A year after a supermoon’s light activated a dormant gene, transforming humans into bloodthirsty werewolves and causing nearly a billion deaths, the nightmare resurfaces as the supermoon rises again. Two scientists attempt to stop the mutation but fail, leaving those exposed to the moonlight to once again become feral werewolves. Chaos engulfs the streets as the scientists struggle to reach one of their family homes, now under siege by the savage creatures.

"Werewolves" squanders its potential. Rather than focusing on being the straightforward, dive in feet first, kick ass, action horror film we all wanted, what we get is a hammy, syrupy, woke "drama" that's a genuinely painful watch. Action is in short supply and by and large, not especially well done. Creature effects are pretty uninspiring too, just adding to the sense of hopelessness, surrounding this production. In summary, its okay to make a B action horror but does that mean it has to be poorly scripted and generally pretty crummy? Certainly there have been some excellent B films , occasionally even better than A rated productions but regrettably, "Werewolves" isn't one of them. A hard pass from me.
