Featured reviews
The film is a low budget campy completely non serious Canadian movie about a cop turned into a werewolf so that his blood can be harvested by shape shifters. It reminded me of Trolls 2, with the same kind of non existent acting, yet strong impact. Nilbog sounds worse than Flowerew, anyway, doesn't it?
There is little point in talking about the plot, as there is none. The script itself leaves much to be desired. So why did I feel like I had fun watching it, despite its many flaws? Probably because it was clear that the film did not take itself seriously. There are many ways one can try to sell the idea of a werewolf cop other than a hairy beast dressed in police uniform and driving a pimped police cruiser with a big W on it. The gore itself, even if a lot, looks more like "Woo hoo, we did gore in our film and it looks kind of real!". Instead of scary, it makes you root for the success of the movie.
Bottom line: really B, in all respects, and probably enjoyable to a select few. However, I am among this shape shifting elite, running the world from the shadows and liking stuff like this :)

WOLFCOP is a straightforward B-flick about a cop who turns into a werewolf. There's no more to it or less to it than that. It's very much in the spirit of the MACHETE films, albeit with a lower budget, in that it goes for a whole retro/non-serious vibe and just about gets by on goodwill alone.
The low budget is often apparent during this production, so the scriptwriter goes for a jokey tone throughout to make things easier to watch. The acting isn't very good, but the quality of the special effects is a real surprise; they actually turn out to be very good indeed, with some excruciating werewolf transformations that work well. The titular fiend looks rather cheesy but then that's the point.
Otherwise, the film is chock-full of grindhouse-style violence and some jumbled plotting. It's an amiable time-waster although those looking for genuine originality or insight will be disappointed; WOLFCOP is a film that offers nothing new for fans and instead is happy to go through the usual and expected motions.

Low-budget Canadian horror comedy about a drunken loser deputy turned into a werewolf. He uses this to his advantage Teen Wolf-style and becomes a better cop. Man, I really wanted to love this one. I saw the trailer and thought it looked like the most amazing movie ever. Unfortunately, while there are things to like about the movie, it just never reaches the potential of its concept. It's not funny at all. That isn't to say it's not worth watching. It kept my interest even if it didn't make me laugh. The retro look was nice. I appreciate the old school makeup effects rather than the shoddy CGI we see in most low-budget genre movies today. I could do without seeing werewolf dick, though. The sex scene was bizarre but probably the closest thing to a successful gag in the movie. The premise of this movie was great but the execution was a fail.
Exactly what it says on the tin. I knew what I was buying, you can guess what its about from the cover. And it delivers. I thoroughly enjoyed it.
A whole lot of fun, and more. Watch it whilst drinking bourbon. I thought the gags were great, the setting was lovely.
Mad as a box of frogs, just what I needed.
I love ' B ' horror films, they are a wicked crack. As this tops my list ! HAAAROOOOOOOOO ! ! ! ! !
I love films like this they are great fun, you don't need to take them seriously whatsoever, just sit back and enjoy, and have a good old giggle.

As a series of strange and violent events start happening, an alcoholic policeman (Leo Fafard) realizes that he has been turned into a werewolf as part of a larger plan, so he investigates with the help of his partner and his friend.
Bloody Disgusting gave WolfCop a positive review and stated, "A perfect storm of creature action, the occult, gore, intrigue, humor, and lycanthropic puns, WolfCop is destined for cult glory." Darn right, Bloody Disgusting. This film is hilarious, gory, and downright clever. This is the sort of thing that deserves a sequel and then another. Heck, it already ranks better than "Maniac Cop".
The film is great just for the puns alone: "the fuzz", "Dirty Hairier" and many others. The folks behind this are geniuses.
