Werewolves

They did alright for a low budget movie, but it definitely could've had a better story.

As werewolf movies go; the silver bullets, the talent, the direction, and decent graphics are found nowhere. I found my will to live leaving at the sight of cheap costumes, horrible VFX, bad acting, and a female lead in heels for the entire movie. To summarise, I will only be watching this movie again in the unlikely event that I have a lobotomy. However, there was a werewolf with a leather jacket on dressed as a metal head. This saved my enjoyment of the movie dramatically. 5 stars.

The plot puts the poor actors on situations and dialogue which are so impossible to perform that the result was inevitable. A movie so cheesy and pathetic that can make you really laugh out loud instead of generating any kind of thrill, suspense or horror. The “effects” can be comparable to old japanese monster movies, with guys on masks and halloween customs. The “werewolves” look pathetically funny, and cheap. Any attempt to generate fear or any remotely strong emotion, only makes the actors look even more out of place and the whole thing gets completely fake. A total waste of time, in spite of an almost heroic effort from the actors who were absolutely unable to save this mess. I didn’t buy anything on this movie for a second.

Let’s be honest — expectations weren’t high. Director Steven C. Miller is known for B-movies, and when you see Frank Grillo in the cast, you know you’re in for a low-budget ride. But credit where it’s due: the werewolves actually look pretty good (practical suits instead of CGI, which makes them much scarier). And let’s face it, werewolf movies rarely turn out well anyway. The initial concept was solid — The Purge meets werewolves — but from the start, it doesn’t hold up. Everyone knows what’s coming, and yet they wait a whole year to board up their windows and grab some guns? Classic Trump-era America. The rest of the movie doesn’t rise above that level and quickly spirals out of control, with a rushed, underwhelming ending.

There was the kernel of a good werewolf movie here, but it was ruined by cheesy werewolves that looked like high-end Muppets. Why don't werewolf movie makers opt to use classic Universal Wolfman makeup - much visually scarier creatures -- instead of trying to recreate things that look more wolf-like than human? "Pseudo-wolves" just aren't as scary as humanoid werewolves. Also, if there was going to be a predictable wide-ranging invasion of super-powerful bloodthirsty werewolves on a certain night, most people would have the wherewithal to find a solid bunker to hide in instead of trying to barricade in a regular house. It would have been better to make this movie about the first incident when everyone was taken by surprise. Just saying...

This is one of the stupidest movies I've seen. They had like a whole year to prepare for supermoon and all they've done is put some boards on windows and electric fence? Nobody thought of building a safe room inside the house? With thick concrete walls and thick metal doors?? And the woman in the house, barging in every room and shooting blindly then she only had 4 gunshot shells left and she shot those without seeing the target too?? And those scientists at the lab?? They had 4 potential werewolves inside tiny metal cages?? They couldn't put them inside a voult room incase they break free??? Seriously...

Nothings special about this generic horror film, it's just a time passer, but none of it's special, not even the 1990 looking badly special-effected werewolves.

Watch this instead of Wolf Man, I promise you'll be more entertained

Sharknado but with oversized rubbish wolf costumes...I mean a werewolf actually washed his face.....the director got paid for doing a rubbish job.....Kinda the American way now.....

It's a cheesy werewolf purge movie I think it's a fun movie the practal effects aren't the greatest but they're not terrible either a fun watch
