I like movies that are aware of what they are selling... without [any] greater aspirations than to make people laugh and that's it.

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

When a movie has you begging for it to end not even half way through it's pure crap. We've all seen this movie and this characters millions of times, nothing new in it. Don't waste your time.

A terrific literary drama and character piece that shows how the process of creating art can be seen differently by those doing it and those looking at it from the outside.

At times uncomfortable to sit through but that's kind of the point. This isn't escapism, this is an unflinching look into the lives of two addict lovers. With minimal dialog, the camera lingers closely to catch every bit of acne, crooked and rotting teeth, soulless stare...really great cinematography.

I find the criticism that this movie is sad and depressing odd. Were people expecting a happy movie about two drug addicts living in poverty?Now I didn't feel as strongly for these characters as I did for a character like Richard Gere in Time Out of Mind. But I still felt for these guys. They were both portrayed decently by Gills and McNeil. Cinematography can be interesting at times and at other time it can be jarring. The camera focus being pulled away from the subject on to some background.

The sad, boring lives of a couple of methadone users in a small, Canadian town. Ashley McKenzie's "Werewolf" makes few concessions to its audience; almost nothing happens and McKenzie films it in a flat, dull style in muted, washed-out colours that mirrors the life of its protagonists, a spaced-out Andrew Gillis and a zombie-like, almost silent Bhreagh MacNeil who act as if they're making it up as they go along. This is a bleak and not very likeable picture but at 80 minutes at least it's mercifully short though while you're watching it you might think it will go on forever.

I don't write reviews unless people have been overly harsh or rated 10 Stars to rubbish. Only one reviewer so far...you be the judge. This is not a horror or mutant flick. Arguably, this might be given a different title. Yet, as the story progresses (digresses?) one might think the title was right on the mark. Blaise and Nessa are two drug addicts with nothing going for them. Two addicts living together and trying to quit are similar to a married couple trying to diet together.....it doesn't work. One can only follow the story if you want to really understand the dilemma these two represent. The path they are on is a dead-end the moment you get the idea. We see these people every day, and yet, we never see them. Watch the movie, feel the helplessness, experience the atmosphere.....then maybe you would label it horror. Cookie
