    • Trivia
      Neil Marshall chose to use dancers as the werewolves instead of the typical stuntmen in order to highlight their grace and elegant movements. The set was also designed size-wise to force the creatures to have to bend a bit upon entering thereby highlighting their statuesque physiques.
    • Goofs
      The group of soldiers are referred to a 'squad'. 'Squad' is not the name given to a small infantry unit in the British Army, it is called a section. Also sections have 8 men minimum, not 6, and generally are commanded by a corporal.
    • Quotes

      Sergeant Harry Wells: We are now up against live, hostile targets. So, if Little Red Riding Hood should show up with a bazooka and a bad attitude, I expect you to chin the bitch.

    • Crazy credits
      During the closing credits b&w photographs are shown from the camera used during the siege in the cottage.

    Excellent
    Dog Soldiers is a dark humoured film in which a group of soldiers are sent on a training exersise in the scottish highlands.

    I'm a huge fan of werewolf and I always see the most important features of a werewolf film is the actual werewolf. This is where Dog soldiers excels. Had the werewolf's been on all 4's the film would not have been so good. Instead what we have is a group of tall hairy scary killing machines who will rip you to pieces and eat you. On the other side we have a group of soldiers who just want to get home for the England football game. The film plays out like night of the living dead.

    I'd rank this the 2nd best Werewolf film I've seen, behind American Werewolf in London.
