AKA The She-Wolf
B+W from Mexico
A female werewolf. There is also a male werewolf and they are an item.
Available only on YouTube in Spanish, no subtitles. But you know what? The movie is so straightforward in what is going on that you do not need to understand the dialog to follow it. There are also long stretches where there is little or no dialog anyway. If the clock were set back another 20 years and the film done in English, this could almost have been a 'Poverty Row' B horror movie. The acting is not the greatest, which is obvious even beyond the language barrier. Cheap and cheesy creature look, cheap and cheesy gore, cheap and cheesy cinematography (16mm surely and with things like amateurish intercuts of actor faces during fight scenes staged with doubles) and cheap and cheesy FX. Electrical and chemical labs straight out of props department. Secret passages. And if you are going to simulate fog with a smoke generator, try not to make it obvious that it is all coming from a single point. The fight scene with El Lobo is really poorly staged, objects thrown nowhere near the target, heads turning before the blow lands etc.
Yet there was a certain charm and ambition in the movie that kept me watching. The opening sequence is nicely creepy and pulled me into the movie. The plot is OK and has some cute twists. The little girl important to plot development is cute.

Not only does the dog live, he kills one of the werewolves, this being what he was trained for. Sadly his master dies.
