The Howling: Reborn (2011 Video)
2/10
Disappointing

Warning: Spoilers
First of all, I love werewolf movies, but this one was a waste of time. I never saw the original Howling series so i didn't know what to expect.

It has a typical storyline: guy is a werewolf, but doesn't know about it; guy in love with "the captain of the cheer squad"; together they will save the world and as doing so they fall deeply in love. The story moves so fast that you don't really have time to keep up. At some point you're just lost and asking yourself "okay wait....how did we get here?"

The acting, well it isn't that bad (the way the main character looks in this film reminds me of Daniel Radcliffe) but the acting of the mother is very very poor. Spoiler alert: at the end of the movie when the chick takes the mother's heart out and she dies...there is a scene when the camera turns to the mother, her being in human shape and she's "dead" lying naked on the floor you can actually see that 'till the end of the shoot she starts smiling. That really bugged my eyes.

The special effects are terrible, you can't actually see how they turn into werewolves, and the werewolves are hideous. Not to mention that halfway through the movie you can't even see one werewolf.

Overall, this movie will definitely won't make my top 10 werewolf movies....hell...make that top 50.
