Cobweb - 2023

Lizzy Caplan, Anthony Starr, Woody Norman, Cleopatra Coleman, Olivia Sussman, Debra Wilson, Aleksandra Dragova

Review: Cobweb is a movie about a boy who is being bullied in school, and has some very strange parents. The boy starts to here a knocking, and then a voice in the walls. No one believes him, but with no one else, the boy befriends the voice. Then things start going downhill...

I was quite taken with the first hour of this movie. The pacing is relentless, the opening scene immediately throws you into it. The acting and cinematography are amazing. Anthony Starr can play a sociopath so well, it's a bit scary. Lizzy Caplan did a good job as the mother, and for some reason talked like she was in the 1800s the whole movie which was unsettling, especially when this is set in modern time. The kid, played by Woody Norman, was a great addition, and does just as good as the two adult actors.

The story for that first hour is very engaging and keeps you interested. Things are happening around the house that makes you question what the voice is, like doors closing by themselves. The voice tells the kid about things that his parents have done, and helps him through some issues he was having at school. It builds trust with him over time.

SPOILERS: The voice reveals that she is his sister, and she has been kept in the walls because their parents decided that they didn't want her anymore. She had waited all this time to talk to him because she needed him to be big enough to move the clock away from the wall and unlock the secret door. From this moment on, they throw all logic out the window.

She needed him to be big enough to be able to move the clock away from the wall? She's ripping people to pieces with ease. Why is she not strong enough to fight back against the kid pulling her hair? How were the doors opening and closing by themselves if this is an actual physical being and not a spirit? Why are her parents trying to keep her inside the house? If she's this dangerous why not have some professionals come take care of her? Or just kill her themselves? Then they do a shitty CGI face reveal of the sister, and I was out. All of the potential the movie built up is squandered with the last thirty minutes of the movie, and it was hugely disappointing.

Totally Killer - 2023

Kiernan Shipka, Olivia Holt, Charlie Gillespie, Lochlyn Munro, Troy Leigh-Anne Johnson, Liana Liberato, Kelcey Mawema, Stephi Chin-Salvo, Ella Choi, Nathaniel Appiah, Jeremy Monn-Djasngar, Jeremy Monn-Djasngar, Randall Park, Julie Bowen

Review: This movie is about a serial killer that killed three girls thirty five years ago, who has come back to the small town he started in. The main character named Jamie has a friend that builds a time machine, and when being attacked by the killer she jumps into it and accidently gets sent back to the day the first murders started to happen.

The movie was fine. It was a lot of fun, and I enjoyed the movie throughout. It has it's challenges, especially the time travel issues. I think it's pretty common at this point for time travel to be a problematic issue with almost any movie that has it involved in it.

The movie was a horror/comedy, and I think it balanced that pretty well. I laughed out loud a few times. The scenes with the killer are brutal and bloody. The acting was good, and I loved the constant reality checks the main character gets for how different the 80's were from 2023.

There are countless references to 80's movies, to the point where it might affect your watch of the movie if you don't understand. Half the fun of the movie is seeing all the little details. References to Back To The Future, all the John Hughes movies, Heathers, and I assume even references that went over my head. Molly Ringwald is literally the inspiration for the group of popular girls.

I think it's worth the watch, but don't expect anything groundbreaking. If you want some 80's movie, John Hughes nostalgia then I'd watch the movie. It's a lot of fun.

6.9/10

Deadstream - 2022

Joseph Winter, Melanie Stone

Review: This was a movie about an internet influencer who had gotten into controversy, and had taken a break for awhile. This haunted house stream was going to be his big come back, but when he gets there he finds a lot more then he anticipated.

This movie wasn't terrible. I thoroughly enjoyed my watch of this. It was fun, and was a very good satire on the current streaming environment, and the ridiculous lengths people will go for viewers and followers. This movie is a horror/comedy, and it does a good job at handling both things, my one issue is that he spirit of Mildred is very silly.

The main spirit of the house is the spirit of a woman named Mildred who hung herself in the hallway of the house. He encounters her several times, and every time she got close she would either try to put her finger up his nose, or try to bite his crotch. When we finally get to the final fight at the end, it turns up the horror aspects of things.

This movie had some interesting moments. At one point he incapacitates the ghost, and straps a camera to it's head so he can track where it goes as he runs away. That was a pretty neat idea, even though it makes no sense if you think about it. It doesn't seem this ghost follows normal ghost rules.

