Animal is a 2014 American horror thriller film directed by Brett Simmons[1] and starring Elizabeth Gillies, Keke Palmer, Jeremy Sumpter, Eve, and Joey Lauren Adams.

[3] One night, Two married couples, Carl and Vicky, and Douglas and Barbara, are being chased through the woods by a mysterious beast.

Jeff gets the others to try to find a waterfall he, Alissa, and their father used to go to as kids, but they end up taking so long that it is dark by the time they start walking back to the car.

When they arrive at the cabin, the group desperately bangs on the doors and screams for whoever is inside to help them.

Mandy gets attacked as she enters the cabin, but the group manages to pull her in and board up the door.

In the cabin, they find Carl, Vicky, and Douglas, who have sealed the windows and walls with boards to protect themselves against the creature.

Matt volunteers to take a walkie-talkie and make a run for the car while Carl and Sean keep watch for the creature.

Douglas attempts to board up the entrance, leaving Sean and Carl to die outside, but the girls help them get in through the back.

Douglas proposes that the group let the animal eat Matt as a bait so they can escape.

"[8] We Got This Covered gave Animal a slightly more positive rating and commented that "Animal has enough carnage to appease more forgiving horror fans, but despite a quick pace and brutal kills, it's repetition that truly kills this beast.
