I love horror films, and grew up during the Golden Age of 80s slasher flicks. I'm not some elitist snob who only gives big-budget films a chance, I approach all horror films WANTING to like them (this movie was no different). Based solely on the online reviews, I bought the DVD without having seen the movie. Now I remember why I don't do that. The acting is abysmal. I get that the movie is meant to pay homage to 80s films, but that would be an insult to 80s movies. It's like saying that the Ford Pinto was built to pay homage to the Chevy Bel-Air. I get that the budget was in the low thousands, but, still, "Blair Witch" cost less than that and had several things this doesn't, like atmosphere, suspense, talent, etc. I just finished watching the movie and am fighting the urge to get in my car just so I can have the satisfaction of throwing the disc out the window at high speed. It has no personality, the effects are sub-par, and the monsters look like a cartoon version of better monsters from other movies. There is one upside, though: I've been craving a sequel to the timeless classic "Dog Soldiers" for years, and I now realize I can make my own. Shooting begins in my basement tomorrow, as soon as my cell phone is fully charged.

I'd never heard of this film before happening across it at my local Walmart. For $10, it looked like it was worth it to check it out based on the reviews.

Let me just say, the reviews are definitely skewed. The only redeeming factor this film has is the werewolf costumes, but we don't see them nearly enough. I will say, going into this, I knew it was gonna be a low-budget B horror movie, but the acting, writing, and directing really bring the joy factor down. It's worth a watch if you're into that sort of thing, but don't expect a lot out of this one.

Low budget with poorly written script. Many seem to really like the movie and I really tried to find some positive points. Couldn't find any. One of the main things that bothered me was her wound on her(the Mom) lip. It was on right side,then middle then left. Then movie just turned more 70's slasher. While the Werewolves didn't show themselves much.

Pretty sure everyone involved with this film got on here and gave this movie 10-8 stars? That has to be the only reason it is rated so high. The story itself is pretty predictable. That isn't even a bad thing. Most movies are. It's the acting and the fact that it seems as though this is the first movie all of these people seem to have been in, and with zero acting experience. There is no chemistry with anyone in the movie, and the execution of it was just as bad as the acting. I think the only reason I gave this 2 stars was for the use of non CGI effects. I suggest you run away and don't pay attention to the high rating. Wolf Cop is an Oscar winner compared to this atrocity.

Whoever has been giving this 9 stars could not have watched the same movie I just suffered through! Acting was awful, story was trite.

Listen, I'm all for B-movies, but this seems more like a high-school film project. Kids make better movies on YouTube. The fake ratings and reviews are pretty obvious for this one. Props to whoever made the movie poster though, because that sucked me right in. A massive waste of my time, no offense.

2/10 because of the great poster.

Bonehill Road is an interesting title. Yes, it felt as if there were two films wrapped into one, but it worked. What makes it work? The fact that it harkens back to what the film was attempting to capture. That 80's-esque vibe of the classic monster film. Especially with the use of practical make up effects.

Sure, the acting in parts can be a bit rough, but that again goes back to the roots of this film. To not have an appreciation for this type of film, and the directing that went into it leans towards someone that has not experienced films over the years.

I like horror and werewolf movies, so if I give most of them a watch.

And most of them are a waste of time, no exception here.

The story can be told in 1-2 sentences, the directing is not overwhelming - to say the least - the actors are clearly inexperienced and most should definitely stick to their day jobs.

Well, some effects were not too bad, actually.

I understand this movie had a severely low budget, but in my opinion that's not really an excuse for the so called story, acting and directing,

Might be harsh to give it a such a negative review - it's a fan project where some heart might have been involved - but the ratings are way too high, and people shouldn't be suckered into watching something they are likely to regret afterwards.

Only go for it if you're really into low budget indie horror, otherwise you're better off just watching one of the very few good werewolf movies once more.

Bonehill Road is a fun trip back to the horror films of my youth. You can tell Todd Sheets and company are horror fans as they captured both the look and feel of my favorite horror movies from my youth. This movie dances that fine line between camp and pure terror so well you will be really glad you gave it a watch.

Todd Sheets has been around; from his direct-to-video releases back in the early 90's up to the latest rejuvenated films of the last 4-5 years, Todd Sheets has been making low to micro budget horror flicks that generally satisfy the desires of his fans for gore, violence, and overall good horror story telling. His early efforts do not compare at all with his current work, although they are wacky fun in their own right. But Todd Sheets has served an apprenticeship in his craft, and we as fans and viewers have gone along for the ride for close to 40 pictures.

Bonehill Road is Todd Sheets' werewolf peon to the classic fur-and-fangs shredders of the early 80's, like The Howling and American Werewolf in London. But its also a mash-up of those traditional werewolf stories with his own traditional sadistic stalker/torture victim tales. This is both a strength and a weakness, IMO, because it opens things up story-wise that might not have been done before, especially with werewolves; however, it also feels as though the gore effects are in there mainly to cater to his longtime fans - Sheets isn't known as the King of Splatter for nothing.

But he has really grown as a director and writer: the cinematography is very good, the shot selection really stands out, the pacing is good, and all of the actors really shine, thanks to the director. In a way, my feeling is that he has grown beyond the splatter effects and should concentrate on telling a good story with good characters - he has shown with this film that he can do that, and maybe even jump to the mainstream. He's done the splatter thing and the sadistic killer thing, and now I feel that he is ready to move on - after Clownado, of course!

