Synopsis/Details: 

At a secret government project (approved by Donald Trump) on a remote island, scientists are injecting dogs with a serum that makes them bigger, stronger, smarter, more aggressive and more racist in order to make them living weapons for war. When a general and a U.S. Senator who is definitely not NOT Ted Cruz visit the island, the dogs break out and get their revenge on the men who have wronged them and a wide variety of well-deserving douchebag humans.

This is a straight-up horror comedy that is a throwback to the low-budget man vs. nature/animals movies of the 1970s. Lots of action, lots of dog-on-human violence, lots of cathartic retribution. Also, there's a love story between the Chinese-American and Korean-American leads, a diverse cast of both humans and dogs and enough dark humor and political satire to satisfy an entire pack of viewers.
