WER (2013)


WER (2013)

This movie is about a grisly murder of a father and son while the mother was watching and got mangled herself. They catch a suspect and take him into custody. Defense attorney Kate Moore takes the case but the more we find out the more things unravel. Loaded with conspiracy, distrust and some savage unsettling attacks WER is definitely the most intense werewolf flick in years. 

The good–acting in this is at a premium. For the budget and resources involved we get some nutty top notch effects whenever something isn’t movie fast and the CGI takes over. This film does a great job of being dark and gritty while still giving us an underlying jealousy storyline.

Where the film almost completely fails is in the cinematography, while we get some decent helicopter shots we get some of the worst camera stability I have ever seen on shots where it is just flat out un-excusable. While some of this almost feels like a found footage film it really doesn’t fit that mold in any way that would be considered complete.

I felt this film escalated as it went on and turned into something I didn’t quite expect. True horror fans will be pretty happy with this overall. I wasn’t a huge fan of the final look of the transformed werewolf but it will make fans of the way back machine traditional stuff give it an affirmative nod. 

For me this is a 5 out of 7, but I think a lot of people would go even higher.