This movie and the movie Dashcam have a lot in common, except you can actually enjoy watching the main character on screen. Dashcam also had some really scary moments, and moments that actually jump you. This movie doesn't commit to the full terror. Some moments are really creepy while others are just stupid and silly. It's not the kind of movie I would watch if I wanted to be scared, but a good horror/comedy that made me laugh out loud a few times, while also keeping that creepy atmosphere.

6.8/10

The Serpent and the Rainbow - 1988

Bill Pullman, Zakes Mokae, Cathy Tyson, Conrad Roberts, Paul Winfield, Brent Jennings

Review: An anthropologist is sent to Haiti to study a drug that is reportedly turning people into zombies. He ends up falling into the middle of a corrupt police department using the drug to fake people's deaths and bury them without them actually being dead.

This movie was a little hard to follow at times. I think I would have to watch it again to have a good grasp on all of the plot points. The movie is filled with visions and hallucinations, and some moments of the movie are so surreal its hard to tell what's real and what isn't.

The movie follows an anthropologist working with a local man that knows how to make the drug, so he can bring it back to the US to test it. At one point the corrupt police captain kidnaps the anthropologist, threatens to kill him if he comes back, and puts him on an airplane back to the US. As he sits on the airplane, the local shows up out of the blue to give him the finished drug to take home with him. How? How did he know where he would be? The anthropologist was kidnapped. It was a very surreal scene that I figured was just a hallucination because of how incredibly unlikely it would be that it would happen at all.

What I seem to be the most confused about is the use of the drug. The captain of the local police department is using the drug to make people seem dead, its a heavy paralytic that slows the breathing and wears off after about 12 hours. Another aspect of the movie, that has a huge impact in the end, is that the captain can also steal souls after someone has recently died. This is the part that I don't understand. What is the point of "killing people" with the drug, if he could just actually kill them and steal their soul? At the end of the movie (spoilers) the anthropologist uses the stolen souls (which are kept in jars in the corrupt captain's office) by throwing the jars of the floor and breaking them, the souls then drag the captain to his death, but then he comes back again just to be killed again? I don't know, he seems pretty dead in this soul scene, but he's finally killed and gone after the anthropologist sends his soul to hell.

The acting in the movie is really good, I really like Bull Pullman, so it sucks that I feel like I can't wrap my head around the motivations of the main villain of the movie. The movie had some good creepy scenes. I may need to rewatch it to give it a concrete rating, but for now...

5.8/10

Talk To Me - 2023

Sophie Wilde, Marcus Johnson, Zoe Terakes, Miranda Otto, Joe Bird, Chris Alosio, Jett Gazley, Otis Dhanji, Alexandra Jensen

Review: Talk To Me is about a group of teenagers that have come into the possession of a statue of a hand. The hand is able to connect them to the spirit side when they touched it and say "Talk To Me" then after the spirit appears they say "I let you in" to be possessed by them. As long as they let go of the hand in 90 seconds than they should be fine. They do this because it's a rush and fun for the people around them.

The movie is top tier. I really connected with the characters, the writing and the visuals throughout the whole thing. After minimal, but meaningful set up we get right into the action, and it keeps pace through the whole movie. Small things happen in the background that when noticed amplify the story even more. The story is really good, and its got sympathetic characters that albeit did a really stupid thing. Although you can see the motivations behind why the main character continues doing what she's doing. The movie really is a metaphor for drug use as a way to cope with grief.

The acting is great, everyone did a great job. The scenes where they are possessed are great, and are really convincing. Being in the room with someone acting like they were would have been uncomfortable enough even if I knew it wasn't real. The gore was light but effective. The big scene in the movie is brutal, and not one that will be forgotten anytime soon.

The message of the movie is a strong and meaningful one. It was a great movie, especially for being the directorial debut of the Philippou Brothers. I hope to see more from them.

7.8/10

Joy Ride - 2001

Steve Zahn, Paul Walker, Leelee Sobieski, Jessica Bowman, Jim Beaver

Review: Joy Ride was a fun movie! It's got the horror elements mixed just right with the thriller elements, and it makes for a good edge of your seat movie.

A man and his brother prank a trucker, and the trucker decides he wants some revenge. Honestly the plot is a pretty straightforward one, and they put a good spin on it with the trucker aspects of the movie. It takes a somewhat overused premise, and makes it a bit more interesting.

