Warning: Spoilers
The pure reason I decided to watch this film was because of the leading actress that have been a fan of since Resident Evil and Lost, and I guess I was interested when I heard about the plot I wanted to see if it is as bad as it is made out to be by critics. Basically bad boy John (Oliver Hudson) has inherited an isolated lodge house on an island surrounded by woods, and he has invited his veterinarian brother Matt (Eric Lively), his girlfriend Nicki (Michelle Rodriguez), and friends Sara (Taryn Manning) and Noah (Hill Harper) to fly in the hydroplane to spend a few days in the new place. A day or two into their party like ways with drinking, swimming and sunbathing, a stray dog comes along that seems really cute, but then it turns vicious and attacks Sara. They recall that a facility for training dogs is near their area that was known to have closed down due to an outbreak of rabies, and soon enough they realise there are more dogs in the woods that have been infected. A couple, Luke (Nick Boraine) and Jenny (Lisa-Marie Schneider) are seen coming out of the trees covered in blood, and they are quickly killed by the pack of hounds, and they are still hungry for flesh, so the friends run and barricade themselves in the house. They try a few ways to escape, including the phone that has no service, the car that won't start, and the plane that floats away, until eventually they decide to go to the dog facility and find out what happened. They discover that the dogs have not just been genetically enhanced, but redesigned to become a new breed of killer dogs, and they do their best to kill as many of them as possible, but even John and Matt, the last two survivors can't escape. The only entertainment I got was watching Rodriguez looking sexy and being a hard nut, especially with her belly out and stuff, but the story is ridiculous, cute looking dogs turning evil is a B-movie thing that could have worked years ago, but it is just laughable, so the film has terrible acting, awful dialogue, no thrills and no scares, a stupid horror thriller. Poor!
