Richard Brody The New Yorker 10/12/2020
The air of authenticity is amplified by the earnest agony of Stockwell's performance as a naïve public servant increasingly tormented by guilt. Go to Full Review

1.5/4
Mixing a Hollywood monster with a political monster is a promising idea, but this low-budget lycanthrope yarn plays like amateur hour nearly every step of the way. Go to Full Review

1/5
There's nothing fun or kitschy or silly about The Werewolf of Washington. There is only badness. And not the good kind. Go to Full Review

Sasha H @RT64181487 Mar 14 Lot of negative reviews on here , I think it's from people that obviously aren't into b movies at all. I love this movie, I would recommend to anyone that appreciates campy cheesy horror films. To me the pace is good not slow as other reviewers stated, and it's not a serious movie common have a little sense of humor why don't you. I can see why this movie is a cult classic . Loved the setting of the movie, it makes it a little different from all the other werewolf movies by being set in Washington D.C. See more David W @Sternhammer 06/13/2024 Always good to see Dean Stockwell but it's a fairly terrible, very light horror comedy. It's also very slow and overly 'talkie'. See more Steve D @RT35616104 08/05/2023 Cheese and surprisingly slow cheese. See more Butler C @Scottylo 07/20/2023 We've all said "this is the worst movie I've ever seen" but this this time I mean it. I love a good spoof, so I waited a good hour…no spoof ever came. It just continued on as the worst werewolf movie ever made! See more Gary D @RT53049889 12/29/2022 Quite possibly the worst movie I've seen in years. Acting, script, effects, direction are all extremely bad. Absolutely painful to watch. See more 05/04/2020 An extremely goofy political satire. I didn't know going in it was going to be a straight up cheap comedy, made by what seems to have been a bunch of hippies on acid. That said, there's a few chuckles to be had at the absurdity. Watching the DVD with interruptions from Elvira made it infinitely more watchable. See more Read all reviews
