Much like last year’s Backcountry, Nick Robertson’s The Pack is grounded in the same horror of man versus beast, only this film is about a wild pack of bloodthirsty dogs and the family caught in the middle of their furry shitstorm. When we think of rabid dogs in film, the obvious choice is the Lewis Teague-directed adaptation of Cujo, which is a pretty fantastic take on Stephen King’s novel, using isolation and a dog-turned-monster as the force behind the terror. The Pack feels like it has that same sense of isolation—the family is trapped in their farmhouse—and the trailer is plenty intense, so it’s no doubt an intriguing little film that promises plenty of dog-fueled carnage. Check it out.
Directed by Nick Robertson and written by Evan Randall Green, The Pack hits theaters and VOD on February 5th.
Man’s best friend becomes his worst nightmare when a horde of bloodthirsty wild dogs descends upon a family’s farmhouse in a fang-bearing fight for survival.
It stars Anna Lise Phillips, Jack Campbell, and Kieran Thomas.
Oh yeah.
