A Breed Apart

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.

It's obviously down to the individual but this _could_ fall into that camp for you. The part on the cell tower made me laugh for instance, it's _so_ terrible in both conception and implementation that I just can't believe the film makers didn't know what they were making. It _must_ be deliberate, surely ? Maybe even a satire on AI slop ?

Don't get me wrong, no one should waste their time watching this in my view but _in case_ there's more intent behind its across the board stupidity and terrible craftsmanship than may appear and because IF you watch it with friends in the altered mental state of your choice it almost certainly _will_ provide some amusement, albeit entirely _at_ rather than _with_ the movie, I give it 3 stars.

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.

First couple minutes, when they were just introducing the influencers, actually felt like this could be something fun. But after that... boy oh boy.

The dialogues are straight-up stupid. Most of the time I couldn't even tell if there was a joke, like was I supposed to laugh? Is this supposed to be a parody?

The CGI... I swear they used some random Chinese AI to generate it and they've got the absolute awful eye hurting result and were like "Yep, perfect. Ship it!" No second tries, no shame. Just pure visual pain.

I've seen a lotta low budget action flicks, but this one takes the crown for absolute laziness.

The biggest mystery? How the hell they got Hayden, Ginny, or Grace to be part of this? All three of them are thousands of miles above this dumpster fire.

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.
