Simon Burns’ life changes dramatically when he unexpectedly
loses his job. Gone are the office politics and deal making meetings. These are
replaced with the responsibility of caring for his 3 year old son. With a
marriage already on the rocks how will Burns adapt to his new role?
Relief from the stress comes when Simon meets a trio of
full-time Dads at a local playground and the guys immediately welcome him into
their company. Following a night out with the guys Simon wakes up in a very
strange place and that’s just the beginning of his new experiences….
Ok, the guys are Werewolves, headed by the mysterious
Michael but this isn't a typical stalk, slash and devour horror story. The guys
all have their own problems to deal with, especially Michael, making this much
more a human drama than a cheap gore-fest. There are also wonderful moments of
toddler – related humour that any parent can relate to.
The Pack is an excellent horror / thriller / comedy and with
a sequel already available I can’t wait to take another bite! Hoowwwlll !!
Ric’s Rating: Highly Recommended
With a comedy element? I'll have to check it out.
