This movie isn't a masterpiece, but the story was compelling, and you could tell the cast was having a good time despite awful special effects. Although most of the special effects and filming were poor, there was a real sense that the filmmakers wanted to do something memorable with a limited budget. I like how they explained the origins of the events, and I like how it managed to outdo a Hallmark or Lifetime movie. I like cheaply made movies just as much as I like big budget professional productions, and I have a feeling this movie will wind up as a contender for the title of greatest so bad it's good movie of 2020.
Thank you for asking, yes I have seen Werewolf Island:Island of the Werewolf. It's a movie, it's terrible. It would be super mean of me to say everyone involved did a bad job and should be embarrassed because everyone involved with this movie did a bad job and should be embarrassed. Like, use violence to get better responses from the writer, the director and the cast, and not idle threats of violence, back those threats up with loaded weapons, kidnap their loved ones and hold them hostage with the threat issued to the writer, the director and the cast, " do a better job, or I will kill your loved ones". Because every little bit helps.
I've lived 30 minutes away from Monroe, Michigan my whole life, and regardless of what you think of the movie, know that Dog Lady Island is a real place with an endless amount of stories. The buildings, sights, and street names in this film are all real.
I give Michael J Alexander mad props for writing, directing, and acting in this film, and I appreciate him bringing light to a local legend, but I would be lying if I said I thought his acting was good. I could ignore that the camera, editing and effects aren't up to Hollywood standards if the acting wasn't so underwhelming. I don't want to speak for all the actors/actresses, because some of them do well (I liked the 1920 scene a lot, and I thought Lilly and Detective Taylor were convincing as characters), but most of the acting in this film feels very insincere, stale, and like it's being read off the page for the first time.
I did think the actual story written was interesting, however there were scenes that seemed to have a lack of script, or repetition in the script that didn't make sense to me. In one scene, there's a point where Detective James says the same line four times in less than a five minute period.
Overall, I appreciate this film, and while I take into consideration that it's independently made, it was hard to look past the awkward acting by about half the cast. A few redeeming moments, but I can't say I see it becoming anything classic. Just my opinion of course.

This is hands down the worst movie I have ever seen. Do not subject yourself to 10 minutes of this movie, let alone an hour and a half!! You are better off if you dump battery acid into your eyes and chew on hot coals! The acting is horrible, the props are from the dollar tree, and the filming looks like it was done for a sixth grade project! The guns are literally cap guns! How this movie was made in the year 2020 is beyond me! If I could give this movie 0/10 stars I would! DO NOT WATCH THIS MOVIE!!
The acting is terrible, the sound is wal mart, and the costumes are Party City. The guns they used in the fight were clearly unmistakable plastic toys firing caps and the wigs were dollar store, as were the uniforms.
Skunk pee does not stink this bad.
