Dog Soldiers: spoilers ahead!!
May. 12th, 2002 02:06 pmDid I enjoy it? You bet I did. There was so much in it, I can't begin to describe it all. There are some truly wonderful scenes in this film. The fight in the kitchen beween Spoon and the werewolf. He's got nothing left to fight with, but he won't give up, and starts punching it in the face. Not in a Hollywood macho man kind of way, but in a 'fuck this, I'm really going to die so why not' kind of way. Then he starts thowing plates at it, hitting it with frying pans, anything.
The last chase scene though the house was fucking amazing. They use everything they can think of to run away: bashing thoough walls with bits of sink they've kicked off the walls, flamethrowers made of hairspray cans and lighters, hats, footballs, clothes. Just anything, it didn't matter what as long as it got in the way of the werewolves, even for a secnd. Finally they are in the last room in the house. There's nowhere else to hide, so they get in the wardrobe.
It doesn't end there of course. The Werewolves finally meet their end though a severed gas pipe and the little piezo-electric clicky thing you get on gas ovens, that lights the hob. It's beautifully done, far better that I can describe.
The film has lovely Sean Pertwee in it - his dad would be proud.
