Charlotte (Emillie Dequenne) is a hard-nosed woman with a strong independent streak and little patience for people who rub her the wrong way. Charlotte is in the midst of a road trip when she picks up a hitch hiker named Max (Benjamin Biolay) who seems just as flinty as she is. After a while, Charlotte and Max take a break from driving and pull into a diner and gas station run by La Spack (Yolande Moreau), a gal who makes Charlotte seem like June Cleaver. After a while, Charlotte can't find Max and ends up leaving without him, but her conscience and curiosity get the better of her and she comes back that evening. Charlotte soon discovers La Spack isn't running an ordinary greasy spoon -- she abducts her customers and uses their flesh and blood to feed a private army of cannibalistic ghouls. La Meute (aka The Pack) was the first feature film from director Franck Richard. ~ Mark Deming, Rovi

Critic Reviews
-
Scott Weinberg, FEARnet
It's no Martyrs or Inside, but that's a pretty unfair standard when you think about it.
-
Simon Foster, sbs.com.au
Franck Richard spins his damsel-in-distress slasher film into a nihilistic monster movie very effectively.
-
Anton Bitel, Little White Lies
although it mines a rich seam of genre's raw materials, The Pack ends up being all tense build-up with little convincing follow-through.
