Betsy

Betsy didn't shine for its stellar acting; in fact, it was quite dreadful. There was an absolute lack of chemistry among the actors, almost suggesting a robotic execution within the cast. Emotion and drama were conspicuously absent. The plot followed a rather standard template: the protagonist is attacked by a werewolf and survives... you know the rest. The special effects were notably deficient. While some films handle nudity sensibly, in this case, it came across as peculiar. It seemed as if the actress either hesitated to reveal nudity or it was reserved for a specific, potentially pivotal scene. If that was the intent it failed. If I hadn't been occupied with something else while this movie played in the background, I would have surely turned it off. Nevertheless, it's worth noting that there is a mid-credit scene which arguably represents the film's best moment.

I do not watch the trailers, maybe i should. I saw 6,9 rating (32 peoples, probably family,friends and actors), i saw werewolf, that's all i needed. This film is made probably by couple of friends with phone and dads camera, shaky with bad angles. Actors do not know how to act. to laugh, to make facial expressions. Plot is offensive even to a 5 yo child... Don't expect a horror. If you expect a good movie you will give up after 5 mins for sure. If you want to cry from laughter. THIS IS MOVIE FOR YOU! :D I gave 2 stars for trying and for making me a really good laugh.

While I had indeed never heard about this 2018 horror movie titled "Betsy" (aka "Animal Inside") from writer and director Shawn Burkett, then of course I opted to watch it here in 2025, as I had the opportunity to do so. After all, I am a big fan of horror.

However, I have to say that writer Shawn Burkett delivered a rather slow paced narrative in the movie, and it was somewhat uneventful. And that ultimately lead to a rather boring viewing experience. So I wasn't particularly entertained or thrilled about sitting through the movie.

I was not familiar with the actors and actresses on the cast list, and while some of the acting performances were shoddy and amateurish, there were also some performances that were actually adequate. Yeah, you're not going to find yourself in for an evening of Shakespearian theater, should you opt to watch "Betty".

The special effects in the movie were fair. Let's just leave it at that.

Ultimately, "Betsy" is not a movie that I would recommend you to sit down and watch. And it is not a movie that will ever find a second play on my screen.

My rating of writer and director Shawn Burkett's 2018 movie "Betsy" lands on a three out of ten stars.

...then this is your lucky day! For a supped werewolf movie, 99% of the time it comes a cross as a Hallmark drama with bad acting. Special effects are all but non-existent. It's like film students found an old iPhone and decided to do a homework assignment.

First, the characters are always speaking like they have no emotions. Second, the cops are constantly getting wasted and driving drunk. Third, the "villain" spends more time in group therapy than doing anything evil. Fourth, the ending is nonsensical: if you find someone you love dead, you don't use leave them there and calmly walk away.

If you enjoy suffering, then boy, is this the film for you!

Not the worst Werewolf movie ever made, was this movie good. No, it was just barely okay. The plot is what made it some what interesting and different, from other Werewolf movies. The transformation scenes was decent, but could been better. Its a low budget movie, with some beginner actors in it. So you shouldn't expect much from it in the first place. Just a Werewolf movie to watch, when you bored and need to past some time.
