A Breed Apart

This is so painfully bad in every way imaginable. The use of horrendous quality CGI in some scenes and AI generated images in others really makes everything feel super disjointed snd sloppy.

The acting is awful, and if I hadn't read the movie description, I would never know it was supposed to be a horror comedy. There are nearly zero funny moments. Other than the ones are just funny because of how bad and cheesy the acting is. The character Collins is especially unlikable and has mostly only cringey interactions throughout.

Very upset and saddened I wasted time and money of this piece of trash. I'm disappointed in every one involved with making this, but more than anything I'm disappointed in me. For paying actually money for one of thr worst movies I have ever seen.

Griff Furst's A Breed Apart is a brutal, pulse-pounding ride that strips away the glitz of influencer culture and replaces it with raw, primal terror. While the premise teases satire, what unfolds is a surprisingly grounded survival horror that keeps its foot on the gas from start to finish.

Violet, portrayed with resilience and grit by Hayden Panettiere, is introduced as a clout-chasing rebel with a love for dogs especially the abandoned and misunderstood. When she's lured to a remote island under the promise of exclusive content and viral fame, she and her fellow influencers find themselves caught in a deadly trap. Their task? Hunt down the island's mythic, man-eating dogs before becoming their next meal.

The genius of A Breed Apart lies in its claustrophobic setting and escalating tension. Furst doesn't waste time; the horror hits early and hard. The island, lush and haunting, becomes a character in its own right its silence broken only by the screams of the hunted and the snarls of predators that have clearly adapted to outwit man.

What makes this film stand out from other creature horrors is its lack of reliance on jump scares. Instead, Furst builds dread organically, drawing on isolation, mistrust among the guests, and the ever-present fear that they've underestimated the intelligence and coordination-of the monstrous canines.

Virginia Gardner and Grace Caroline Currey deliver grounded performances, showing the slow unraveling of personas as survival instincts take over. There's little glamour in this world; even the most polished characters are stripped down to their most desperate selves.

Don't expect a morality tale or a biting satire this is horror through and through. A Breed Apart succeeds by not holding back. It's tense, fast-paced, and violent without apology.

After getting us bored with the cheesy n cheap movies like sharknados, 2 n 3 headed sharks, mega sharks, mega python, giant octopus, bermuda tentacles, mega piranhas, crocosaurus, meth gator, etc we r treated with a much worse movie.

This movie is worse than Syfy original films n Asylum films.

It tries hard but it is clearly made on a B-budget.

The animatronics and CGI dogs r lol.

The movie has too many issues, most notably with the budget and the effects. The CGI is extremely 90s video games quality.

The Pack 1977 did it much better decades ago.

Hayden Panettiere has about a two-minute cameo in the opening, and then we don't see her again until much later and that end scene of her arriving to save the day was so much predictable.

She has gained so much weight that she is wearing loose cargo pants n shirts.

She was much slimmer n hot in Scream 4.

Needless to say that I had of course never heard about this 2025 movie titled "A Breed Apart" prior to getting the chance to sit down and watch it.

The movie's cover, however, just permeates with low budget vibes, so I can't claim that I harbored great expectations to the movie. And any movie that is written, directed and starring the same person is usually not great. But I still opted to give the movie the benefit of the doubt.

"A Breed Apart" was apparently inspired by "The Breed" from 2006. So that counted for something I suppose.

The writers put together a pretty straight forward script. And the narrative was actually not bad, but the insanely poor CGI ruined the movie, hands down.

The acting performances in the movie were actually fair.

The CGI animated dogs in the movie were hilarious to look at. They were so insanely poor animated and rendered that it was unfathomable. I am flabbergasted at how something that atrocious can manage to pass quality control in 2025. Didn't anyone in the CGI or editing department stop up and go "wait a minute, this looks terrible"? It just was difficult to look past the God awful CGI in the movie, especially since the dogs played such a crucial part in the narrative. And the dog that was able to crawl a rope? Well, that was just epic.

I managed to sit through the movie in its entirety, but believe me this is not a movie that will ever grace my screen a second time.

My rating of "A Breed Apart" lands on a generous three out of ten stars.

I think three stars is a little to much for this movie.. Oh my God, the acting is so dull, the CGI.. wow, I have no words to describe how bad is it.. like in a tv series with very low budget form the '90's... We're evolving, but backwards... I don't like to give bad reviews, but I can say something good about this movie... just maybe the idea is ok, but the way it show on the screen is so bad.. I don't know what I can say more, just don't waste your time on this... I'm the first one who give a rating and a review, I will come back after a while, i'm curious what rating this movie will get after a few weeks.