Paul Walker and Steve Zahn have some great chemistry together on screen, and I could absolutely buy that they were brothers. Just after a little bit of being together they were already back to the older brother convincing the younger brother to do something he knew he shouldn't.

Rusty Nail was a good antagonist. He's quite intimidating, and as soon as you start to hear his voice come over the radio you start to feel uneasy. The fact that they never do reveal his face makes it that much better too. That anticipation is still there, and it really works well in the movie.

I feel like the end could have used that little extra punch of one of the brothers dying at the end, but I'm never upset that a horror movie had a somewhat happy ending, even if Rusty Nail is still out there being a murderer.

6.8/10

The Horde - 2009

Claude Perron, Jean-Pierre Martins, Eriq Ebouaney, Aurélien Recoing, Doudou Masta, Yves Pignot

Review: This French movie is about a group of police officers performing a raid on a group of criminals in large semi-abandoned apartment building on the outskirts of a big city. As they are performing the raid, the zombie apocalypse happens, and fast moving zombies surround the building. This forces the criminals and cops to have to work together to get out of the building.

I had a hard time connecting with the characters in the movie at the beginning. There were a lot of conflict. There was conflict between the criminals and the officers, there was conflict amongst the cops, there was conflict between the criminals, and just trying to keep everything straight, and who was mad at who and why was a lot.

In the last half of the movie, when the numbers of survivors have dwindled quite a lot, it becomes more interesting, and I was able to enjoy the characters a little more.

The movie does have a lot of zombies in it, and has a lot of good action scenes with the zombies, but I found the bulk of the movie to be about the conflict amongst humans. One specific scene that I thoroughly enjoyed was at the end, when one of the main characters sacrifices himself and does one last stand against the large horde.

I feel like I should point out the very glaring stupidity in the movie. They see, time after time, that they only way to stop the zombies is shoot them in the head, but they never go for the head. Also, they are in a building where there aren't a huge amount of zombies, because it was a semi-abandoned building, but for some reason they feel the need to go outside with the hundreds of fast moving zombies.

Overall, it had some cool moments, but it was a pretty average zombie movie.

5.8/10

Replicas - 2018

Keanu Reeves, Alice Eve, Thomas Middleditch, John Ortiz, Emjay Anthony, Emily Alyn Lind, Aria Lyric Leabu

Review: This movie was odd, it played with the line of being an okay movie, and being an shitty movie every few scenes, and unfortunately I think that the shit outweighed the good by the end. It's weird though, because I still kind of liked the movie, even though I know it wasn't good.

The movie is about a man played by Keanu Reeves who is a scientist working with trying to copy a human brain, and put it into a robot. While his friend, and coworker works with clones. Keanu's family died in an accident, and his friend and him try to bring them back by combining their two jobs and transferring his family's minds into clones of them.

The movie's logic is awful. Whether it be the fact that he tries to delete his daughter's memory from his other family members minds because they don't have enough cloning pods (even though he could have just cloned her after he did them) or the fact that they just steal a bunch of stuff from Keanu's workplace for almost a month without anyone asking any questions. Somehow cloning his wife takes the same amount of time as cloning his kids, even though it's deliberately mentioned that the longer they stay in the pods the older they get, so how would a 35-40 year old woman take as much time to clone as a 10 year old child? I could go on and on with the logical flaws in the movie.

The dialogue is atrocious. "You know I told you about the thing? Well their were some things I may have left out" another scene was Thomas Middleditch constantly talking about the clones "levels" and how they can be thrown off because their "levels" are really important, but he doesn't seem to elaborate any further about that.

The acting wasn't good. Keanu has some hits and misses when it comes to acting, and this is a 100% miss. Him trying to cry as he brings the bodies of his family members out of the water and onto the embankment was difficult to watch because of how cringey his state or at crying is. After they bring his family back, the wife seems like a robot.

When they put Keanu's mind into the robot, the CGI for the robot was very off. It was like the robot was running at a different frame rate then everyone else. This happens at the beginning of the movie as well.

The end plot twist doesn't make any sense to me. His boss, and the robot just tried killing each other over the fact he brought his family back, but they end up working together again anyway? Just seems really weird.

I don't know, the movie wasn't good, but for some reason I feel like I want to watch it again?

5.6/10

Scooby-Doo - 2002

Matthew Lillard, Sarah Michelle Gellar, Freddie Prinze Jr., Linda Cardellini, Rowan Atkinson, Isla Fisher, Steven Grives, Miguel A. Núñez Jr.

