Review Summaries
"A British Squad is sent on a training mission in the Highlands of Scotland against a Special Operations squad. Ignoring the childish "campfire" stories heard about the area, they continue with their mission and come across the bloody remains of the Special Ops Squad, and a fierce howling is pitching the night sky... With two mortally wounded men, they make an escape, running into a zoologist by the name of Megan - who knows exactly what hunts them. What began as what they thought was a training mission turns into a battle for their lives against the most unlikely enemies they would have expected - werewolves. Setting up camp in the only house for 50 miles around, the men attempt to survive the night and fight off the wolves. One by one, the men ae picked off until only three remain standing. "

"A group of soldiers are sent into the Scotland Highlands on a training mission only to find a special ops team completely obliterated except for their leader. The Sergeant and his team in training rescue the special ops officer and obtain shelter in an abandoned farmhouse. The enemy that continues to attack is a pack of werewolves which the soldiers try to fight off with everything available- guns, a sword, knives, fire, and gas. "
