Dog Soldiers (2002): the werewolf horror that still feels dangerous 24 years on

Neil Marshall's 2002 werewolf film Dog Soldiers remains a standout horror 24 years after release, largely because it avoids over-explaining its monsters. Instead of ancient-curse exposition, the film keeps its werewolves raw and relentless — soldiers trapped in a house fighting to survive a brutal attack. Critics argue this restraint is what keeps the film feeling genuinely dangerous today.
