THE BREED
Killer, rabid dogs.
PLOT
A couple out sailing gets lost and winds up on an island where they’re chased by some kind of wild animal, though of course we never see it. The movie then cuts to a group of pretty young things (PYTs) out on the town and heading to the same island for a party. There’s John, his ex-girlfriend Nicky who is now dating his younger brother Matt, his best friend Noah and the girl that his friend kind of likes Sara. While the PYTs are busy partying and drinking too much, Sara finds a puppy and decides to keep him in the house, oblivious to the fact that the dog acts just a little weird. The puppy’s mom comes looking for him and bites Sara. Then Matt decides to tell everyone the story about how a puppy breeder once lived on the island and all of their dogs were struck with rabies.
TRIVIA
Ian Some holder (“Lost”) was cast in the film. Before they actually began filming, he signed off the project.
THOUGHTS
I have to admit that I saw this movie once before on television, but I didn’t start watching until halfway through. When I saw this on Netflix, I honestly didn’t even remember watching it before. That doesn’t bode well for a movie.
Honestly though The Breed isn’t that terrible of a movie. Granted it’s a movie about rabid dogs with a super disease that makes them crazy, but it really wasn’t that bed. It kind of reminded me of one of those made for television “horror” movies from the 1990s, not a lot of violence but an easy to follow plot with some mildly likeable characters.
