Its silly. Its meant to be silly.
The special effects are awful. They are meant to be awful.
Just suspend disbelief for 2 hours and buckle in.
Brilliant, funny yet scary film following a special ops team that get stuck in the Scottish highlands and soon find themselves being hunted by werewolves.
Sean Pertwee is outstanding in this film.

This looked to be a sure winner. With a young popular cast, directed by Wes Craven and about werewolves what more could you want. Well quite a bit, it has some good moments but overall the plot is very weak and the SFX not as great as you would expect. It ends up being predictable and a bit camp.

Love the underworld movies like this one than the 4th film. Kate Beckinsale is back as selene trying to stay out of the continuing war between vamps and werewolves. The films are becoming kinda predictable in there plots but that doesn't bother in least I will still watch them as long as they want to make them

Feb 25, 2019
Prince of Wolves is the start of a thrilling, gripping series. As the start of the three girls adventure into the supernatural world, there is always something happening, be it devastating or hilarious.
It's definitely a series that I would love to see as films or a TV series.
These book are a definite must read for all lovers of Werewolves and the Supernatural.

Dean (6921 KP) rated Blood and Chocolate (2007) in Movies
Jul 21, 2018 (Updated Nov 7, 2018)
One of those films where the trailer makes it look so much better than it is. I was hoping for something close to Underworld as it was done by the same producers. However it is more a tale of romance. They are not really werewolves either but humans who turn into wolves....not something in between. Ok for a watch but could have been so much better.

This series is so action packed at times, it's like a movie or tv show.
I figured that Sara and Nikolai would be something like that--I've read too many books about werewolves and vampires and the like to not figure it out.
I could happily stay up and read the third book in the series right now but I don't currently have it.

Set in a school in a house that was donated by the characters from The Originals. Witches, vampires and werewolves are the main characters but new species are appearing like dragons and a necromancer!! Dealing with supernatural mysteries and normal teenage antics.

Disclaimer: I received an e-copy from the author in exchange for an honest review.
At the start, we meet Ciarra, the tribal healer, doing her best in a bad situation by performing a spell on tribesmen that will turn them into werewolves. Unfortunately, there's no way to turn them back, as her spirit guides tell her. But at that moment, a mysterious man, Aison, comes out of the forest and grabs Ciarra, taking her to a cave deep in the woods, where his brethren, the Strigoi, those beings the werewolves were created to kill, are waiting. Aison and the others force Ciarra to alter the spell, forever cursing all future members of her tribe to become weres at 26 years old, as they have kidnapped the pregnant leader's wife, Kimi, as leverage. Ciarra is attacked by the other Strigoi, and Aison turns her, but not before Kimi gives birth and dies. Ciarra saves the baby and gives her to two Fae, enslaved by the Strigoi, to protect in their world until the time is right for her to meet her tribal mate and help bring down the original Strigoi. Years later, we meet Lea, the "wingless Fae" from the prophecy, and her story continues from there.
I really enjoyed this book, as there were lots of supernatural elements that I found really interesting. There are Strigoi, werewolves, Fae, tribal curses, spirit guides, etc., and it was really fun to read. However, I feel it would've been better had it been longer, as there were several instances I thought were rushed, such as the battle in the woods between the werewolves and Strigoi. I think it would've made a great novel, including a little more depth to the battle, the tribe's way of life and coping with the curse, etc. However, I still liked it a lot, and I look forward to more.

Broken Beasts ( Xoe Meyers book 3)
By Sara C. Roethle
Xoe had hoped that after the events of the last few months, things would finally slow down. No such luck. The werewolves are out for blood, and so are the vampires apparently. Let's not even get started on the problems her own friends are causing. Regardless of the danger, Xoe and her rag-tag entourage are in Moab, facing the werewolf coalition. Their final ruling will change Xoe's fate, and the fate of her friends forever.
Here's hoping that's a good thing. I got the first 3 books in a set and I have to say I’ve really enjoyed them! They are the new Scooby gang a mismatch of supernatural friends! This one was a bit of a slow burner but still kept the story going! I’m looking forward to more demon action as you don’t get it as much as the usual vampire and werewolves! A good start to a decent series!
