After surviving his own encounter with a canine one night, Ambrose comes to believe the assailants are much more than mere dogs. – (Source)

The Good:
I loved the premise of this film…a werewolf preying on the pets and residents of a small town retirement community under the cover of random animal attacks. It was like a cross between SILVER BULLET and BUBBA HO-TEP. And Nick Damici plays crusty and cantankerous better than most actors in his age range.
The tension of watching a blind war vet going to battle against a legion of werewolves also played really well. You never were sure just how successful Ambrose was going to be in his revenge fueled vendetta against the big bad wolves in his retirement community.

The Bad:
I appreciate that this film was made on a low budget and I commend it for using practical and make-up effects but I really wish a bit more time and effort was put into the wolf make-up. At times the werewolves in this looked like the creatures from the movie CRITTERS.

The Ugly:
Watching Stephanie, the girl of Tony Manero’s dancing dreams in SATURDAY NIGHT FEVER, get mauled by a werewolf was a bummer.

Final Verdict: This was a fun movie that never attempted to be more than it was: namely a heartfelt werewolf horror film with a bit of comedy thrown in for good measure. Sure some parts of the film suffered sue to its minimal budget but all in all it was a decent little movie.

Grade: B-
