comprised of John, his brother Matt, Nicki, Sara, and Noah, fly into the island on a seaplane with the sole aim of enjoying themselves. This is disrupted when Sara is bitten by a dog. Matt tells Nicki that there had been reports that the dog-training facility on the island had been forced to shut down a year previously due to an outbreak of a disease and all the dogs were put down. The group soon find this not to be the case and are quickly besieged by aggressive dogs, leaving them having to devise a plan to escape the island with their lives. Nicholas Mastandrea makes his directorial debut with this slick but terrifying offering. Michelle Rodriguez, who plays Nicki, athletically attempts to evade the snarling dogs, something she excelled at in RESIDENT EVIL. Legendary horror maestro Wes Craven produced the film.

2.0 out of 5 stars Bad Dog, 7 Feb 2008

By	Stevie G "Stevie G" (Manchester, England) - See all my reviews (TOP 1000 REVIEWER)

To be fair I wasnt expecting much from this film. Group of friends go out to a secluded island to party, then get attacked by wild dogs. Its hardly Wes Cravens greatest idea, and a setup thats probably been done hundreds of times.

The film does itself no favours when the dogs in most scenes dont look rabid or mutated in the slightest. Just normal dogs, with a bit of red around the mouth. It just seems very silly and far fetched. When its done with tongue in cheek it can work, but the Breed takes itself far too seriously for that.

3.0 out of 5 stars WES CRAVEN HAS MADE HIS FIRST STINKER OF A MOVIE, 12 Sep 2008

By	R. Szikra (uk) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

The starting is promising but gradually takes a slope downhill. It would have been better if the dogs actually looked like they had rabies (as in Stephen kings 'cujo' which beats this movie by a mile). The acting is 50/50 and not superb. Overall a one watch movie which will catch dust just sitting on your dvd shelf after that

4.0 out of 5 stars The breed, 26 Sep 2008

By	LISA Nelson "Lisa" (Ireland) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

I thought I was buying a movie about Zombies. But It was Feral like dogs.
It is a really good movie and for anyone who slags the woofs, looks at the extra's on the DVD. Most will maybe appreciate the performance of the dogs and the human actors working together.

The Woofs did great job and so did the actors and staff.

The movie was great, OMG and what are they gonna do. I loved it and I would love to see a cat version. Some people don't like dogs, but many are scared of cats.
