The Pack

The Breed, Burning Bright and now The Pact! The list is growing, movies where people are trapped inside the house with the enemy surrounding the place and finding its way in, are plenty, but how many out there, are good? I never cared much for The Grey, I am a huge Liam Neeson fan, but still, that one was way unrealistic, probably even for a sci-fi film. So, as horror has it lately, bring on the indies, the low budget projects, the little gems, movies that manage to take you by surprise and offer a good 80-90 minutes worth of thrill and suspense. Now don't get me wrong, The Pack is no masterpiece and it does have its holes, but still, it was a pleasure watching it. No real explanation will be offered, typical, I know, and this one builds very little to itself as it jumps straight to action. I think they worked OK as a family, the dialogue was decent, the acting good, effects simple tho hitting the spot and a good execution to a quite used plot. More to say about it? It is shorter than most, just 80 minutes here of watch, doesn't bring any new elements to the story, doesn't act dumb either, so all in all, I graded it a 4. It was better than most, not a bad movie, just a decent watch! Cheers!

The dad shoots one of the wolves through the front door. The wolf whimpers and then there's silence. The dad slowly opens up to find blood on the porch but no body. Keeping the door open, he does the ever-typical move of assuming it must've ran off and died by turning around, shrugging, before being tackled from behind. Dumb, dumb, dumb. And all too typical. An earlier part isn't quite as dumb because he wouldn't've been able to outrun the wolves, but still, it's unrealistic to just stand there and not even try. I'm talking about the agent taking a leak in the woods after his visit to the house. Most of all, how hungry would these animals be after a full meal of the agent in the latter part of the day. Almost the entire movie takes place over the course of only one day and they just keep picking individuals off: the old couple at the beginning just the night before, then the agent in the afternoon, then the cop that night.
