Werewolf Rising

If you are a good B movie fan, I do not have any complaints on this movie. The film is done in nice fashion - good camera focus, characters etc... Do not expect many things in this movie as this not a high budgeted Hollywood movie. The director has really done a great job for this movie and no complaints. The title of the movie puts your expectation very high but remember this is a 'B' movie fashion. I am surprised to see hot the movie makers managed in little budget. Last but not least - Don't forget to miss beautiful actress Irena Murphy full frontal nude scene (she has done for the first time).. I rate '7'for Irena's scene :)

I felt compelled to write a review seeing as how no one has provided a good one for this terrible B-Movie. Yes, it's terrible! So why am I giving it a good review? Because this is one of those B movies you can actually watch, laugh at, and be entertained. I believe if you go into a movie like this with the mindset of it's going to be awful, you can actually enjoy it. I think there was something compelling about the main actress who pours her heart into this role and actually does a great job contrasting against her counterparts which were just terrible and couldn't act at all. the werewolf was as goofy looking at they come and it made for a fun watch. I will end with this, if you liked Bunnyman you will probably like this. Don't get me wrong, Bunnyman is one of my favorite terrible B movies and this movie doesn't come close to that but it's essentially the same concept. Bad movie = Entertainment.

We love werewolf movies so we do have a high standard, however going into this we knew this film wasn't going to have the best effects. It gets one star for having actual prosthetics and masks, even if the werewolf mask looks some kind of hybrid wolf/bat thing. And that's about the only good in the whole movie.

The cinematography is terrible. The dialog is terrible. The acting is terrible (though the lead actress does the best of the bunch, she needs more directing). The writing/plot is terrible. You'll find yourself saying "huh?" sooo many times. The end made little to no sense. It's full of continuity errors. The audio stinks. Maybe their goal was canon fodder for MST3K?

Save yourself some time and watch some other independent films. We just saw "Beyond the Gates" and it was Oscar worthy compared to this junk.

A young recovering alcoholic called Emma goes to her creepy uncle's lakeside cabin in the Arkansas wilderness for some solitude but the Moon is full and a silly looking werewolf lurks outside. This is an incredibly bleak and poor film, it makes the worst of the Howling movies look great by comparison! It is dull, has some bad acting (the attractive actress who plays Emma is pretty decent, and it also features cult star Bill Oberst jnr), has some incredibly annoying and amateur sounding music (a very poor attempt at imitating John Carpenter), plus a ridiculous looking werwolf that is more laughable than scary. Plenty of potholes, e.g Emma's uncle is stinking drunk one minute, the next he shows miraculous sobering up powers. There are a couple of nods to An American Werewolf and The Howling, but these are classic horror movies, this is the complete opposite. One of these sees a sexy redheaded get naked and give herself to the actor in the hairy suit and silly mask. If you do make it through the thankfully rather modest 75 minutes there is a post credits scene, but it's hardly worth bothering with. Very poor

I would really love to know why Bizarre Magazine hire a 12 years old to write film reviews. The plot is wafer thin, there is no coherence, the acting is poor, aside from the lead actress who makes a valiant effort to recover this flop, and the hillbilly maniac who was OK. It started shakily, but passable, I thought it would roll along as a half decent movie at best, and then it descended into the mire. It was boring, lazily filmed, the plot, if there was one, was formulated over a can of Stella, badly made, without being bad enough to make culy status. Useless, it will be 50 pence at the music exchanges within oooh seconds.
