Review

it really depends how you watch this film. if you expect a serious thriller/horror flick then you’ll no doubt be disappointed by some of the seemingly cheesy moments in this film. if, however, you are willing to be scared at times and laugh at the camp portions, then you might find yourself enjoying the film a bit. it’s no evil dead or re-animator – films which i think define this genre – but it does have successful moments. it’s a werewolf story without much fanfare – the effects aren’t great and it doesn’t really add to the mythology of werewolves, but the film isn’t about forging new ground. it clearly is more about homage and fun than anything else. the cast does a generally good job with the exception of joshua jackson from dawson’s creek. michael rosenbaum (roger dodger) is a pretty good young actor, look for him in the future. kristina anapau is amazingly hot.
