Sarah (Isabella Calthorpe), who has been away from home for a long time, returns to England from LA. The house is being remodeled. We are introduced to Duncan (Simon MacCorkindale), Sarah's stepfather. There are some bill issues and mom is away for...? but will return in a couple of days. She is accused of keeping a boyfriend and draining the family of money. Sarah joins her brother out in the garage/barn where we are introduced to the rest of the gang. She has 3 brothers: Steven (Peter Gadiot),Charlie (Gabriel Thomson), and Luke (Antony De Liseo). Doug (Joshua Bowman) is a playboy and a friend of the guys. Emily (Gemma Atkinson) is Steven's girlfriend, formerly Doug's girlfriend as so crudely pointed out by Gary (Tom Felton)another party animal.After we get the basic idea of who all these people are, under a full moon and a power outage, the drunk stoned party moves to the big house with flashlights and candles....only to discover the terror that occupies the house. (If you have read the title or looked at the cover, you got a good idea what is there.)The creature makes noises that sound like "Predator" apparently an easy noise to duplicate as all the horror films have gone to it. The "night wolf" moves through the house by jerking around an infra-red camera. The movie was a fairly good idea that was poorly executed and suffered from the lack of decent special effects. I thought the support cast of Tom Felton and Gemma Atkinson were great. Isabella Calthorpe left much to be desired.F-bombs, sex talk, no real nudity. Pot smoking, drinking.

I think the integrity of IMDb has gone to sh_t because of fake posts, fake ratings by those involved in the film.I rented this one, seeing a >8/10 review from some 25 people. I can't say it was anything but a waste of money. I'm a huge horror film fan, and watch anything that comes out and doesn't get abysmal ratings on here. I had to watch this one in fast forward. The initial dialog, and characters were interesting. Acting seemed fine. Once the creature and killings enter in, we are left with incoherent camera flashes, and a claustrophobic mess. When we finally see the creature, we understand why they decided to hide it till the end. The quality of the creature effects definitely are the bad. The story the ugly.. and the acting, and characters... the good.The film had a lot of things done very well. Others very badly.

This movie is not the greatest as you would guess with not a very good cast nor an original story line. To start with the acting. The actors performances were all average apart from Isabella Calthorpe's, her acting was awful. Directing was average, nothing special. The film starts of with Sarah Tyler coming back to England from the United States after a long time. We find out about each of the characters personalities and their previous relationships before Sarah left for USA.Then the action starts with the creature appearing and the family trying to survive. Trying alternate solutions to find an escape or protect themselves from the creature. The ending was surprising. It could have been better. No explanation was given on why such events happened which was frustrating and made things seem pointless and too simple. Pretty gross scenes with gore. Stupid decisions and bad storyline. Maybe you can have a laugh with friends while watching this but I don't think it's much more than that.

I have to say I rather enjoyed this movie. Everyone else who has reviewed this movie seems to have a downer on it or thinks that it is a noble failure but perhaps they have not sat through the beast must die. Which is another great movie about something evil in the night. I like horror movies a lot and have watched many over my life. Plot A débutante (played by an actress who was or is a débutante) comes home. She has been away and when she gets back she finds that not all is well in the family home. Daddy has been foolish with money and mummy seems to be having an affair. There is some banter where all the characters are introduced. They are all hackneyed characters but come one this is a horror movie. They are fodder to be sacrificed to the monster from hell. Then something comes into the grandiose house and starts killing them one by one. I thought that this was a great take on the genre. It tries to have a twist in the tale but for any serious aficionado you will have guessed it by about half way through. Its well made and the actors can act. The evil is correctly personified but is slightly underwhelming when you actually see it. What I thought was so original or in keeping with the most original movies dealing with the sense of pervading evil is that once you are in its grasp you lose all control of yourself.
