Desperate for a break from big city life, Emma heads to her family's cabin deep in the Arkansas hills. As she settles in for some much-needed R&R, she learns that something unspeakable lurks in the surrounding darkness. As the full moon rises, a bloodthirsty werewolf emerges from the shadows, slaughtering everyone in its path and revealing a sinister underworld Emma never knew existed. Thrown into a fight for her life, and her very soul, Emma will need to escape these big bad woods before it's too late.

It is interesting even when nothing much happens, which is for most of its 3-hour running time. Read full review

If you're interested in the topic at hand, you should just watch it and judge yourself because the reviews have gone very biased by people that didn't even watch it and just hate (or love) the creator. I liked it, it was well written, narrated, and directed and it was about a topic that interests me.

Excellent and certainly provocative... If nothing else, the film is a real conversation starter.

We love werewolf movies so we do have a high standard, however going into this we knew this film wasn't going to have the best effects. It gets one star for having actual prosthetics and masks, even if the werewolf mask looks some kind of hybrid wolf/bat thing. And that's about the only good in the whole movie.The cinematography is terrible. The dialog is terrible. The acting is terrible (though the lead actress does the best of the bunch, she needs more directing). The writing/plot is terrible. You'll find yourself saying "huh?" sooo many times. The end made little to no sense. It's full of continuity errors. The audio stinks. Maybe their goal was canon fodder for MST3K? Save yourself some time and watch some other independent films. We just saw "Beyond the Gates" and it was Oscar worthy compared to this junk.

I would really love to know why Bizarre Magazine hire a 12 years old to write film reviews. The plot is wafer thin, there is no coherence, the acting is poor, aside from the lead actress who makes a valiant effort to recover this flop, and the hillbilly maniac who was OK. It started shakily, but passable, I thought it would roll along as a half decent movie at best, and then it descended into the mire. It was boring, lazily filmed, the plot, if there was one, was formulated over a can of Stella, badly made, without being bad enough to make culy status. Useless, it will be 50 pence at the music exchanges within oooh seconds.

Where do I begin. First scene appears to have NOTHING to do with the rest of the story. The main character is a recovering alcoholic and brings it up every f- ing chance she gets. Dad's Friend is creepy.. not just because his acting skills aren't there, or because he just has creepy lines to read... turns out he just is a complete creep... obviously. There's a conversation about what to watch on TV because the main character doesn't have reception stuff set up yet... The wolf looks more like a bat than a wolf. The main character falls for an escaped convict after meeting him twice... or less... AFTER creepy dad's old friend has given her a F-ING GUN to protect herself.. FROM SAID ESCAPED CONVICT!... and her response?.. "wanna come stay at my place?" And then the werewolf shows up and mauls the escaped convict and she finds him, barely alive, seriously wounded,... and her reaction is to take him to her place, which has been repeatedly established to NOT have a phone nor a cell reception... instead of.. I don't know... getting in range and phoning an ambulance? It just... doesn't get better, at any point... The dialog is shitty enough, but it's delivered without any feeling, any reality involved... it's dry.. held back... The whole thing is awkward as all hell.

If you don't want to waste your time, please, watch something else, like "A Werewolf in London" or "The Howling" !Nothing happens in the movie until the first "real" attack (about 49 Mn) and that's the moment where you eventually laugh : the werewolf is a guy in disguise.Main characters sucks as acting (really, really bad) ! Story is weak. There is nothing to save, including the end of the movie.For me, who actually love werewolves movies, I was very disappointed by this title. Even some of "The Howling" series (not included the first one which is the best werewolf movie ever) are better.Cheap, with a story written in the corner of a tablecloth, a lack of SFX, this movie is good for the trash.
