How sad is this?

This film is so real. It treats its characters with so much care and sensitivity.

Exactly the movie you think it is, but not the movie you want it to be.

55 minutes of boredom. Might have been mildly amusing as a 15 minute mockumentary, but they went all in with stupid for 55 minutes. Couldn't finish watching. Skipped ahead several times. Native english speakers pretending to be Slovenians with poorly faked stereotypical Dracula accents. Even if you like campy stuff, you'll hate this.

A Werewolf in Slovenia (2015) * 1/2 (out of 4) A large number of werewolf sightings are reported in Slovenia so a group of people travel there with hopes of capturing one on video.A WEREWOLF IN SLOVENIA sells itself as being some sort of documentary or perhaps a mockumentary. I'm not exactly sure what it's trying to be but it's really a disappointment and especially when you get to the very end and you really realize that you've wasted your time. The problem with this movie is that nothing here is all that interesting. We learn that you don't need a silver bullet to kill a werewolf. We then learn that it's not a bite that turns you into a werewolf but some believe it was by wearing the skin of someone who had been hung.The film tries to pass itself off as a documentary and there are interviews with witnesses as well as some video footage, which is said to capture a werewolf. Again, the entire set-up just feels rather cheap and I'd argue that none of it is very believable. A WEREWOLF IN SLOVENIA just isn't interesting enough to be bothered with.

A WEREWOLF IN SLOVENIA is a terrible 'mockumentary' about a film crew visiting Slovenia in order to prove the truth of the werewolf legend. It's mercifully short, but that doesn't stop it from being laughable and dull in equal measure. It's a surprise given that director Philip Gardiner previously helmed an interesting documentary on writer Colin Wilson, STRANGE IS NORMAL, which I really enjoyed watching.I actually watched this because I thought it was a B-movie horror film and I suppose in some respects it is. Certainly there are a few would-be actors in here, putting on phoney accents in a bid to convince us that they're Slovenian. The first half of the production goes through all of the old information about werewolves in folklore and legend, solemnly intoning that "a werewolf can only be killed with a silver bullet", like nobody knows that.The climax seems to be a reaction of the infamous Roger Patterson Bigfoot footage as the crew are lucky enough to spot a werewolf squatting at the edge of the wood (he looks like he's answering a call of nature). Unfortunately this is a guy in a tatty monkey costume with a plant pot for his nose, I kid you not. It has to be the most ridiculous 'reveal' I've ever seen, and cements A WEREWOLF IN SLOVENIA as one of the all-time worst.

This is a werewolf mockumentary. The beginning of this was the best part - the documentary part was really great I did enjoy that part of the film. Now the part where they are trying to pass off the "real werewolf caught on film" was terrible. The werewolf looked like a man in a nearly black monkey suit and the people that caught the werewolf on film were horrible actors - they are not convincing actors. It ends with a guy in a werewolf costume in a gray suit jacket running in the woods so you can barely see him. (Pause the film at that point you'll clearly see the gray suit jacket). IDK if they were trying to parody "Werewolf of London" (1935) or what but he was wearing a gray suit jacket.I don't recommend this film to anyone but if you do decide to watch it just know it's not that grand. It's simply a mockumentary - not really a horror film nor is it really a documentary.3/10
