The Pack (2015)
Australian nature horror as a family living in a remote farm house come under attack from a marauding pack of wild dogs.
One of those films that's good and very watchable without being outstanding. It's beautifully photographed (Outback lovers will enjoy some of the scenery) and nicely acted with the dog attacks well choreographed as to show gore without the animals looking fake or CGI during the attacks.
It's a film that does it's job well without any serious flaws and the reason for the savage dogs is simple enough - they just are, and yet it's not quite thrilling enough to be top tier in the horror genre.
Far superior to the Liam Neeson vehicle The Grey, from a few years ago.
