The Breed
Twenty-nine dogs and ten trainers were used for this film. The trainers spent eight weeks prepping the dogs for the movie.,When the people see the dogs on the dock by the plane, the plane is safely tied up. About ten seconds later, when they look at the plane again, it is untied and way out in the river. There is no way the dogs could've chewed through the rope and let the plane drift that far out that quickly.,Nicki: [in the lab, before blowing up several dogs] Give Cujo my best.,References The Adventures of Robin Hood (1938),Cool as Kim Deal

Under license from EMI Film & Television Music,I'm almost ashamed to admit that I actually quite enjoyed "The Breed" and I'm sure there's more people out there who won't admit it. It was fun right from the opening with the horrendously bad actors, "wood" and the awful direction. However, then five new kids come on the island and they're more competent actors and strangely likable as the film went on. I did actually feel sorry to see some of them die which is unusual in a film like this. The characters weren't flat, which was a lovely surprise. Of course it is extremely clichéd with the group going into a cabin with a creepy basement and so forth. This is the type of horror film "The Cabin in the Woods" was warning us of! The dogs are also quite funny as I do not find dogs scary in the slightest, especially when they're as cute as these ones! To see a bunch of cute panting dogs slowly gather and surround the young adults like "The Birds" was quite an unintentional hilarious sight. There was also a surprisingly good pace with the group always trying to make some innovative decisions. All in all I found it to be an entertaining and fun film. You shouldn't take it seriously and if you don't then you might actually find yourself enjoying it!,
