Bond of Blood

“The Pack - Some Traditions are worth Dying for; others are worth Killing for!!”
The Pack - Peter Duran, marginalized college freshman in search of his place in the world, discovers his hidden legacy when he unknowingly pledges a fraternity of vicious Lycans. When he rejects both legacy and bond he is relegated from Prospect to Prey.

High School track star Peter Duran is hungry like a wolf to graduate from his poverty-stricken life and create a decent future for himself. And just like a wolf, he’s smart, cunning and ambitious, but these qualities are tempered by his loyalty, courage and concern for others. Although Peter is highly touted by D1 track programs, he opts for the academic scholarship being offered by local HBCU Norfolk State University. Yet all too soon, he is challenged in ways he never expected – and shaken to his very core – when he butts heads with the brothers of a mysterious fraternity, nicknamed The Pack.
This Sigma Omicron Lambda organization consists of the richest, most magnetic, attractive and popular young men on campus. In reality, The Pack is an ancient Skull and Bones-type society of werewolves that have co-existed among humans for thousands of years. Naturally, they feel the rules of mankind’s society don’t apply to them – even the rule against eating people.
Peter turns out to be a pure-bred werewolf who inherited his condition from his long lost father. He is unaware of his powerful lycanthropic tendencies, so when a killer werewolf seems to be loose in the forest near his college, Peter, along with everyone else, has no idea who is committing these murders. What Peter does have are vivid nightmares about transforming hunting and feeding, that torment his nights.
Ramping up the jeopardy are The Pack brothers, who first seek to recruit Peter and when he refuses to bow to their will, become his mortal enemies. Frat president Kasius Khan, his violent VP Bishop, arrogant, and jealous track rival Price, seductive Korin and the likeable pledge Dylan cast a spellbinding net around Peter, making it impossible for him to escape. Love interest DeShawn – a normal human woman -- appears to be his only light within this long, dark tunnel. When she is abducted by The Pack who intends to sacrifice her in a horrific Blood Moon Ritual to the werewolves’ ancient gods, Peter must, find a way to stop the ravenous beasts, save his girl, and come to grips with the monster inside him.
The Pack also introduces several intriguing secondary comic relief characters that lighten the moments between vicious decapitations. It doesn’t rely on the full moon to trigger cinematic tension – this film bites you in the ass at every twist and bloody turn. Bring plenty of Silver bullets and bones because these Puppies aren’t your best friend!
If you need a message with your gore - The Pack tackles the ultimate teen question: Whether to be joiner or a lone wolf, in a very clever and metaphorical way. For those seeking a departure from the boring horror film trend of mowing down five or six teen characters nobody cares about, one by one, The Pack provides a solid investment. We invite you to take a read and see for yourself.
