Synopsis

Loren doesn't like her new neighbor, Jared, or his vicious dog. Along with her friend Steven, Loren spies on Jared and begins to suspect he's a werewolf, responsible for a rash of disappearances. But Jared is watching her just as closely because Loren reminds him of his dead wife. As a full-moon night nears, Loren enlists the help of TV star Redd Tucker, who knows how to hunt -- and who believes her werewolf theory.

Reviews

vampiri I Believe that most of us would agree on that most new Movies are not really new but merely rehashes in various degrees of already released ones. But some are more obvious than others and Never Cry Werewolf is a major rehash of Stoker's novel Dracula and Fright Night in particular (which in turn is, obviously, based on Dracula).Plot: teenage girl suspects her new neighbor of being a werewolf. She finds herself alone in her quest to reveal his secret until a waning TV star joins her quest.Movie Essentials like script, acting, directing and casting are basically missing in this production besides Beautiful Vampire Diaries star Nina Dobrev. Kevin Sorbo's contribution is ridiculous and even worse than in the Hercules series.what it does have going is atmosphere and scenography which are quite good actually, it reminds me of Carpenter's old Movies. The sfx are not top notch but reasonably good.I give it 3 out of 10, for those who are novices to the genre it might be Worth watching, but for the lovers of vampire and werewolf Movies it is a total waste of time.
Wuchak I don't get the lukewarm reviews as "Never Cry Werewolf" (2008) is a worthy addition to the werewolf genre. Yes, it rips-off the plot of a popular film from two decades earlier, "Fright Night" and, yes, it is a made-for-TV flick, but despite these factors it delivers as a half-serious/half-comedy werewolf flick.PLOT: A mysterious man (Peter Stebbings) moves in next door to teenager Loren (Nina Dobrev) and she concludes that he's a werewolf. Of course, no one believes her so she enlists the help of a washed-up reality show actor (Kevin Sorbo).Like I said, "Never Cry Werewolf" only plays it semi-straight, so don't expect the dead-serious vibe of, say, "wolfen" or even "Red Riding Hood." Stebbings is reminiscent of Hugh Jackman's Wolverine here and is excellent in the role. But he's clearly at least 36 years-old and so it's a bit disturbing that he's literally sniffing around a 16 year-old girl.Nina is good as the protagonist and has a cute look, but I prefer her friend in the story, Angie, played by Melanie Leishman. Melanie may not be as cute but she has better curves. In any event, her role is too small.As always, Sorbo is extremely likable. He plays a reluctant hero in this one.The film was shot in Brantford & Hamilton, Ontario, and runs 87 minutes.FINAL WORD: Although "Never Cry Werewolf" loses points for blatantly ripping off "Fright Night," the bottom line is that it's entertaining from beginning to end. The werewolf lore is sound and the cast is solid. In addition, the werewolf looks menacing and there's a lot of goofy gore. It's just a fun film. What more do you want from a low-budget werewolf flick? GRADE: B-
azcowboysingr I know...it's the most blatant rip-off of Fright Night imaginable...I can't understand how the writer wasn't sued for plagiarism...lol...BUT I liked it for two reasons...both of which are attached to Nina Dobrev's chest...wowza!!! Actually, the acting was credible, the werewolf effects were well done, and Kevin Sorbo was delightful as the has-been TV star who, although a total phony, came through at the end as a genuine hero (Yes, Roddy McDowell did it better but then he was a GREAT actor, not just an competent actor)...In short, while no Academy Award winner, it was fun to watch. I'm going to add this one to my werewolf collection. At least, the werewolf looked good, not like that crummy chow-chow dog they used in American Werewolf in London...what a waste of film THAT one was!!!
Samantha Morrison I really didn't understand why some users said that they didn't like this movie. I loved it! It's about a guy that moves in next door by a 16 year old girl named Lauren. You can tell right away that he is interested in her and thinks she was someone he knew a long time before. Then on she finds herself discovering that he is a werewolf and he's after her. So just to sum this up he is a hot guy that's a werewolf who is kinda obsessed with the girl and is after her to make her his. So if you like the whole thriller/obsession/horror film this is perfect. I can say I really liked it and yes it does have some parts like the movie Fright Night but overall this movie was way better.
