Werewolf Castle

Werewolf Castle (2021) is a United Kingdom 🇬🇧 picture that I watched on Amazon Prime last month. The storyline follows a young man whose entire village is killed by werewolves. He joins a group of mercenaries out to kill the menace plaguing the countryside.

This movie is written and directed by Charlie Steeds (A Werewolf in England) and stars Peter Lofsgard (Vampire Virus), Tim Cartwright (A Werewolf in England), Jake Watkins (Freeze), Derek Nelson (Midnight Peepshow) and Megan Tremethick (Dragon Knight).

If they did a better job with the werewolf costumes and depiction this would be an underrated gem. The settings, attire, circumstances and cinematography are excellent. It reminded me of 13th Warrior in some ways. The kill scenes are very good and contain solid gore. Some sequences are shot a bit too dark, but the overall premise and execution is very good and any flesh consumption scenes are entertaining. The entire cabin scene that sets up the ending was entertaining and a lot of fun. There's a final fight that could have been better but what happens to the main character at the end made me smile.

Overall, this ends up being a very average movie because of the werewolf special effects but there are elements worth your time. I would score this a 5/10 and recommend seeing it once.

I just don't get it, some moments of half decent production without the storyline...

I'm a Werewolf movie fan, i've watched that many B werewolf movies i've lost count, hoping to find that hidden Gem. I went into this with an open mind, not checking the imdb score as I usually do beforehand. It started off not bad, I was thinking there's some effort been put into the production here at least, but literally after 10mins that hope was quashed with the usual overacting with novice actors and the illogical storyline.

4 stars, simply for the effort put into production and there was moments that were half decent, at least I made it to the end...

This has one of the worst werewolf movies ever. It's just people dressed up in a cheap Halloween costume with no special effects whatsoever and when they attack each other then not even touching each other. It's a bit like watching a 7-year-old school play. How can anyone actually produce this movie without laughing. This is 2023 if I only spent a few thousand dollars on some animation it would have gone a long way. The only thing that was good was the sex scene at the start. It went completely downhill after that. I'm not sure why Amazon would even put this on their movie list as it seems a very d-rated movie with a very small budget.

I had never heard of this movie before which probably was a good indication that the movie was not that great. After the first 10 minutes, I debated whether to watch it but decided to watch the whole thing to see if it would get better. The movie is not worth watching:

The plot was very predictable. I guessed what was going to happen before it happened like what was going to happen at the village in the woods, when he reached the castle and the ending. I did not think the story line or acting was that great. A waste of time. Find a better movie to watch. I watched it on Amazon Prime which was included free on my account. Don't waste your money renting or streaming it.

Just finished watching the movie and despite its clear lack of budget I couldn't help but be completely engrossed in the movie. I feel that if they were to remake it with a higher budget it could be massive.