Review: it was a great movie when I was a kid, and I hadn’t seen it since my early teens, so I had my fingers crossed that it would hold up. It actually surpassed those expectations. I picked up on new jokes that as an adult I actually get, and it made the movie even better.

All of the cast was on point, and delivered a great performance while also staying true to the characters they were portraying. Matthew Lillard is the standout here though, his relationship with Scooby is the best part of this whole movie. Not to mention that Matthew Lillard IS Shaggy Rogers. I was the most upset with the Scoob! movie because they recast Shaggy with someone else, and Matthew Lillard didn't deserve that.

James Gunn did a great job writing the script for this, and made the movie a bit edgy while also keeping it great for the kids. The storyline was great, Scrappy being the villain at the end was fantastic and hilarious.

Honestly giving this a rewatch and reliving a bit of my childhood was just what I needed, and this movie is the perfect way to sit down and relax.

7.5/10

Ginger Snaps - 2000

Emily Perkins, Katharine Isabelle, Kris Lemche, Mimi Rogers, Jesse Moss

*this movie has dogs dying in it. Not just the mention of dogs dying, but actual practical effects made to look like a couple of dogs are essentially torn in half. It's hard to look at, it bothered me, and I know a lot of people like to know to be able to avoid it. So consider this a PSA for those people.*

Review: This movie is pretty good, I can see why it's a cult classic. It's got good gore (specifically the practical effects used), good acting from the two lead characters, and I found the writing to be intriguing with some small issues here and there.

It's for sure a coming of age story. A lot of themes within the movie are the struggles of being different in high school, and dealing with the ups and downs of puberty. The movie is a pretty direct metaphor for dealing with puberty and the struggles that come with it.

I found the story as a whole to be quite depressing overall. From the obsession of death shared between the two sisters, to the overall tone set by both of the sisters through out the movie, its very depressing, but it's suppose to be. So its good, if that makes sense. The succeeded in the tone they were trying to set.

The only problem with the acting I had was after the "love interest" in the movie turns, and we see him for those couple of small scenes as he starts to deal with the effects of lycanthropy. It's very awkward and didn't really seem to fit the tone of the movie.

One thing I'm a bit bummed about was the side story with the mom finding the fingers of one of the people the daughter kills, and going out herself to find her daughters. She came up with a whole plan of them leaving, and burning down there house? She was such a sweet woman in the beginning, and I was invested in her character development as she became a woman willing to ditch her entire life to keep her daughters safe, even if they were horrible people. Unfortunately we just ditch her storyline towards the end, and we don't get real closure for her part of the story.

Overall, I think it worth a watch if you feel like you can stomach some pretty nasty practical effects. The writing, and the acting are both good for the most part, and create a story with memorable characters, and story.

A Merry Friggin' Christmas - 2014

Robin Williams, Joel McHale, Tim Heidecker, Wendi McLendon-Covey, Lauren Graham, Clark Duke, Oliver Platt, Candice Bergen, Pierce Gagnon

Review: Christmas movies are a very specific formula. They are meant to make you think about friends and family, and get excited about the Christmas season. A Merry Friggin' Christmas tries to do that, and certainly has the cast to do so. Unfortunately, I don't think they pulled it off very well, although still hitting those notes a little here and there.

This cast should have been an achievement for this movie, but you could have literally casted anyone in this and it would have been the same movie. The cast was a powerhouse, and the writing of the movie just made it sad they didn't make use of them as best as they could.

Robin Williams seems depressed in this movie. Even after his characters turning point he just didn't bring that fun and happiness he usually does to his movies. It feels almost like a mistake to watch it. It's not that I think Robin Williams should have done a better job or anything like that, he just didn't seem like himself.

The storyline is pretty linear and involves a LOT of luck from the universe to get things done like they did. This applies more to the end when the cop doesn't even try to pursue them after the porta potty falls off the truck, and they "hit" the Santa in the road, even though I'm not sure what actually happened during that scene at all. They establish that he speeds everywhere (he gets pulled over twice and then sort of pursued a third time) but then he hits the Santa but he's totally fine and without a scratch.

The jokes don't hit almost at all, I chuckled two or three times through this 90 minute comedy, and I can't even remember why or what the jokes were. I'm writing this fifteen minutes after watching the movie.

