The result is one of the loudest, goriest, and unexpectedly funniest werewolf movies ever made.”— Den of Geek I think there’s two kinds of films, something that has a big splash when they open, and then they fade into obscurity, or films that have a life that just keep on going and people keep on talking about them. I think maybe what makes ‘Dog Soldiers’ so appealing is not necessarily universal, but it’s kind of timeless. The very first thing that immediately stood out during my first viewing of Dog Soldiers was the uncharacteristic design of werewolves–not as bulky clumps of never-ending fur so much as thin, graceful creatures exuding an obvious air of pure dread. “A friend of mine drew a sketch in a pub one afternoon of a werewolf and that design ended up being what we followed all the way through,” Marshall said in an interview given to Through The Trees magazine. “I had given him a list of what I wanted, it was: two legs, looking as much like a wolf as possible. He combined the two in this incredibly elegant, lithe, almost feminine looking creature and it was almost beautiful, I loved it. That was passed on to the werewolf designers, Bob Keen and his team, who took that and refined it and enhanced it. It was a long process and it wasn’t cheap, and it did eat a chunk of our budget, but it was worth it to do it practically.”

So, is this version of Dog Soldiers the best it could ever be? No. Of course not. If we had the negative and a shit-load of cash we could have done a lot better. Is it the best it could be under the circumstances? Yes. Will it appeal to everybody? No. But that’s movies for you!

In his fantastic conversation with The Filmmaker’s Guide to the Galaxy, Neil Marshall talks about his major filmmaking influences, his passion about monster and action movies, love of practical effects and much more. To celebrate the upcoming theatrical release of DOG SOLDIERS – in selected cinemas from 23rd October – we’re giving away a poster. Sausages: The Making of Dog Soldiers is a gold standard in film journalism and is absolutely essential for any fan of the movie as well as being highly recommended for anyone with an interest in low-budget film-making. Buy it now.”— Horror DNA Things are getting hairy as Vertigo Releasing re-release the classic British troops-versus-werewolves horror DOG SOLDIERS, with a superb 4K restoration, and stunning, newly-commissioned promotional artwork by legendary illustrator Chris Malbon.

Another reason Dog Soldiers functions as well as it does is the fact that Marshall gathered a respectable acting crew eager to participate in shooting the film precisely because it just sounded as such damn fun. Sean Pertwee, one of the leads, liked the script so much he told Marshall to feel free to use his name anywhere he pleases in the process of closing the financial construction. “And sure enough three years later, Chris Figg and Neil rang me up and said ‘We’re on, we start in two weeks!’” Pertwee remembered. Great atmosphere behind the scenes naturally led to inspired performances in front of the camera. “There was such a camaraderie within that group of actors,” Marshall explained. “I swear to God, those guys would have fought and died for each other by the end of that film. They were so tight knit as a group of friends and a group of actors and colleagues. I think Sean helped create that. He was a big part of that.” Dog Soldiers remains his most potent distillation of taut action, unrelenting horror, and gallows humor, though. Plus, at a time when digital effects were becoming the norm rather than the exception, his insistence on using practical creatures all the way through lends them real heft and a sense of menace that’s missing from most subsequent attempts to bring werewolves to the big screen on a decent budget. The lycanthropes in Dog Soldiers aren’t out to fall in love or fight vampires or be part of a shared monster universe. They just hunt, kill, and eat—and look scary-good doing it.”— The Dissolve A 19-minute “making of” feature taken from the DVD issue. Several very cool interviews with Neil Marshall and the principal cast of Dog Soldiers. Deleted scenes and gag reel from the DVD edition. Nice to see some laughter in such dire (wolf) moments of life-ending tension.Neil Marshall discusses why he opted for practical effects and steered clear from CGI when creating the stunningly haunting antagonists of Dog Soldiers.
