This no more than a film that's about a group of teenagers who end up being killed off one by one at creepy place. Sounds like a million before it? The acting is pretty decent. There is a Mansonesque type nod to the backstory. Again, it's not groundbreaking, but it's a fun little horror film.

Shocking...
Expected something good from this film as it seemed to be a good horror. Starts off weirdly and then changes into a whole new world pretty quickly - too fast. Could've been made much, much better but unfortunately the film is a huge disappointment.
No reviews on the back of the DVD also indicates that this isn't a top quality film - however it was a good try.
However, it does include a few "jump scares" of which everyone loves, it still doesn't include that "quality" horror film feeling of eeriness and you actually being scared - people who get scared by these films easily, would easily pass through this one; no doubt!
Try it if you want, but be warned the story changes quickly and the ending is blunt; leading you into a forced opinion about the film.

Better than you might imagine ...

Sometimes when watching slasher films, it's difficult to sympathise with the teen heroes/cyphers, who are depicted as writers think teens always are - either horny, drunk or stoners. In this one, they're all three and more besides. Any attempt to make this bunch likeable has been left firmly at the door. So with that in mind, it's easier to sit back and enjoy the fun when this group stumble across an abandoned house in the middle of the desert. The house has a history; there's a very good reason it's been abandoned.
From here on in, 'Raised by Wolves' is a good, satisfying example of its type. Retired adult film star Jenna Haze is top-billed on some of the promotional material, but her appearance is little more than a cameo. The rest of the film is occasionally effectively spooky, and you do get a sense of 'something' playing with these pretty irredeemable characters. My score is 7 out of 10.
