Audience Member A writer brings his family to stay in rural Ireland to find out more about his family roots and discovers that he is a wolf and everyone in the town changes into animals. Producers wisely cast 1995 Playmate of the Year, Julie Lynn Cialini, to add interest to an otherwise largely forgettable film and really the only reason I rewatched this one. Rated 2 out of 5 stars 02/13/23 Full Review Audience Member Writer moves back to Ireland where he is confronted by a mysterious past involving wolfhounds. Seemingly unable to fully commit to the wolfhound idea, New Concorde hedges their bets with a heavy (and welcome) dose of Julie Cialini, who is sensational. Rated 3 out of 5 stars 02/24/23 Full Review Audience Member I realized about a half hour into this film that they were seriously attempting to make an 'erotic thriller.' They failed on both counts. Gobs of lifeless nudity can't balance out the intensely bad acting, aggravating characters, and crappy music. Acting titan Julie Cialini has only one job: stand around naked looking pretty. She can't even get that right. She looks lost and more than a little confused without a stripper pole to guide her. It's that kind of movie. There are some interesting ideas squandered on a bad cast and script. I'm a sucker for shape changer films, but this one is just a channel changer. And as a side note; wouldn't breast implants make life difficult for a shape changer? And anyone looking for a werewolf movie can keep looking. They're turning into dogs, not wolves. Rated 2 out of 5 stars 02/26/23 Full Review Audience Member A writer travels with family to parent's homeland for inspiration only to find out he is a wolf. Actually everyone in the village trasforms to and from animals. Only thing of interest here is 1995 Playmate of the Year, Julie Cialini. Rated 2 out of 5 stars 01/28/23 Full Review Audience Member What a clunker! I was under the impression that this would be a horror film with a bit of soft porn. Nope. Mostly soft porn. I would say about 30 minutes are taken up with nudity or sex scenes, none of which contributes to the story. Come to think of it, there isn't much story. The lead character goes back to Ireland, the land of his roots, to write a book. Cliche. There he finds there was a family secret. Cliche. His family are shapeshifters! They can turn into.....WOLFHOUNDS!!! Not a cliche. Why? Because it is so stupid no one would ever think of writing that kindof nonsense...until now. I gave it 1 1/2 stars for the nice Irish scenery and a couple of decent acting jobs by some of the minor players. Hopefully, if nothing else, this gave some decent Irish actors some money and screen credits. Rated 1.5 out of 5 stars 01/31/23 Full Review Audience Member it is not american but it is amazing i loved the morals of the movie and the good behaviour of the hero.
