A British horror movie that is both modern and spooky, two things that often don't go together.
A platoon of soldiers is on general manouevers in Scotland when they find themselves in an area dominated at night by Werewolves.
The tension is ratcheted up gradually, and there are some moments of genuine gore in this effective, reasonably low budget shocker.
Nice to see a British movie in this style instead of being a depressing account of life in a Northern Town.
The acting is proficient, and Sean Pertwee is superb.
The effects are reasonable too.
A good film.
