By-TorX-1 There is an art to making bad horror movies that are a pleasure to watch due to their badness, but Strippers vs Werewolves is simply bad. Howlingly bad, in fact. OK, it is meant to be a horror-comedy and not to be taken seriously, but that (as John Landis masterfully demonstrated) is also an art, and this film misses the canvas by miles. It is not funny, scary or effective in any way and is generally an amateur affair. The tricksy split screen and use of strange animated stills is also very annoying and totally unnecessary. Added to this, the make-up effects are rudimentary and make the villains of the piece look less like werewolves and more like 19th century pub owners with muttonchop sideburns and big ears, while the much-heralded 'strippers' don't actually strip (I've seen Emmerdale episodes that are more daring). On a positive note (yes, there are one or two positive notes - literally one or two), it's always great to see the marvellous Sarah Douglas on screen and Alan Ford is a class act (now Cockneys vs Zombies is a good comedy-horror), but they deserve better than this shaggy-dog story.

David Love Well, the title of this film might lead you to think that this is either really cool in a postmodern ironic sort of way or truly dire. It's worth watching just so you can make your mind up.For me, it almost worked. Although some of the acting is poor, there are some good performances in here: Martin Compston (Red Road, Sweet 16, True North) is particularly good. Ali Bastian (Hollyoaks), Sarah Douglas (Superman), Charlie Bond (GBH) and Steven Berkoff (Clockwork Orange and about 100 things since) are all worth watching.The soundtrack is spectacular: 20 original tracks with an 80s vibe from Sodajerker. That's not a Swedish band, it's a pair of guys from Liverpool whose work deserves to be in something more mainstream that this.The plot actually makes sense, if you can follow it. A stripper manages to kill a werewolf with a silver fountain pen. His mates want revenge. Her colleagues put up a fight. Obviously there's a bit more to it than that.The technical side is quite good, even though the pacing is all wrong. There's blood, nudity, some good lines. Above all it's very British. Reminded me of Shaun of the Dead. Not quite as good overall. But if it had been produced properly it would not have been far off.And that title is brilliant.

Alvin Murillo I thought it started pretty good and the cast was game and it was nice seeing Sarah Douglas and enjoyed the cameos, but something didn't quite click. I think it lost me with many subplots like the stripper living with the werewolf and the other other stripper breaking up with her vampire hunting boyfriend (he was very annoying and unfunny).Nothing really happened for the longest time and then they go and kill the only likable male character. I can forgive bad acting and low production values what I cannot forgive is a boring storyline and annoying characters.It could've benefited from a longer final battle and more deaths, most of the time its nothing but talk talk talk.

mrginlatvia Come on reviewers - lighten up! All of us need a stupid larf once in a blue moon. No need to be so serious. Among the recent wave of so-called "trash-flicks" bombarding the film-watching public, this is a farcically well-done low-budget horror spoof. Tho all the actors are remarkably professional from start to finish - Martin Compston, Sarah Douglas, Adele Silva (a spot-on Sally Field look-alike) & Nick Nevern are especially noteworthy. Their performances gave me the impetus to check out other films they have made, to watch them act. Perhaps the wry British sense of satire is being stretched to the limits, but this reviewer enjoyed (& was constantly astounded by) the sheer audacity of the filmmakers. What nerve – how did this film come to my attention anyway? Oh – right! Watching "other" Martin Compston films. However, "Strippers vs. Werewolves" is a surprisingly timely commentary on contemporary society today. Sad but true – we are all living in a good Bad Movie.
