I'm beginning to see several movies or shows like this... The werewolves (at least they're advertised that way) are just just people with fangs and glowing eyes. Sounds and looks exactly like vampires to me... which they also have in the movie. I have absolutely no idea how they're different and can even be told apart. And apparently none of the people involved in the making of this movie have any idea what a werewolf is supposed to be. I actually hated this even more than the kind of movies that just make werewolves people that just completely turn into regular looking wolves. That's not scary and nor is it imaginative. A werewolf is supposed to be a blend of the human and the beast. Not like a Siberian husky or a vampire just being called a werewolf. Even the teen Wolf TV show at least gave the "werewolves" some sort of a different brow shape and some nice mutton chops and pointy ears... Although nothing really wolf like about them either. We need a werewolf movie with like the werewolf from Cabin in the Woods... Why can't someone make that happen? That is literally one of the most perfect werewolves in cinema history and it was just a throwaway in that movie. They make like 50 vampire movies and series a year and for us werewolf fans this is the kind of crap that we get almost all the time. The last decent werewolf movie was the Wolfman in 2010 but the directors cut... And truthfully that wasn't even that great. The time period and the sets were gorgeous. Rick Baker's makeup was of course amazing, but it got tarnished with too much CGI in the transformation scenes. The sad part is that the CGI was actually very good especially for that time, but it's still CGI and you know that and it takes you out of the realism of the scene, that's the entire movie. Howl wasn't a bad one either I guess, but the creatures were kinda like the inbred hillbillies of werewolves. I couldn't take anymore of this movie after the first 35 minutes so I had to turn it off, which I never really ever do to a movie. Dodge it like a silver bullet!

I was on Amazon Prime looking at werewolf movies and I saw this one came out last year, but I'd never even heard of it. I thought it was going to be mediocre at best... But I actually really enjoyed this movie! The werewolves look cool there's plenty of them to see, they do some cool stuff, and they do some disgusting stuff and there are a lot of funny parts in this movie that make it for sure a horror/comedy. I'm a huge werewolf fan and I feel like we get nowhere near the amount of movies, especially not the amount of cool movies that vampire fans get. So I really keep my eyes out for anything new but a lot of them are actually pretty terrible...the werewolves look bad and then the makeup sucks, and the production value isn't very good. Some movies you literally see the werewolf for like less than a couple minutes. I saw a movie recently that what they used as the werewolf suit for the movie, is actually the same exact suit you can buy from Party City at Halloween. Like they didn't change it and left it as it was. A $100 dollar costume. I work in the film industry and I was like, how could there have been a few people that put this movie together didn't notice or saw nothing wrong with that the creature star of the movie was just a costume from the store.
