Greutert's new horror film "Jackals" (written by Jared Rivet) feels disappointingly derivative of the movie he worked on a decade ago, but at least he knows how to shape this kind of material into something relatively jolting
good production values, solid acting and an intense opening can't make up for the unsympathetic drudgery and pacing issues of the rest of the film
a competent but completely forgettable cult-versus-family flick
