Eight for Silver

Solid horror movie. The story is interesting, the beginning was a bit too much for me to watch, but it laid the foundation for the rest of the movie. There's a few little jumpscares in the beginning but other than that it just builds the scaryness off of the storyline. Overall a good movie, would recommend to watch, but for me the possibility of a rewatch is low.

A fine production, the dark visual quality and a well working cast make The Cursed aka Eight for Silver worth your time. The only thing I gotta complain is the running time - 155 minutes, which almost inevitably leads to some lengthy or redundant parts and rather weakens the experience than improving. Why so many directors these days think that they have to make such long running movies (Apocalypse Now directors cut just runs half an hour longer but got massively more story to tell), I don't know, but too many times it is really an unwise choice to do so. Anyway, if you like such different horror pleasures like Sleepy Hollow, The Village, The Thing, The Cursed will give you some entertaining time.

It's been quite some time since there has been some legitimate horror in this genre. This movie delivers on all the right aspects from the cinematography to the creature effects. I thoroughly enjoyed it.

The cursed revolves around a werewolf and a set of silver teeth buried in a field. Might sound lame, but it actually works. The root of the killings is deeper than just werewolf violence - and the plot keeps interest where run of the mill werewolves fall short.

I wished they never changed the original title, Eight for Silver. That name had a unique identity of its own.

An aesthetically pleasing horror drama, beautiful locations, peak cinematography, talented actors, a proper budget, brilliantly written and directed, realistic brutal scenes with outstanding performances.

A unique take on lycanthropy that never ever seen before. I would've rated more if Sean Ellis carried the same momentum he had until the final act.
