TheManInOil Never mind how bad this movie is. I spent most of it trying to figure out where and when it's supposed to be set. The time is easier - seems to be late 1800s, with anachronistic elements. But as to where? No idea. The accents and place names, etc. seem to be completely all over the place. Given the diversity one might think it was the US but it's clearly meant to be someplace European (even though the wealthy locals speak with distinct American accents). Baffling movie.

GL84 After a series of strange attacks, a small village finds that they've been beset by a group of vicious werewolves intent on killing everyone in the village and must rely on a group of skilled hunters to stop them before the entire village is killed.This here was quite the fun and enjoyable werewolf effort. This one really gets quite fun with the old-school tone and feel here with the Gothic atmosphere running throughout this one making for a rather enjoyable and truly fun style throughout this. Setting everything around the village is a great part by allowing for the old-time buildings and setting to get utilized effectively which manages to mesh quite well with the forest setting so commonly featured here, and along with the rolling fog banks and the howls out in the distance really makes this one truly chilling throughout here. Even more impressive is the fine action here which is quite a blast to get this kind of fun throughout here, as the stellar opening attack on the family in the cottage is quite exciting getting along, Other big scenes here include the strong ambush of the poachers being attacked while out in the forest and the trap being set at the abandoned mission where the werewolf finally gets the encounter with the hunters as they attempt to trap him inside in a flurry of fine action. It makes for a strong set-up into the finale where there's a ton of action taking this with the transformation in front of the crowd and then chasing the two into the underground catacombs which is a fine and incredibly fun brawl where both sides get in plenty of control throughout and the big resolution is a nice addition ending this on a high-note. While some of the small attacks throughout here give off some additional gore along with the other great encounters also adding some fun, there's enough here to make for some good times. About the only real downside to this one comes from the ridiculous and hardly believable CGI throughout here for the creature, which really ruins a lot of the scenes here with this one by taking the viewer out of the scene with the obvious fakeness of the main creature. Along with some minor stumbling here with the nonsensical amount of time spent showing the residents arguing with each other over the werewolf's identity, there's a lot more to like here to hold off the flaws.Rated R: Graphic Violence and Language.

seoirseuiduic Werewolf: The Beast Among UsWerewolf: The Beast Among Us is a 2012 action werewolf horror movie directed by Louis Morneau. The movie stars Nia Peeples, Steven Bauer, and Guy Wilson. While I usually like horror movies and movies with vampires and werewolves this one was so badly made I got bored very quickly. The special effects are not bad but the acting and the storyline are atrocious. After 15 minutes it is clear who the werewolf is and how the rest of the movie will go. The actors don't really convince me either. It is supposed to be set in 19th century Transylvania but the clothing and beliefs are all wrong for the region and much closer to Bram Stoker's Dracula. I managed to watch the movie till the end but won't buy the movie for my collection. I give it 3 stars for the visual spectacles even though it is sometimes a bit too dark and fuzzy. If you want to watch a predictable werewolf movie with some nice CGI and other fancy special effects stuff you'll like it. As a werewolf movie fanatic I found it quite dull.

loomis78-815-989034 A band of werewolf hunters are moving along the countryside looking for work. One ravaged village hires them to rid them of a terrible super beast that has the ability to kill under any moon. A local man named Daniel (Wilson) convinces the hunters that he is valuable and joins them. A somewhat silly but entertaining werewolf film from Universal Studios no less has nothing to do with the remake of "The Wolfman" but sets itself up like a comic book movie. The hunters are the heroes the werewolves the villain's. There are way too many subplots that are introduced which lead to some predictable twists at the end which are disappointing. By the midpoint of the movie you will be able to guess which character is the super werewolf. To his credit, Director Louis Morneau knows what he has on his hands, which is a super gory monster movie and he makes it entertaining and gory. Body parts and pieces of corpses are literally spread all around this village and the movie has blood spurting everywhere. Gore fans will enjoy and all though some of the digital effects are cheesy and poor looking the action and gore flies throughout. The solid cast helps quite a bit. If you are in the mood for a gory fast paced werewolf film that doesn't take itself very seriously this could be for you.
