	* (review ~~needed~~)		* Jeffrey M. Anderson at Combustible Celluloid (3.5/4 Stars) ([http://www.combustiblecelluloid.com/archive/ravenous.shtml link]) - "''Ravenous'' is a terrifically well-made gory horror movie with splashes of humor."
			* Graeme Clark at The Spinning Image (8/10 Stars) ([http://www.thespinningimage.co.uk/cultfilms/displaycultfilm.asp?reviewid=387 link]) - "The action is set against striking landscapes, but despite its historical trappings, Ravenous is basically a slasher movie with pretentions... However it has a nasty humour and its strong central idea convinces: that if you give up your sense of decency, you can have an authority over others - but at what cost?"
			* Roger Ebert at RogerEbertdotcom (3 Stars) ([http://www.rogerebert.com/reviews/ravenous-1999 link]) - "The film's setup is more fun than its pay-off because in a story of this nature, we would rather dread what is going to happen than see it."
			* J. P. Roscoe at Basement Rejects (8/10) ([http://basementrejects.com/review/ravenous-1999/ link]) - "''Ravenous'' could be scarier and it could be gorier, but it holds back. If it had gone all out, it probably wouldn’t be as classy, but it does still feel just under done in story."

==Synopsis==

{{spoiler|
Upon receiving reports of missing persons at Fort Spencer, a remote Army outpost on the Western frontier, Capt. John Boyd investigates. After arriving at his new post, Boyd and his regiment aid a wounded frontiersman, F.W. Colghoun, who recounts a horrifying tale of a wagon train murdered by its supposed guide -- a vicious U.S. Army colonel gone rogue. Fearing the worst, the regiment heads out into the wilderness to verify Colghoun's gruesome claims.
