There’s a new pack of rabid hounds ready to terrify audiences. Soon, you can sink their teeth into a fresh take on Wes Craven’s 2006 film, The Breed.
This isn’t your typical cabin-in-the-woods scenario. The Breed reimagines the terror with a strong female lead, Violet, played by Grace Caroline Currey (Fall, Shazam!). Violet, a rebellious animal advocate, embarks on a mission to rescue abandoned dogs on a remote island. However, this noble quest takes a horrifying turn when she uncovers a secret far more sinister than she could have imagined. This unconventional reimagining promises an adrenaline-pumping horror experience that will leave you questioning your relationship with mans’ best friend.
Currey isn’t the only rising star attached to the project. Brothers Sean and Bryan Furst, known for their work on Daybreakers and Renfield, will be stepping behind the camera for their directorial debut. Their production company, Curmudgeon Films, is bringing this chilling reimagining to life.
While the original film had fans, it wasn’t a critical darling. It ranks at a sad 27% on Rotten Tomatoes. But the concept of killer canines remains undeniably terrifying. This new interpretation promises to breathe fresh life into the story, offering a unique blend of social commentary and heart-stopping horror.
With a talented cast, a bold new direction, and a proven production team, The Breed remake is poised to be a must-watch for horror fans. So, keep your eyes peeled for further updates and prepare to face a whole new kind of canine terror.
If you somehow missed The Breed, don’t panic. It is streaming free on multiple services, including Tubi, Redbox, Roku, and VUDU. Here’s a look back at the original trailer.
