I love a good werewolf movie. Sadly, there just aren't that many made anymore. When I came across this and saw the 6.4 rating I was encouraged, especially since the plot sounded like a cool take on the legend. I watched the trailer and saw that it wasn't just some random student film but an honest to goodness movie. Then I watched it.

No werewolves. None. Zero. Zilch. No action of any kind for more than 1/2 the movie. No gore to speak of.

The movie is not completely devoid of worth, so anyone who says it's the worst thing they've ever seen is disingenuous or lying. That said, it was rather boring, confusing at times, and just all around blah. I mean, no werewolves? In a werewolf movie?

I would not recommend this film, even to the most diehard of lycanthropy fans.

Annoying characters. The hint of a plot and underlying forces at play. And this all adds up to...nothing. College kids go into the woods to uncover the mystery around a reported werewolf attack years ago. And then the forces at play do something. I think. And it ends. I believe. But the wolves are still there. I'm guessing. If this makes sense to you, you may like this film.

I'm not really sure where to start with this one. I'm not even sure if the filmmakers even knew what they were making as it comes out as a werewolf movie that follows traditional slasher formula, which doesn't work.

Some teens go into a forest, one of them (and it's real obvious who) has a claw thing, then at some point some of them die in confusing fashion. In between everything is bad: acting, effects, dialogue, editing, directing, even the music choices seem off.

Overall this movie is nearly unwatchable, there are constraints that come with a low budget but you can still write good lines and have them delivered well and produce some type of movie. Here there is no attempt to do any of that and it just seems like a one-take affair where everything was cobbled together and thrown out there despite the apparent bad quality. It's just not worth the time.

NOT a Werewolf Movie. That's the important thing for me here. I was expecting and trying to watch a werewolf movie. Other than that, it wasn't terrible.

The lead actress in this film gives what is perhaps the most brilliant drunken performance since W.C. Fields. Her dedication to her craft is evident all throughout, as she uses gin-infused slurring to transition seamlessly from one made up accent to the next. Unless you count slurring as a seam, I guess. And while this intoxicated performance was at the top of its game, it could not come close to matching the dedicated inebriation of the sound design team, whose ability to make the film sonic-ally assault you like a Mel Gibson antisemitism rant. I give this film eight Jagermeister shots. "COME AND GET US YOU BASTARD! I gotta pee."
