For this Wild Dogs Review, where the world is under a frantic alien attack. Amidst the chaos and with the army virtually subdued, the deadliest and most inconsequential pair of specialists are called upon to do what must be done. Join the war-hunting aliens around the world in every way possible. A few days before the “Biolab Wars” protocol is activated by the army, Major Frank “Pumpkinhead” Williams and his partner Teddy are summoned to the front lines. Authorized to use all necessary methods, the pair will explode, run over, crush, and smear themselves in a lot of alien goo.
