Scarecrow-88 Elizabeth Bathory(Michelle Bauer, REALLY getting into the role)agrees to sacrifice female victims..and, most importantly, bathe in their blood..to her Lord Lucifer in exchange for eternal beauty and youth. A broke, yet brimming with charm, final descendant of the cursed Daninsky line, Richard(Olen Ray alum, Jay Richardson)asks for the face, Melanie(Danielle Petty)and producer Tony(Leland Jay)of the low-rent television program, Current Mysteries, to host a show at his family's European home of the infamous late Waldemar Daninsky(Paul Naschy, merely in it for a little bit to get paid, but one can see he at least cares). Waldemar was on the verge of losing his beloved Eleanor(Stephanie Bentley)to the black plague when Ebath posed an offer he doesn't refuse..in exchange for Eleanor's life, he sells his soul to Lucifer's angel, yet in return is cursed with lycanthropy. It is written he attacked, and killed, Eleanor when under the full moon curse. Imprisoned and killed with a silver cross embedded in his heart, Ebath will hypnotically force Richard to release Waldemar from his slumber, removing the large dagger as the werewolf emerges from his crypt to kill again. During the day we see a weary Waldemar looking on in sadness from the bushes and over cornered walls of his estate and the crew of Current Mysteries remain around the manor conducting their affairs. What Richard was seeking is supposed treasure, but this was merely a ruse by Ebath for unleashing Waldemar once again as anyone who has the misfortune of standing in the path of the werewolf will be torn into. Meanwhile, aging skin will force Ebath to chose another victim of the Current Mysteries crew for their blood.Well, to be honest, this is a sex movie without the special ingredient one watches it for. In actuality the film is smut masquerading as a horror film..perhaps, that's why the sex scenes are removed. The distributer perhaps wanted this film to be marketed as a legitimate werewolf horror flick..to it's credit there is some werewolf carnage. Some torn throats as flesh is ripped away as the werewolf munches away quite rabidly. Bauer really just let's it hang out as E Bathory just bathing in the red stuff and slurping away. In the version I watched, there's ample nudity(mostly breasts)and the lesbian sequences consist of groping and kissing. The cast is equipped with porn stars so you ought to know where this film's head is mostly at..but, without the sex, the film really only consists of bad actors and uninspired dialogue. I rented it as a Paul Naschy/werewolf completest, but one shouldn't go into this thing expecting a massive amount of thrills. At least if the sex had remained, a certain crowd could've had that aspect for pleasure. As is, the film is cheaply made trying to have us believe the setting is in Europe with poor effects. For Fred Olen Ray fans only. Danielle Petty is quite striking as the raven-haired Melanie..both in and out of clothes.

Hypnotica ... and that question is... DOES *NO ONE* MAKE GOOD WEREWOLF MOVIES ANYMORE?! This movie features an incredibly untalented cast, very cheesy and outdated special effects and just plain bad writing.First problem, too much sex and nudity. Now some, especially men, might argue with that opinion, but that fact is I wanted to see a movie about werewolves. If I'd wanted to see that many breasts exposed, I could have just rented a porno. Seriously, this was one step above a snuff film. (If you don't know what that is, I am *not* going to be the one to explain it.) Now, the special effects. I get that this was very low budget production, and so was not expecting anything state-of-the-art. That would have been dumb. But I have literally seen better special effects made by teenagers on their home computers. It was sad.Most of the actors, particularly the women, were more likely cast for their willingness to get naked and get it on with the other female cast members than any acting skills they might possess. (Which are very few.) Now, if the script had at least been well written, some of the other stuff could have been forgiven. This was not the case. And the real hell of it is that they started out with a fairly good plot line. Bringing Elizabeth Bathory into the mix, for example, was a good idea and one that I have not often seen used. The reincarnation factor wasn't exactly original, but could have worked out quite well. There is also a tragic back story for the werewolf, in which he basically trades his humanity to Bathory in exchange for saving his beloved wife from the plague. Ironically, once his wife begins to heal, he ends up killing her while in werewolf form. The writer/director was, unfortunately, apparently just not talented enough to build on that plot very well. Maybe he was too distracted by all the pointless lesbian sex he just had to put in.In all, this movie doesn't rank up in the category of "Worth at least one watch." Heck, it doesn't even rank high enough to be put in the "So bad, it's funny" category. This movie is part of the bottom dwelling "There ain't nothing funny about a movie *this* bad" category, where it is kept company by the likes of "El Chpacabra" and "Miner's Massacre." Now, I admit, no one made me watch this, er, film. (And I use the term "film" very loosely.) That's not to say that I'm not still a bit disgruntled by the fact that I shelled out about four bucks to rent this thing. But I admit that was my own folly. Having made that horrible mistake, I now warn any who might be reading this not to make the same mistake. To say that this... film is a waste of both time and money would be an understatement. If you're like me and want to see a good werewolf movie, go with a classic, like "The Wolfman" and the sequels starring Lon Chaney Jr. (At least they have the excuse of the time period for the special effects and they're well written enough.) If you want something a bit more modern, I'm sorry to say that you're limited to the 80's and early 90's. To my knowledge there have been no good werewolf movies made since then. Oh, there have been a few good ones that feature werewolves, but none exclusively about werewolves.I still have hope that someday, someone out there in Hollywood will make a worthy werewolf film once more, but I'm not holding my breath.

wolfbeast I had a suspicion that this was not going to be a blockbuster movie, so I prepared to watch at least a B-movie as entertainment. And sure enough, the special effects were indeed laughably bad, so much so even that I double-checked to make sure this was indeed produced in this millennium, and not some 20 years before it!To sum it up, the movie is probably 50% badly acted soft-porn with the expected music scores you'd find in those movies, with lots of breasts showing, even before the title of the movie there is a long scene of woman to woman action. The other 50% is a very feeble attempt to make all of it fit in some kind of story about a werewolf, who looks like the wolf-man from the early half of the 20th century. The transformation scene cracked me up with how bad it was, as it was something anyone with a PC in their home could have made without knowing the first bit about video editing or CGI.All in all, awful, just awful. Unless of course you don't care about the story of a movie and just want to see a lot of breasts.

joshkclark Tomb Of The Werewolf was more like a college porno film, within the first ten minute there is already a woman feeling up another girl, now that's not the bad part. The bad part was, is that the movie was terribly done, bad actors, not a bad plot but the way they made Paul Naschy become a werewolf was ridiculous. I mean come on, a silver cross can only kill the werewolf? He looked more like a guy who hadn't shaved in a while much less than a werewolf. But if you are a person who likes movies with a terrible plot, horrific actors, awful special effects and it has the makings of a bad college porn flick, then you will certainly love Tomb Of The Werewolf.
