One of the best werewolf movies.

I saw this movie back in 2009 and saw it again today (2014). I have seen a few more werewolf movies in between and still, this movie is the only werewolf movie which I have ever enjoyed other than Underworld series.

for me, it's (in no particular order)...

American Werewolf in London
the Howling
Dog Soldiers
Silver Bullet
Bad Moon

I have to see American Werewolf in London. It has been on my 'must watch' list for a long time.

Just watched and have to agree. The perfect combination of violence, gore, jumps & humor. American Werewolf in London is my fave, but this is up there with The Howling, but much better acting.

Have to say, while you sort of knew all along, the way they revealed the "twist" was well done.

I agree, it's a good one. I think it's my favorite really, over AWiL. Not to say that one wasn't good.The Howling I wasn't crazy about. it just bored me really.

While I enjoy watching if I am bored, the worst I have seen is Eyes of a Werewolf. I think if anyone watched it, they'd agree. It had potential, and could have been great with better budgeting. I assume low budget was the reason for all the flaws, and if not, and that mess was intentionally put together.....whew.

I have seen the review of Eyes of a Werewolf. Yeah, it's horrible.

But the actress had nice twin cubs of her own..

I guess, but since I am not attracted to women, that wasn't a saving grace.

:D

I wonder if there are more Indie movies like that.

This, An American Werewolf In London and Wolf Cop are the only three werewolf films I love. Unless you count Teen Wolf, lol.

See 'Ginger Snaps' and 'Werewolf Of London'

Yeah Dog Soldiers is great ! definitely check out American Werewolf In London, The Howling & Ginger Snaps.

Dog Soldiers is one of my fav werewolf flicks. I like it because the werewolves actually look scary and creepy. Some of these newer ones just look like crap with the cgi. Dog Soldiers had some damn good makeup effects too.

One of those films you sit down to watch for a few minutes and then realize you saw the whole film.

Like Starship Troopers. Just keeps on going and going...

I agree it's the best. My favorite and there are so many good ones out there. I loved Ginger Snaps and Back. But this one is hands down my favorite.
