The film never slows down or bores, plunging from one harrowing sequence to the next.

Hoping to use a spur-of-the-moment camping trip to win his dream-girl, a couple of friends tag along and stumble upon an abandoned mining town that serves as the home to a pack of vicious, killer wolves, forcing them to fight off the creatures to get away alive.This was a somewhat decent effort here that does have some rather enjoyable aspects. One of the few good parts to this one is the creepy ghost-town setting in here that gives this one some great elements due to that as the film gets quite a lot of work with the setting of the film. There's some good use of the familiar image here with the long dirt roads, dusty trails and wooden storefronts that evokes so many classic westerns which makes for the great reversal being in such territory while giving this one some rather nicely-designed setting here. There's a lot of time on the action here, especially in the second half where the group is trapped in the saloon and really feeling as though there's little hope of getting out as the relentless attacks to get past their lines make for quite a fun time with all these exciting scenes all packed together into an incredibly frantic pace. The other impressive part here is the rather clever twist to make the creatures plain old wolves, which was pretty unique as the early set-ups here pointed directly at werewolves being involved so that change-up comes off rather nicely. While it's not a terrible film, there's some problems with this one. One of the biggest problems here is the fact that the film really can't do anything with the wolves to showcase their killing skills, relying on the concept of the numerous numbers within the pack constantly around them instead to generate the fear, which drastically reduces their fearfulness. There's so few attacks here as the vast majority of its running time is spent on their relationship troubles and exploration of the town that it feels pretty dragged out in spaces and moves along at such lame paces and because there's not a lot that can be done here that this leaves so much of the film devoid of wolf attacks. Also problematic for this section is that there's such a small body count of potential victims there's hardly a chance for this to succeed because of the lowered chance of getting anything to happen to this small group. The other real flaw to this one is in fact the change-over of the creatures from werewolves to plain wolves that really comes off as quite a shock with the new creatures here being quite a cheat from what's to be expected that it becomes a rather irritating point. This is what's really holding this one down though the other problems are just as big.Rated R: Graphic Language, Violence and violence-against-animals.

I Loved this movie great storyline. I recommend everyone see it. I like horror and thrillers. Josh Kelly did an amazing job in this movie. I also like that it was not filled with blood and guts.It was well worth the 2.99 that i paid to rent this movie. I will be buying this movie in the next week or so. I disagree with all the negative comments. Just because its 2012 don't mean every movie has to have graphics like it is. If you think about it the town they where in was more then a hundred years old. They could not possibly make it look like towns do now. I like it when a movie looks older. I hope to see much more from Josh Kelly and all the other actors in this film great job to all of you.

A stoner guy invites the girl of his dreams to a trip in a ghost town called Paradise. He takes his best friend along and the girl of his dreams takes her boyfriend with her. Which leads to all the emotional drama you're going to get in between the wolf attacks.Like a lot of modern survivals, the writer pads the running time with a lot of bickering and interpersonal drama. Although the production crew had the decency to hire real wolves instead of CGI, a lack of tension permeates these boresome 90 minutes, partly due to the leads' shocking lack of charisma. In between a spiteful, wimpy lead, a grumpy best friend and a bland, blonde love interest, the most involving character is actually the football player jock, who demonstrates more sensitivity and balls than the whole rest of the cast. When he dies, the movie dies too.

Well as we get more advanced in CGI and other effects one would think that films would get better and more so typical predictable American films, Here we have Yet again a group of young adults find themselves looking for gold in an old American town they are all more or less models again as is the norm in American films?? no one seems to be ugly these days?, there is a mine there and they discover an old book from the residents that lived there many years ago, The town is deserted and this book explains why, i wont spoil the plot but its weak and as normal the people in the movie (x3 men x1 woman) all have to fight for their lives, there is NO special affects hardly any gore the plot is weak and its the kinda films where the girl is the spice of the film the men all want her and are been flirtatious with her, i reckon if you watched the first 5 minutes then skipped to the last 5 of the film you would be able to put together the complete story! if i was too of bought this on DVD or gone to the Cinema i would ask for my money back! I would like to of seen some even a sniff of originality on the film it did have potential to be a better film but lets be honest a film about wolfs is hardly head behind pillow is it, the camera work was pretty good and the sound was good too, i just wasn't convinced by the actors and the acting, there is a scene where one of the wolfs gets a licking off a chair leg by one of the guys AWEFULL realism! anyway i skipped more a less all over the film it was just so bland i reminded myself i need to decorate my house cause i spent more time looking around my room due to been so bored!