The movie was low tier, and I probably won't watch it again. It makes me sad that this movie was released after Robin Williams died, and you can tell he isn't doing okay in the movie.

4.6/10

Black Box - 2020

Mamoudou Athie, Phylcia Rashad, Amanda Christine, Tosin Morohunfola, Charmaine Bingwa, Troy James

Review: Black Box is a physiological thriller/horror, and is based on technology that allows amnesia patients to relive memories to try to regain their memory.

This movie was honestly great, and I'm going to spoil most of the important parts in the review, so if you want to watch it I probably wouldn't read this.

I really liked the slow reveal of what's going on as the movie plays. We slowly start finding out details, and are able to put the story together as it goes. Some parts are quite predictable, but I liked the big twist that she transplanted part of her son's brain into this man's body.

I liked the dynamic of the two men fighting over the body's consciousness, and the doctor's son's growth as a character in just a short period of time on screen. He got to see what a terrible person he was, and want a fucked up thing his mom did, and made the conscious decision to leave the body.

I don't think I would consider this movie to be a horror movie. It was definitely more of a physiological thriller then anything else. The acting in the movie was fine, usual the Achilles heal for horror movies are the child actors, and I thought we might have this problem at first but enjoyed the character of the daughter a lot by the end.

I enjoyed the movie a lot. I would definitely recommend this movie, but not if you're looking for a straight horror movie.

7.2/10

Hocus Pocus - 1993

Bette Midler, Sarah Jessica Parker, Kathy Najimy, Omri Katz, Thora Birch, Vinessa Shaw, Doug Jones, Sean Murray

Review: I had never seen Hocus Pocus before this, and honestly it was because the premise of the movie never really intrigued me, and knowing it was a Disney original TV movie, I wasn't really expecting anything quality. It's honestly like Hallmark movies, they all have the same kind of feel to them.

I was wrong about Hocus Pocus. This movie definitely elevates the Disney TV Film category a bit. The movie is a lot darker then I would have thought it to be, literally killing a child in the first five minutes of the movie. The movie also had a lot more thinly veiled sex jokes then I would have imagined. This grabbed my attention at the beginning, and they were sprinkled in enough so that my attention was kept through the whole movie, and it was actually quite funny.

I will say that the kids acting in this movie is rough in places. Overly rehearsed, and sometimes feels like they are reading words off from a page without a lot of emotion or tone behind their voice. It's kids though, in a kids movie, so obviously no one was trying to get an Oscar worthy performance.

The storyline is fine, very straightforward. The acting from the Sanderson sisters made the predictable story fun to watch. The part of it that I have the biggest issue with is the subplot of the kid being turned into a cat. I believe the curse was that he had to live as a cat as long as he still felt guilt about the death of his sister. He gets turned into a cat at the beginning, and tries to get to the attention of his parents, but they just think its a cat and brush him off. When they do the flash forward 300 years, he could magically talk. No explanation for that.

The movie was fine. It was better then I expected, and I understand the reachability of the movie because it has that 90's nostalgia that made me feel like a kid again.

6.4/10

Housebound - 2014

Morgana O'Reilly, Rima Te Wiata, Glen-Paul Waru, Ross Harper, Cameron Rhodes, Mick Innes

Review: Well, from the reviews of this that I read before I watched the movie, it seems as if I'm in the minority here in not really caring for this movie. They tried something different which I can appreciate, but overall I think it spread itself to thin and didn't really nail any of the things it tried.

The movie is a horror/comedy and starts with a woman named Kylie and her accomplice try to rob an ATM machine, which ends in them being caught, and her being placed under house arrest at her mother's house. We find out as the movie goes on that this house is a hotspot for local tragedy and history. She's assigned a probation officer, as well as a mandated counselor that comes and does sessions with her on a regular basis.

The first part of this is a haunting. We find out that the house use to be part of an asylum and an angry spirit is still hanging around the house because a counselor from the old asylum did something resulting in her death. It turns out the Kylie's probation officer is also an amateur ghost hunter, and they hunt for ghosts. These few scenes are the only ones in the movie that made me laugh, and I enjoyed quite a lot.

I was getting into the story about the haunting, but then it all of a sudden switches and the movie focuses on the fact that there has been a man living in the walls of the house without them knowing.

