Dark Wolf (2003)

The performances transcend the film's tropes, grounding it in characters that feel more complete than this subgenre often produces.

I am only giving this movie a 1 for the great cast, though I can't imagine what any of them were thinking. This movie was horrible

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.

This movie feels like it was made purely to piss off people who want good shows

For a thriller its really good. The plot is very good and could go into extensive detail but gently glosses over to the main bits. Which can give the viewers something to think about in werewolf lore. The sets are very well put together for a common thriller. The erotic scenes aren't too bad, the dance was kid of mesmerizing. Though the sounds are way over dramatized.The only thing I believe would have made this movie even better would have been the actors. Most appeared to be amateurs with such promise. Despite the faults I really enjoyed this movie. I'm a werewolf fan and this gave a different take on the typical werewolf movie.

I have certainly seen a lot of werewolves, but director Richard Friedman and writer Geoffrey Alan Holliday put together what I consider the best werewolf movie ever.You just knew that it was going to be a winner when the action started in a strip club. In walks biker Kane Hodder (Hatchet, 2001 Maniacs) with the cops on his tail. Amid all the breasts, he manages to get caught, but only for a short time. Locked securely in a steel police van, he transforms into the Hybrid Wolf and escapes, leaving two bodies in his wake - one completely unrecognizable as something human.The dead detective partner (Ryan Alosio) has a rookie with him (Jaime Bergman, Miss January 1999). She finds his job to be totally unbelievable, and becomes the wolf-man's next victim before we get to see her beauty to the fullest.At the same time, the Werewolf Protector, Tippi Hedren of The Birds fame, is also getting killed, but not before she clues the detective in that the waitress (Maxim Hot 100 Samaire Armstrong) is the mate the wolf-man is looking for. So, he takes Josie and becomes her protector.While they are hiding, the action gets hot and heavy at a local photographer's studio. Josie's boyfriend and friend Stacey (Andrea Bogart) arrive and the photographer decides to make up Stacey and Yellow Power Ranger, Sasha Craig as wolf-man models for a shoot on the roof. What we get for the next 10-15 minutes is one of the hottest shoots you can imagine. While we were denied in Greed/Axe, we get to see all of Bogart (she is a natural blond) and Craig as they put on a girl/girl show that steams the joint up. While this is going on Josie's boyfriend is trapped in the alley with the wolf-man. The switching from hot beauty to savage tearing and blood back and forth was an artistic treat.What's left after that? Well the wolf-man still wants a mate and the chase is on into the LAPD headquarters where bodies are mangled and torn throughout as we reach the climax.Great effects as we watch Armstrong do a transformation into a wolf girl and back to human. This was Holliday's first story/screenplay. I wish he would do more.

Dark Wolf (Quick Review) Let's get right to it: This is a repugnant piece of rotting roadkill with cow sh*t on it. It's just an awful movie. It's an urban werewolf movie with some of the worst acting imaginable and a story as weak as any gangly nerd from an 80's high school drama film. What's worse is that poor Kane Hodder was duped into playing the gigantic evil werewolf. Kane f*cking Hodder. Someone's trying to ensure that playing Jason Voorhees is the height of his film career...Anyway, former Playmate Jaime Bergman is also in the movie and she eventually becomes a werewolf, too. It's kind of a crappy cop drama with the world's worst looking werewolf in it. But it does have moments of near-rampant nudity. But that's about all. Want to know more? Okay, the werewolf is generally an ugly-looking black blur zipping around the screen. And when we're privileged enough to actually see a transformation sequence, we're presented with something that resembles a full-motion video from a video game made during the early stages of the Playstation. The first Playstation. The CG animation is really that primitive. Only good for horror hardcore fanatics that want to see small moments of nudity surrounded by rampant visual vomit. 2/10www.ResidentHazard.com
