yesterday i was mostly watchin dog soldiers on sky, after watchin it caused me too ponder the following questions........
will the mod be issuing silver bullets, when patrolling in areas known for higher than average werewolf activity?
will mre's contain more garlic?
did the sargeant obtain this rank by virtue of his dad being worzel gummage?
how do you fire a 'three round burst' with a shotgun?
other than that not a bad film, spoilt somewhat by my missus coming in half way through complaining that i was watchin another bloody army documentry, too which i said yes, and that wolfmen are quite common in scotland and that the rspca is now rehoming them in the south with the help of rolf harris, at this point she told me too f#*k off.
anyway if anyones got any spooky sh*t that happened on exercise etc, thought it might make a half way entertaining thread

Its a good atempt (good british atempt!) at a horror style film..although i find it more of a comedy because of its obvious £20 budget.
If you want to see a decent UK horror flick check out "28 days later" its mental.

I enjoyed the film...they had realistic weapons for a change! SA80's with the yellow stopper (nice terminonlogy there i see!) makes a change as they where on Ex and would need them in for the blanks they would be carrying!
I read it was a comedy but cant for the life of me remember any comical parts:| whoops a daisy! turnin into an old grumpy get already!
You 'older generation' must have some crazy stories from excercises:) common share and share well
cheers, davo

the highlight for me was trying too beat a 9 foot werewolf to death with a twig, throwing twig across room while shouting fetch.....who said that the 'carry on' sense of humour was dead

hey that film rocks! even if the werewolves looked a lil stoopid. more of a comedy than a horror id say.
and 28 days later is one of the best british films for ages!!

So you didn't get showings of "Dog Soldiers" in the US ?
His original question was asking if anyone has any spooky stories when out on exercises etc.

Only thing I didnt like about dog soldiers was the dodgy looking replicas the "sarge" and another guy had, and as for wing nuts on the end of BFA's
well
