Culture Mix

A Breed Apart is an aggressively loathsome horror comedy about annoying people trapped on an island with killer dogs that attack. This sloppily made film, which is incompetent on every level, is a relentless attack on viewers' intelligence and time.

Crooked Marquee

The janky, suspiciously AI-looking special effects are only one problem with this mess of a film, which at times comes off like it was abandoned partly through post-production.

Rated: D-

Movie Madness Podcast

Beyond the general sloppiness in tonal shifts, effects and filmmaking, a film about the terror threat of feral dogs should produce attacks that result in more than just minor redness and irritation.

Rated: 1/4

This is an ugly-looking, repetitive, and dull dead end of whatever it is the movie is trying to be.

Rated: 1/4

Screen Rant

The Furst Brothers' A Breed Apart certainly goes for intentional comedy, but is also full of moments that are so terrible they're hysterical.

Rated: 3/10

Aisle Seat

Directors Griff and Nathan Furst are so inept they make Sharknado director Anthony C. Ferrante look like Paul Thomas Anderson in comparison.

Rated: 1.5/4

I'm not sure how many ppl knew about this they did a first film bk in 2006 called breed. Honestly it was way better than this piece of crap sequel. I grew up with the first film that movie gave me horror elements when i was kid I did get jump scares and tbh just like megamind 2 they have ruined another sequel it was barely a horror more comedy it was so stupid u want a better movie watch the first film that one for me was iconic

Haunting and thoughtful. A Breed Apart is not just a movie—it’s an experience. The direction is subtle but powerful, and the ending leaves a lasting impression. Excellent work from the entire cast and crew.

Loved every moment. A Breed Apart is a slow-burn thriller that rewards your attention. It’s intense, emotional, and visually breathtaking. Highly recommend it to anyone tired of formulaic horror.

This movie knows how to create dread. A Breed Apart creeps up on you slowly and then hits hard. It’s smart, unsettling, and incredibly well-made. Easily one of the best horror films in years.
