But executed horribly, unfortunately. We will watch any horror movie B or less, especially werewolf movies. So this could have been pretty good if the acting and writing were better. We like Thomas Jane but he acted like a weird hick and there really was no reason why he had to make the character like that. Good twist, but they kind of set it up too early so you figure it out. You also don't really like anyone in it.
When I saw a clip of this movie I thought it looked decent enough. It gave the impression of a group of people holed up in a house under attack by werewolves. Unfortunately that's not what it is! What we have here is some very low budget, woefully acted, poorly written mess of a movie. Avoid. If you want a movie like that which I originally thought this was then instead check out Dog Soldiers to see it done properly.
Lots is going on in this low budget shocker. A family move into a farmhouse during a local killing spree. The three daughters are precocious, sardonic and stunning, mum Bernice (Amanda Wyss) copes with it all, and dad Tom (Jay Mohr) doesn't have any lenses in his spectacles. Unwisely, you might think, the daughters are left along in the house.
As the story rolls along, it becomes apparent that we're not invited to take things entirely seriously. This never lapses into comedy, but many moments are distinctly tongue in cheek. All the double-entendres about a girl's 'first time', for example, are given extra meaning within the context of various revelations, which are a long time coming.
What we get is just under 80 minutes that are entertaining enough, but probably don't warrant a second viewing. My score is 6 out of 10.

It has a decent cast and it's about werewolves, which I love. But oh dear what a shambles this was, what the hell has happened to Tom Jane? His acting in this was poor and don't get me started on Jay Mohr he was horrible, we saw the Werewolf once and it looked plastic I mean wtf!!!
When will somone make a good scary Werewolf film, please.... Anyone?
