Dylan R It was absolutely superb in every single way, Keith Migra carried the film. Rated 5 out of 5 stars 05/25/23 Full Review Alain M oh god, bad CGI, worse make up, and the acting and the story is just beyond awfull, please save yourself of losing 90 min of your time Rated 1.5 out of 5 stars 02/19/23 Full Review Audience Member It kept coming up in my recommendations on Tubi so I figured I'd watch it to get it over with. Acting was 80/20. It wasn't too generic for low budget. I could have been okay, but as a writer, the "twist" was not a twist. It was just lazy writing. Not one iota of anything that alludes to the existence of the new character they spring out at the end. There are so many good films by unknowns and newbies that hardly get airtime. But then these DIY self-proclaimed filmmakers somehow get a budget and produce films that are mediocre at best. Instead of making an effort they rush things all for sake of uploading so they can label themselves a filmmaker.. the whole quality over quantity thing just escapes them. Rated 2 out of 5 stars 01/13/23 Full Review Bianca R It´s very very poorley directed and written. And come on, the jokes are just not funny and yet there are pauses so you can laugh. Rated 2 out of 5 stars 01/23/22 Full Review Audience Member I wasn't sure if this was a horror or a comedy, because when the werewolf came it, it looked more like the cowardly lion than anything sinister. The script is sparse and elementary, which doesn't help the flick, either. Rated 1 out of 5 stars 01/12/23 Full Review Read all reviews