The fact that they decided to go with a dude living in the walls doesn't make any sense to me. They have a scene in the movie where Kylie's cell phone rings. She is on the second story of the house when the phone starts to ring. She assumes it's in her bag, and searches for it, but the phone ends up being all the way down in the basement. So, you're trying to tell me that she could clearly here her cell phone ring from the second story of the house, to the point where she thinks it's actually in the room with her, but a dude has gone unnoticed living in the walls of the house?

The movie tries to do to much. They have the haunting, the dude living in the walls, and then the end when they do the twist reveal of Kylie's counselor being the one that killed the girl in the asylum back in the day. He then tries to kill them, and chases them around the house. It all comes together in the end, and Kylie wins.

The movie was alright. In my opinion it was mediocre in all of what it tried to take on, and it makes the movie incredibly forgettable. It's also lacking on the comedy parts, and the horror parts.

5.6/10

Terrifier - 2016

Jenna Kanell, Samantha Scaffidi, David Howard Thornton, Catherine Corcoran, Pooya Mohseni, Matt McAllister, Michael Leavy

Review: Some horror movies can balance the gore and the storyline well. You can still have disgusting gore like The Blob or The Thing and still have a great story. This movie builds the story around the gore, and it really shows.

The acting is actually really good for the most part. The main character ran weird, and she runs a lot that was a little hard to watch, and the sister Victoria wasn't very good. I also got confused multiple times because I thought the actresses for the sister and the crazy homeless lady looked a lot alike.

The gore was very very over the top. It's easily in the top three goriest movies I've ever seen. It's like the director and writer worked together on the gore effects, and then just tried to come up with a story that got to use all of them. The girl being cut in half by the saw was especially brutal, maybe one of the worst scenes I've ever watched.

The clown was super creepy, and the fact that he never made a sound or spoke just added to the creepiness, even after being stabbed or hit across the face. The smile was fucking creepy.

If you want to see some people be literally ripped in half, then watch this movie. If you're looking for a plot anything past random people running into a warehouse just to be slaughtered by a clown than this isn't for you. The effects were cool, I would show someone just to gross them out.

5.5/10

Trollhunter - 2010

Otto Jesoersen, Robert Stoltenberg, Knut Nærum, Glenn Erland Tosterud, Johanna Mørck

Review: Trollhunter was a very interesting movie, that had a surprising amount of worldbuilding. The movie does start out a bit slow, and some segments here and there are a but of a drag to get through, but they never last long.

It follows a documentary team trying to make a video about a guy that has been poaching bear in the Norwegian wilderness. What they discovered is that it's a man actually hunting and killing trolls that seem to be displaying some kind of sickness.

The designs for the trolls are awesome, especially the last troll. They are very intimidating, and make you feel like the main characters are in serious danger. I like that it explains that there are different kinds of trolls, and they know what each type of troll is more sensitive too. It's cool that they had several scenes with trolls, so that we get to see different types of them.

I also like that this movie doesn't spoon feed as all the information we need about the trolls right at the beginning, we gradually learn about them as we go. It does come close to losing your attention in some places, because some scenes are very information heavy, and some scenes that it feels like nothing is really happening.

I really did like the movie though, and would absolutely recommend it.

7.1/10

Dog Soldiers - 2002

Sean Pertwee, Kevin McKidd, Emma Cleasby, Liam Cunningham, Thomas Lockyer, Darren Morfitt

Review: Dog Soldiers is a great werewolf movie. Some parts were legitimately scary, and its full of tension and gore.

A group of soldiers who are in the middle of a training exercise stumble into werewolf territory, and end up fighting for their lives.

The movie does a great job of setting the scene and establishing characters right from the start. Right at the beginning you like the main character, as he's refuses to do something that violated his morals despite knowing that it would take away his chances of being special ops.

You get clear development to characters through out the movie, and you get to know each one of their distinct personalities. I always like having small moments of sadness as characters are dying in a movie other than not caring if they die either way. The fight these guys give the werewolves is quite the watch. They never give up, to the point where when they don't even have weapons they try to fist fight them.

The werewolf design was great. Super creepy, and seeing it move was actually like watching a werewolf move. The director actually hired professional dancers to be in the werewolf costumes to make their movement more fluid, and they nailed it.

The acting is good for the most part, awkward scenes here the there but nothing to bad. Honestly, some of the dialogue went over my head because it's an early 2000's British movie, and some of the slang I didn't understand.

One scene is going to live in my head for awhile. That's always what you want in a horror movie, when you can still think about it and it disturbs you just thinking about it.

6.9/10
