    Storyline

    Edit
    When the bad boy John inherits an isolated house in an island, he invites his brother and student of veterinary Matt and his girlfriend Nikki together with their common friends Sara and Noah to fly with him in his hydroplane and spend a couple of days having good time in the place. Later Sara is attacked by a dog and they recall that in the other side of the island there was a facility for training dogs that had been shutdown to avoid a rabies outbreak. While walking through the woods, they find a man called Luke, who sailed with his girlfriend Jenny to the island, covered of blood and Luke is killed by a pack of hounds. The group runs to the house and the animals put the place under siege, and they try to find a means of escape. When the survivors reach the compound, they disclose that the dogs have been genetically redesigned to become a breed of killers. —Claudio Carvalho, Rio de Janeiro, Brazil

    • Trivia
      Twenty-nine dogs and ten trainers were used for this film. The trainers spent eight weeks prepping the dogs for the movie.
    • Goofs
      When the people see the dogs on the dock by the plane, the plane is safely tied up. About ten seconds later, when they look at the plane again, it is untied and way out in the river. There is no way the dogs could've chewed through the rope and let the plane drift that far out that quickly.

    Wild dogs make this movie a really scary movie
    I liked two points in this movie. First wild dogs that really made me fear during the movie and the struggle of young people to get out of this trouble.They use their brain and prepare some plans based on their mental level.

    It was one of the best horror movies I have ever seen.Wild dogs can make a movie more scary than strange creatures can do.I think, it is because of the reality, that is, wild dogs are real things and really exist in our life and everyone is afraid of wild dogs but some creatures which are used in horror movies do not exist in real life and this property reduces the level of impression we can get during the movie.
