I just saw copies of Horrors of War at Best Buy today...that's a werewolf movie, right? Because it didn't say anything about werewolves, just zombies.
Anyone seen it? Good, bad, boring?

Yeah, it's a werewolf movie. I haven't watched it yet, but it's sitting in my "big pile o' unwatched werewolf movies".

Despite reading some negative reviews I picked this up on ebay recently. Glad I did, cos I actually really enjoyed it. After a very slow start it gradually picks up and the last half hour or so is fantastic. For such a low budget movie it had a lot of originality and imagination, and is very ambitious (maybe too much?).
The werewolves are slightly dissapointing, as they look a bit like the zombies but with a bit more hair and pointy ears, but I guess it makes sense as they were presumably created through the same experiments. The highlight of the movie was seeing a werewolf soldier fighting an undead nazi scientist, cool. Plus there's a little nod to Re-animator, one of my all time faves.
If it ever turns up on tv (zone horror perhaps) I'd say you could do a hell of a lot worse (speaking of which, both Lycanthrope AND Darkwolf are on tonight on ZH, throw in Howling 7 and that's gotta be the unholy trilogy of awful werewolf movies)...

I have since seen Horrors of War, and I thought it was pretty decent. It's easier to understand if you realize that it was originally intended to be an anthology of multiple WWII monster stories, and that it still kind of ends up being that way.
