The plot line, what little there is, could be a amalgamation of Cujo and any virus infected meteor flick you've seen.
The characters are flat and without personality, so much so that you really don't care who lives or dies and are hoping and praying that some of the more annoying ones die immediately after they are introduced. The introduction of many of them appears to be just so they aren't nameless individuals being attacked and killed.
Script dialogue is minimal, and appears only to be there so that there as a punctuation between the dog/wolf attack scenes. I wouldn't be surprised if the whole thing was written in a single lunch break.
I was actually going to stop watching until I noticed the incredibly large number of continuity errors and goofs, after which it then became a fun game of spot the mistake, in nearly every scene. If there was an award for continuity errors then this movie would be at the top and winning an Oscar.
This was less of a Movie and more a game of spot the error and goof.

Night of the Wild is a very bad movie. No actual plot, just a chance to have dogs attack & eat humans in a massive mess of craptastic gore & blood. This would be a bad movie if SyFy made it; that it was not makes this one truly unwatchable
After the seeing eye dog goes nuts he is in almost every attack scene. He is seen attacking people in the town, in the apple orchard, at the mom's house and back in the town. Look for the yellow lab with the harness. How that dog covered so much territory in one evening is amazing. And then, at 1:14 the mom and little girl take the neighbor's extended cab Ford Ranger and when they find dad and Roz they pull up in a single cab Chevrolet Silverado. Then as they all leave and are shown riding in the truck it is a single cab Ford F-150. As they pull into the airstrip and he "guns it" they are back in the extended cab Ford Ranger - then when they immediately stop they are back in the Chevy Silverado!
There are simply too many continuity errors to list here - those were the funniest ones to me.

This is one of the worst movies I have ever wasted 2 hours on. It has little to no plot and none of it is original. Something happens and dogs begin attacking and eating people. Bleh! The characters in addition to being 2 dimensional make every wrong choice they could possibly make.
Usually the point in disaster movies is to survive whatever has happened. Not this one. The characters do everything possible to get attacked by the dogs except perhaps hanging raw steaks around their necks.
I've seen some bad movies in my time; Mysterious Planet were you can actually hear the guy in charge (I will not use the term Director) yelling directions to the cast and Plan 9 From Outer Space which I still don't understand and this one ranks right up (or down) with them.

I am a twisted individual that watches all Asylum Movies, more times than not they are so bad that I enjoy them... THIS is NOT one of them.
there is NO plot and NO story line, A meteor lands and turn all the dogs into man eating (I'd say monsters, but they are still just) dogs...
then it's just 90 minutes of dogs trying to eat/kill people.
there is no explanation, no reason, no conclusion, it's just a really bad movie.
again, I am a FAN of Asylum movies, but THIS is just complete garbage, do not waste your time, there is NOTHING see hear unless you like to see dogs attack humans for 90 minutes...
That is literally all this movie is... LITERALLY!!
