A werewolf loose in Los Angeles changes the lives of three young adults, who, after being mauled by the beast, learn they must kill their attacker if they hope to change their fate to avoid becoming werewolves too.

I liked it. It wasn't the greatest, but I thought it was decent.

I saw this in theatres. I heard it was censored, but I still really liked it. I got the DVD now.

I love the line, "shouldn't you psychically know when you're annoying someone?". Hilarious.

I saw this in theatres. I didn't realize it had been censored. Didn't stop my from enjoying it. I do have the uncensored DVD now, though.

Lol@the random 'gay stuff' in this. I'll probably watch this with Robby sometime soon. I've put off my rewatch for too many years.

It's a pretty fun movie. Great cast and Director, so I did expect greatness, but I'll settle for goodness. The CGI doesn't stand the test of time, but considering the years that have passed since it was released, that's perfectly acceptable. There's a few surprises in the plot that work well, and the conclusion satisfied, though it was a little tidy for my liking. Overall, it's not going to challenge genre fans, but if you're up for some light hearted spookshow stuff, it's worth the time.

Weak, but I did like Bo a lot. And the parking garage scene is good. Heard the original script is vastly superior

Puppy, just because there's no evidence she killed her aunt doesn't make her dating material.

This one was quite the enjoyable and underrated werewolf effort.

What really works for this one is the rather well-done build-up here of the discovery of their powers and condition, affecting each one differently. Allowing her to do better at her job by standing up for herself and tell off her co-workers is a part of this, while the behavior changes are more than enough to give an idea of the change. That comes even further into play when he gets a chance to prove himself a lot more notably with the change in confidence and the change to utilize his enhanced skill-set against his classmates that this one really gets a lot to like about this setup.

That's what allows the action here to get the really enjoyable parts from this as these are quite fun all starting with the initial car crash here. The violence of the impact and then rolling down the hill, the race to free the trapped driver and the attack which gets them involved is quite fun and really has a lot going for it as it sets the stage for the later attacks here. The parking garage encounter is certainly fun with a great gimmick of trying to get to safety with the creature trashing car alarms during the stalking as it gets pretty suspenseful at times, and a later scene at the house trying to escape the now-infected dog makes for some decent times here.

Still, the films is centered around two big action scenes here as the first one is the big confrontation at the nightclub opening which serves as a fine culmination of the different series of action here with the chilling House of Mirrors stalking, the multitude of brawling in the different rooms against both the human and werewolf forms before getting a great conclusion to it all, and finally the ending brawl here which gets them the chance to really let loose and really force along some great parts taking advantage of their powers.

As well with the great practical werewolf look, these here are the positives to make this good enough to overcome the few flaws. These are mostly centered around the film's rather conflicting werewolf here, which is distracting not only with the behavior changes to suit the scenes themselves, going from toying with hated prey to viciously taking out the insignificant victims, and there's a lot to said for the CGI wolf scenes here utilized for scenes that shouldn't be in the first place.

The other issue here is the tameness of the whole affair, really in terms of the kills here which seems like they're far more brutal than what's shown here as this one censors itself way too much. Otherwise, this one was a lot of fun.
Do illiterate people get the full effect of alphabet soup?

Some people are like slinkies: not good for anything, but you can't help but laugh when one falls down the stairs.

I would love to see Craven and Williamson's original version of this movie before the Weinsteins fucked it all up with rewrites and reshoots. I mean, they fired Rick Baker for fuck's sake. Utter bullshit.

What could have been.
