Strongly by pass, save your time, nerves and mind !Judging by the ratings of the film received some disgustingly incompetent they did. And seeing this ugly picture moments that disfigure writer and director, casting doubt on whether Homo Sapiens they are, I realized that this sh1t can contemplate only a mindless idiot who only mediocrity Give embodies their stupid fantasies based on delusions and dullness (taking into account all the nuances of their script and story) This will not do, well, just in any reasonable and adequate framework... Except that, a feeling that once again filmed for some stupid 15 yo's (max.) pimply teen ... With such success ... it is time screenwriter and director should be sent immediately at a landfill or rubbish dump - - and take shoot such series as "Code Name: Eternity".And the problem is not that is the budget was a little weak ... but in theirs terrible mistakes of the plot story and the episodes, which were based on the absence of any reasonable and adequate logic buyout disfigured everything they filmed. Dear and insufficiently respected writers, directors, this personal request personal to you, please, raise your IQ at first before trying to make movie something like that, and do not so much disgrace yourself by wretchedness of your thought.A.J.Cook? though if I download this horror, her acting, type never would remind me of "Criminal Minds"? Ehmm .. I doubt ... but probably all watched the movie .. just for the sake of Blondie ...and looking at her acting game, I realized ... What a shame it, this A.J.Cook captured in this sh1t-movie ....And all the other actors playing the same disgusting ... and then they just do not believe, and even throw something desirable (each at its discretion what exactly) Sorry for such criticism, but so I just kind of person. When I was by sh1t inveigle in, I react to your ugliness, I do not blame that make such ugly films and in which the actors are eager to disgrace myself even.Still, the best moment of the film, and only for the sake of which he was, IMHO, is worth a look - 1h. 15m. 28-31 seconds. And the only one distinctive from the others coped with their work properly - is the composer.

In France, the Porter family is slaughtered while camping in the woods and only Claire Porter (Stephanie Lemelin) survives seriously wounded. She reports that her husband Henry and her son Peter have been eaten alive by a strong man. The eremite Talan Gwynek (Brian Scott O'Connor) that lives in the woods with his mother is arrested by the police accused of being the killer.The defense attorney Kate Moore (A.J. Cook) is assigned to defend Talan and she comes to the police station with her investigator Eric Sarin (Vik Sahay) and the animal expert Gavin Flemyng (Simon Quarterman) to interview Talan. The unwilling police inspector Klaus Pistor (Sebastian Roché) is sure that Talan is the murderer but has to let Kate and her team work. There is turmoil in the precinct and Gavin is scratched by Talan. Then they visit Talan's mother Mrs. Gwynek (Camelia Maxim) and they learn that Talan has a rare disease. Further, the government wants her lands to dispose nuclear waste and her husband has recently died in car accident. Soon Eric discloses that the death of Mr. Gwynek was suspicious and Pistor was in charge of the investigation. When Kate succeeds in sending Talan to a hospital for examination, she discovers the effects of Talan's disease and is the responsible for the next events.The underrated "Wer" is one of the best werewolf movies I have ever seen. The graphic story is brutal and with magnificent special effects. The screenplay is concise, with good explanation for the situation. Maybe the greatest flaw is the manhunt in a full moon night, but how to convince the authorities that they are hunting a werewolf and not a human being? My vote is seven.Title (Brazil): "Sinistro – A Maldição do Lobisomem" ("Sinister – The Werewolf's Curse")

The Good: This is my favorite film depiction of a werewolf. It's based on a mix of psychological and physiological illness and only uses the mythology as an exaggerated and faulty eye witness account to a heart wrenching disease. There's no wolf like features in the effects here for those of you who are die-hard "it has to resemble a wolf" types. The werewolf's character is a believable recluse who I still felt pity for even by the end of the film, despite him only really having about 3 lines of dialogue. I thought the idea of portraying the film's story line through a law enforcement/ justice system point of view was a fresh take and they did a good job with not allowing the film to feel like another episode of CSI. The Bad: The three characters who are defending the werewolf's case are bumbling college students with jock strap egos put in lawyer garb. They don't fit their professions at all and exist, I feel, as an attention grabber since they are all 3 fashionably attractive and create unnecessary dramatic tension in the film. Though the film had a lot of promise with it's story line(s), I feel that they tried to do too much and the story became jumbled and confused between a tragically comedic romantic 3 way, a serious look at how the judicial system handles criminals with medical disabilities, conspiracy and cover ups in the police department, and a archetypal story as to the identity of man. I feel that if the film producers/writers/directors had picked one of those themes and stuck with it, the film would have been much more cohesive and would have probably been labeled my favorite werewolf film; but: too many ideas, not enough focus; obnoxiously out of place character interactions caused it to go on to a 'I might watch it again but probably wont' list.
