dbborroughs Review of Never Cry Werewolf

Never Cry Werewolf (2008 TV Movie)

Thanks to performances that all seem to be in different movies this doesn't amount to much

[4/10 · 13 August 2008]

Remake of Fright Night of sorts with a werewolf instead of a vampire. Amusing in a direct to TV sort of way but best viewed at 3am on SCIFI when you're too tired to actually take any of this seriously. Its does have some good performances (The two antagonists for example, deserve better) though they some times run counter to other performances, such as Kevin Sorbo, who play to the audience instead of to the material which creates a knowing edge that lessens any scares. Its a shame that everyone couldn't have been on the same page because there are times when the film has flashes of the minor horror masterpiece this could have been. Worth a shot f you can catch it on TV but otherwise take a pass.