Shouts out to Eli Greer and Ana Rojas-Plumberg, who made for an excellent, believable, and sympathetic mother and daughter team, and really carry the movie. And as usual, the always wonderful Leanna Quigley only adds to the panache of the cast, although I personally would have liked to have seen her with a beefier role. Douglas Epps's schtick is a bit much for me, personally. The splatter effects are decent, though not always believable, and frankly not always necessary, especially in the scenes where the camera lingers on them for gross-out effects. Maybe its because I am old and ready fer the glue factory, but I cud do with a lot less than that. The practical effects are pretty darn good, cowsidering the budget, and are refreshing to see - no obvious CGI here! The transformations are a bit slow and laborious, but overall believable, and the werewolf suits and masks were very well done.

Todd, you've come a long way since Prehistoric Bimbos in Armageddon City (still my personal favorite!), keep up the good work. And for those of you who want a good werewolf movie with a couple of twists, this cud be the one for you!

Oh well...at least I had time to think about what I would watch after this

I started to watch this on Prime, based on the 6.9 IMDB score. To be clear I only watched the 1st 10 minutes, to that point it was so awful I couldn't bear to watch any more. The first few seconds already revealed terrible acting, unconvincing action, amateurish camera work and awful dialogue. At around 5 minutes in the the female lead has a wound to left of her mouth, in the previous scene it was on the right. That's what really done it for me { I went back and checked, there was no mirror shot or other explanation).. I know that there are many films that polarise an audience, these are generally made with passion and/or enthusiasm, this isn't one of them. If you value your time this is one to avoid.

I like to look for under the radar horror films and give them a shot. Given that this title got a 6 plus rating from imdb users, I thought that this had a chance of being a decent movie. Wrong! Before I get all negative, I'd like to point out the one positive that I observed. Millie Milan, who played Tina, gave the only exceptional acting performance. She was solid throughout despite the amateur acting hour around her. The plot was below average at best. The acting, for the most part, stunk. And the cinematography was one of the worst I've ever had the displeasure of viewing. Stay away, not worth the time.

Well ... It's a low budget horror so it delivers what you expect to watch.. the atmosphere is good .. the music is suitable .. acting is bad but overall it is not a complete disaster compared to other horror I've definitely seen worse

Low budget horror maestro Todd Sheets returns!

Let's get this straight, if you don't understand the appeal of low to mid budget movies without masses of CGI and star names then this movie is not for you as none of Todd's previous output will.

One gory scene leads straight into the next with superb manual effects and the fantastic cast drawing you in and providing something very few Hollywood horrors manage. A believable yet frightening experience.

Oh, and it has original scream queen Linnea Quigley in it. What more could you want?

I absolutely love horror and will watch any and every flick that comes my way. I am not sure why most low budget movies find it so difficult to write a believable script and hire talent to deliver. This movie is yet another example of this problem with low budget horror. The idea and execution were not the worst I have ever seen and some of the FX were actually good. I always enjoy a good monster movie, so the watch was certainly not a waste of time, but on grand scale of things, it lands at a 3 out of 10. The director, Sheets, seems like a very likeable guy and I hope he goes on to do bigger things in the future! I think if he had a good script supervisor, a casting director and found some competent actors (they are out there), he could go somewhere. Good luck Mr. Sheets, please keep at it, just because your budget is small, doesn't mean you can't class it up a little. You can do it!

Well, I was suckered in by the movie cover of "Bonehill Road", because it definitely seemed interesting, and I've always enjoyed werewolves in movies since being a kid. So naturally I sat down to watch this 2017 movie.

Turned out that this is a low budget horror movie, but there is nothing wrong with that in itself. But when the movie is weighed down by a lack of proper storyline and interesting characters then it becomes a problem. And that is what happened in "Bonehill Road". The storyline was so boring and mundane that I gave up halfway through the movie, I just simply couldn't endure any more of the nonsense that was passing for a storyline and script.

And it didn't help that the characters were so flaccid that I didn't even care about what they were named, much less what motivated and drove them.

I will say that for a low budget horror movie, then the werewolves in the movie were actually nicely made. The costumes looked good, detailed and interesting despite the fact that it was so clearly just masks and suits, given the immovable faces parts.

I have zero interest in returning to finish the rest of "Bonehill Road", because it just utterly failed to captivate me or entertain me.

My rating of "Bonehill Road" is a mere three out of ten stars, based on the fact that this is a werewolf movie after all and because of the werewolves themselves looked rather interesting.

If you enjoy a proper werewolf movie, then I wouldn't suggest you waste your time, money or effort on "Bonehill Road". Some of us did so you don't have to.

My god i never seen so many producers for a movie.

The movie is badly filmed looks amateur at best and the werewolf looks so fake.

Terrible movie from the first frame to the last frame avoid at all cost.

This is one of the most God awful movies I think i've seen in a long time. Every other word is profanity which in itself isn't horrible but very out of place. There is no suspension of disbelief with the language written in this movie. Parts of this movie are very disjointed and others just not good. The camera work is straight out of high school the editing maybe college level. Apparently nobody learned camera angles or effective sound or effective the sound editing. Everything is just angry acting because nobody knows how to act. Every scene is mostly just yelling at each other various profanities of course, followed by what is supposed to be shocking Gore, which is very mediocre at best. I only made it through the halfway point of this movie. And I really regret even making it that far.

First off, I love werewolves, the classic tales from An American Werewolf in London (1981) to An American Werewolf in Paris (1997) to the last decent werewolf film, Howl (2015). I am always looking and waiting for someone in Hollywood to make a solid werewolf film as there aren't many in general to date.

I stumbled across this because well, werewolf, so I check previous reviews from others to find its low rating. I watched the preview to "watch the movie" and it's all I needed to see. It's extremely low budget which past rating(s) expressed this but seeing the preview was enough for me. It feels like this was a college student's film project; it's common to come across poorly made films where the art cover is better than the actual film itself. I think this is how they catch your attention to at least LOOK at the movie knowing it's bad just by creating artistic art covers. I can't with this one.

I'll just go back to waiting for the day when a good, "OMG" werewolf film is produced.
