Werewolves


This flick ended up on so many worst of 2024 lists i had to see for myself if it was as bad as people are saying it is. Yes its bad but the flick does provide a few good things. The supermoon is turning most of the world’s population into mutant werewolves if they look at it directly for even a second. So the movie focuses on a small band of scientists ,a family going through some trauma and a couple of neighbors. I actually thought the way the movie worked around its small budget was smart by writing in a couple of lines and people actually listening to the warnings sent out by Dr. Aranda (Lou Diamond Phillips). Always fun to watch Frank Grillo in action flicks like this,as he does his best to protect his family and make the werewolves a memory. There are some good and bloody kills.

PROBLEMS: At first the SFX were ok but got cheaper as the flick goes on.The editing and cut away scenes are terrible. The movie can't decide if the werewolves are just mindless, blood thirsty creatures, or if they can hold on to humanity for a few minutes and work out some strategies when it's convenient for them to do so. There are ultra cheesy one liners and laughable scenes in which I asked how did the Werewolf do that? So many story paths are ultra predictable especially the closing one. A few people make it far to easy for the werewolves to make a meal of them.

Scale of 1 to 10 a 3
