Halloween has to be my favorite time of year and a great time to haul out the DVD "Dog Soldiers". I bought the DVD from Amazon and it has some awesome special features, plus an interview with Kevin McKidd. Amazon also available is the soundtrack

Dog Soldiers (2002)
Six soldiers. Full moon. No chance ...  Personally I wouldn't classify this as a true horror, it needs its own Genre (a new breed of horror), make no mistake I got a fair amount of scares but at the same time they were well balanced by a good amount of laughs.  Probably for the first time we see some really believable werewolves, our characters are well defined and its all followed up by a superbly written witty script.  Kevin as awesome as ever in the role of Pvt Cooper truly a must for any avid fan.

Sequel Rumours
There was talk of a Sequel call "Fresh meat," however it was not going to be written and directed by Neil Marshall. Kevin's character Pvt Cooper was to be a part of the storyline.  When we asked Kevin about this production he confirmed to us that this Sequel is not going to happen (see Updates).

Kevin McKidd also worked well as the hero.

Kevin was totally bowled over that we offered him this, as he normally plays serious parts. His agent said, "You don't want to do anything daft like a werewolf movie", but he said he quite fancied it as it could be fun, so his attitude was just perfect from the start. He was a dream to work with, like Sean.

Lots, lots more up on our forum

take care
