Imagine if high school student Scott Howard from Teen Wolf grew up, traded his letter jacket for a police uniform, and became a barely functioning alcoholic. Sound interesting? Then you'll likely dig Lowell Dean’s WolfCop, a creature feature with a wicked sense of humor that's packed with blood-soaked practical effects. Today, Image Entertainment unleashed WolfCop on Blu-ray and DVD, and to celebrate the release, they've provided us with two prize packs to give away to a couple of lucky Daily Dead readers. The grand prize contains a Blu-ray copy of the film, a flask (to go with the bottoms up spirit of Lou Garou), a signed poster featuring WolfCop sprawled out on his own human skin, and more.

"Officer Lou Garou isn’t the best cop in small-town Woodhaven – in fact, he’s probably the worst. He mostly just looks to avoid anything that could possibly interfere with his goal of getting wasted.

WolfCop (2014)

Written and directed by Lowell Dean (13 Eerie) and starring Leo Fafard (Corner Gas: The Movie), Amy Matysio (Lawrence & Holloman), Jonathan Cherry (Final Destination 2), Aidan Devine (Outlander) and Sarah Lind (Severed).

This weekend has been dubbed “Werewolf Weekend”, as I have not one, but two movies to review, that just both happen to be werewolves. I wasn't sure what to expect, when I was asked if I wanted to review WolfCop. Any werewolf movie immediately has my attention, but this just had 'cheesy schlock film' written all over it. It just raised a whole lot of questions in my mind, and I wasn't certain I'd be able to give it a good review, let alone finish the thing.

However, WolfCop is a perfect example of why you shouldn't judge too harshly, before giving something a chance. Was it cheesy? Absolutely. Was it schlocky?...

There will be plenty going on during the Toronto International Film Festival (Tiff), and the makers of "Corner Gas: The Movie" want to add to the fun by inviting the public to star in their flick.

The catch? You have to sing.

With Tiff in full swing, the people behind the big-screen adaptation of the Canadian television favourite will host a "Corner Gas Sing-a-Long Booth" at the intersection of Queen and John Streets, outside CTV's headquarters, from Sept. 4 to 13, said a Wednesday news release.

People will be invited to sing the show's theme song "Not a Lot Goin' On" karaoke-style, with the help of scrolling lyrics.

Singers' voices will then be mashed up and played over the end credits, while a number of people's videos will be shown in theatres, online and on a collectors' edition DVD.

The booth, which will look like the grain elevators you find on the Prairies,...
