Although Neil Marshall, writer/director of the original "Dog Soldiers" (and next month’s "The Descent"), won’t be working on any sequels, horror fans should be pleased to know that there is at least one follow-up on the horizon. It’ll be called "Dog Soldiers: Fresh Meat," and the director will be Rob Green, whom you might remember from the WWII horror flick "The Bunker."
According to an interview with Green at Horror-Movies.ca, "Some of the characters actually love being a werewolf because they are so powerful – the ultimate killing machine…it’s a fun spin on the traditional angle that being a werewolf is a curse which damns the person the person no matter what. We also have a very savage she-wolf in the climax who faces against the leader of the pack of Dog Soldiers."
"We need longer nights for shooting because about 70 percent of the film is set at night. We want to shoot during a Hunter’s Moon when the moon appears three times its normal size."
No word on casting just yet. "Fresh Meat" is scheduled to begin production this fall.
