πŸ• Plot Summary

When a small, remote town in Oregon is struck by a series of brutal and unexplained deaths, all clues point toward a horrifying and unnatural force: dogs. Not just any dogs β€” these canines are organized, intelligent, and violently vengeful.

Veterinarian Dr. Lila Hartley (Anya Taylor-Joy) begins to notice strange behavioral changes in the animals she treats. As she digs deeper, she uncovers a terrifying secret tied to a government experiment gone wrong β€” one that awakened an ancient instinct buried deep within the species.

Now, with the town under siege and no help from the outside world, Lila teams up with a reclusive survivalist (Cillian Murphy) and a traumatized teen (Stanfield) to uncover the truth β€” and survive the night.
