Werewolf Rising

• awful audio thats was sudden on or off no fade whatsoever - no plot/all over the place - very confusing - first scene actress nothing to do with the rest of the film - ending poorly explained - no build up or even time to relate to characters - why did everyone had to kneel all the time - theme was a poor attempt at a copy of Friday the 13th

Overall: a slap dash attempt of a horror film and i feel sorry for the actors and actresses who actually starred in this film apart from the lead actress who was about as convincing as a bag of salmon.

and if they are going to make a werewolf film make sure it looks like one and not like a bat costume. it makes me feel like they couldn't afford a wolf costume because they blew the budget on the renting the location.

anyway don't watch it get something better like Friday the 13th and let this monstrosity of a film collect dust in a bargin bin for all time.

The ending plot twist is the only reason I'd give it 3 stars. Over all just no.

We love werewolf movies so we do have a high standard, however going into this we knew this film wasn't going to have the best effects. It gets one star for having actual prosthetics and masks, even if the werewolf mask looks some kind of hybrid wolf/bat thing. And that's about the only good in the whole movie.

The cinematography is terrible. The dialog is terrible. The acting is terrible (though the lead actress does the best of the bunch, she needs more directing). The writing/plot is terrible. You'll find yourself saying "huh?" sooo many times. The end made little to no sense. It's full of continuity errors. The audio stinks. Maybe their goal was canon fodder for MST3K?

Save yourself some time and watch some other independent films. We just saw "Beyond the Gates" and it was Oscar worthy compared to this junk.

Another movie that is strictly made to maximize profit. The actors are awful and obvious addicts. There is no scenery expenses, no actor expenses, just 3 basic people in the whole movie and not all at once.

A young recovering alcoholic called Emma goes to her creepy uncle's lakeside cabin in the Arkansas wilderness for some solitude but the Moon is full and a silly looking werewolf lurks outside. This is an incredibly bleak and poor film, it makes the worst of the Howling movies look great by comparison! It is dull, has some bad acting (the attractive actress who plays Emma is pretty decent, and it also features cult star Bill Oberst jnr), has some incredibly annoying and amateur sounding music (a very poor attempt at imitating John Carpenter), plus a ridiculous looking werwolf that is more laughable than scary. Plenty of potholes, e.g Emma's uncle is stinking drunk one minute, the next he shows miraculous sobering up powers. There are a couple of nods to An American Werewolf and The Howling, but these are classic horror movies, this is the complete opposite. One of these sees a sexy redheaded get naked and give herself to the actor in the hairy suit and silly mask. If you do make it through the thankfully rather modest 75 minutes there is a post credits scene, but it's hardly worth bothering with. Very poor
