Redundant and unnecessary.
As somebody who had not heard any of this before, it became a curious phenomenon to sit and watch a film and slowly have the realities begin to click into place.
Excellent and certainly provocative... If nothing else, the film is a real conversation starter.
This is one of the best movies I’ve seen in a very long time. You have to go and see this on the big screen.
Red (Felicia Day) brings Nathan (Kavan Smith) home to meet her family. While there he gets bitten by a werewolf and puts a strain on their relationship as her family hunts werewolves. The film had a decent story line, unfortunately the execution was less than stellar. The dialog reeked and the special effects were 1980ish. The hunting scenes were not very powerful. If werewolves are people during the day, they could use guns for killing also...just a thought. The acting didn't come across as strong.In one scene the werewolves have three people in shackles. The girl in the red sweater has on shackles so large around her wrist, she could easily slip her whole hand through them. What's the point? In order to kill a werewolf, its heart must be pierced with silver, although for some werewolves their heart is through their stomach.Worth watching for free on TV, if nothing else is on.Parental Guide: No f-bombs, sex, or nudity.
"Red." Henry said. He had slightly raised his voice because he liked to shake up Kristl. Sometimes he suspected her of nodding off, so he felt at obliged to wake her up. He could do no less."Yes?" Kristl sat up.."And everyone is dead." Henry continued."Quite dead..except for Red herself.""Even her lover gets killed in the end, by herself no less. Poor Red." Henry said."I wonder where that kid comes from that sits on her lap at the end scene." Kristl said, "I wonder many things. Like why make another werewolf movie?""That is simple. It is circle of movies. Vampires, werewolves and zombies. One after the other. We have had a vampire hype, we have zombie hype, we will probably see a werewolf hype.""And so on. Werewolves do get to be a bit boring, but at least they tried to add some different take to the story. I liked it that Red was not a such a tough chick with no feelings and they added this complication in that her lover was also turned into a werewolf against his will.""Yeah, but the low budget made it suffer. I mean when it came down to the combat scenes and showing the werewolves themselves it became quite crappy, especially in those scenes were the werewolves change shape." Henry felt the stubs on his jaw."You had a rough night?" Kristl remarked."Yeah.. stayed up late.""And drank too much.""That too.""So was the movie enjoyable, considering the state you are in?" "Well sort of. It did feel like a rip off from underworld, but a weak one." Henry said."Yeah. And there was nothing remarkable about how it was filmed. I even had the feeling it was a seventies or eighties movie, but it is made in 2010.""There are a few nice scenes, like when she was a little girl see a werewolf attack her mother while Red is hiding up in the attic. Or when she walks into the forest clocked in a red blanket. Or wakes up after having slept in the leaves on the forest floor." Kristl added, "Still the movie falls short in everything. For instance there is a strong reference to Little Red Riding Hood and the movie starts out like a modern version, but this is never referenced or used in any fashion. The romance is wooden and stale. And nothing is done with fact that Red is actually an FBI agent."And except for a few scenes, the whole cinematography technique of this movie is just sloppy. Like back lighting in the woods is a strong green hue. It is not scary, it is just plain odd.""But it isn't too bad a movie." Henry said."Maybe. If they had just a tad more budget, cut down on the cgi and had the actors act better it might have been decent, now it is just a less- than-decent movie.""A time waster really." "Good to know you had your fun yesterday.""Yeah, lame movies are good for recovering from hangovers." Henry nodded his head, then regretted it."And to take a nap." Kristl said, "You miss nothing when you do.""Right."Also at http://meritcoba.wordpress.com with pictures.
The concept was intriguing, but considering it was SyFy(who have been responsible for a lot of terrible movies, bottom-of-the-barrel in some cases) I was also dubious. What a surprise to see that Red: Werewolf Hunter was actually watchable. It is not perfect, and not award-worthy, but alongside The Lost Future, Tin Man and Alice(does Neverland count as SyFy, if so that too) it is one of their more watchable efforts. The dialogue is weak and the acting apart from Stephen McHattie, who's a lot of fun if occasionally too strident, at times felt stiff including from Felicia Day, who seems very detached. The story, sort of a take on Little Red Riding Hood, is mostly interesting, dark and imaginative also with an ending that was surprisingly unpredictable in how shocking and bittersweet it was, but there were also some parts that felt underdeveloped. However, the production values are better than expected, the effects are nothing amazing with some jarring movements but there have been far cheaper ones from SyFy, but I loved the costumes and spot-on sets, the Gothic atmosphere and the photography, which is less haphazard than I thought it would be. The music is haunting and the direction is pretty solid. The characters are okay if not always engaging at first, but you perhaps learn to warm to them by the end. Overall, not great, but watchable especially coming from a channel as notorious as SyFy. 7/10 Bethany Cox
I don't normally post anything, let alone opinions, but this made for TV drek is a sure travesty of good talent. I LOVE Felicia Day, and waited with bated breath for this, along with Kavan Smith, deputy Andy from Eureka, another favorite of mine also gave me high hopes! But this film fell very short, so very short. Bad dialogue, stilted acting and horrible CGI werewolves, made this tough to sit thru. Please have the director taken out and flogged! Felicia Day and the rest of the cast maintained a dull monotone that was (I guess) supposed to set a somber tone, and the entire movie takes place on three sets, repeating set pieces over and over again from the same angle, never varying once!the rest of the cast seemed to shamble along like zombies with hardly any emotion, keep in mind comedic actors have proved time and again that they have remarkable timing. If given a halfway decent script, they should have been able to do something with this. Don't get me started on the stick figure werewolves that we were to be afraid of. Steven McHattie is a veteran bad guy, his character was soooooo bad it hurt to watch. Again i loved the stars, and the premise, but the director really bungled this
