WolfCop

...from writer-director Lowell Dean. Small-town sheriff's deputy Lou Garou (Leo Fafard) is a drunk and a loser, but after he gets kidnapped and subjected to an occult ritual by a band of masked cultists, he finds himself transforming into a super-strong werewolf. He uses his new-found beast power to fight crime, but the cultists aren't done with him yet.

A sort-of parody of high-concept 80's cop movies, this doesn't quite have the resources or the script to go as far as it needed to work. Not enough time is spent with the uniformed werewolf on patrol, instead devoting too much time to secondary characters and the cult's ulterior motives. At times it seems the movie starts to take itself too seriously, but then they devote a lengthy scene to the werewolf using an auto body shop to customize his police car with big metal "W" emblems and other such silliness. The cast of mostly unknowns is good, and despite its deficiencies this is better than most of the movies of similar budget level.

This film is much better than it has any right to be. Made with a modest budget but a loving touch, WolfCop knows to embrace its cheesiness and that of its drive-in schlock predecessors and play to its strengths without taking itself too seriously. Whenever it falls flat, it feels more endearing than broken, which I suppose is due to the makers actually caring about what they were filming, and I'll take a lovingly crafted low-budget slopfest over an a-list blockbuster that wasn't given a single rat's behind by it's authors.

With that being said, there isn't really anything that stands out as exceptionally good. Although the fun had while filming is apparent and the enthusiasm of the effects department (if such can be said to have existed here) shines through, nothing can be graded more than "pretty good, considering". On the flip side of things, I couldn't find anything really horrible here either, as WolfCop is adept at covering its tracks (pun intended).

Booming with b-movie grit and outrageously strange choices of plot elements, WolfCop is a must watch for fans of "so bad it's good" – films and those interested in amateur films. Other viewers might need to take this movie with a grain of salt. And quite some alcohol.

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.

This isn't necessarily a "good" movie but it's fun and gory and sometimes that's a good thing. In my opinion it's better than the score on IMDB would have you believe but again it depends on your taste, but that's true with all movies really.

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.
