    Storyline

    Edit
    In accordance with the Navajos' legend, a thirteen year-old boy will finish with the curse of the powerful Skinwalkers, a.k.a. werewolves. The half-breed boy Timothy is raised by his human mother Rachel and protected by his Skinwalkers relatives since he was born. His grandmother Nana, his uncle Jonas, his cousin Katherine, her boyfriend Adam and their friend Doak have kept the secret about his bloodline and neither Timothy nor Rachel know the tragic curse. A couple of days before Timothy's thirteenth birthday, a pack of evil Skinwalkers that have tasted blood led by the evil Varek chases the boy while his family protects him. —Claudio Carvalho, Rio de Janeiro, Brazil

    • Quotes

      Varek: Don't make me do something I don't want to do. Join me. We're one and the same.

      Jonas: I'm nothing like you.

      Varek: I am what I was meant to be. You live a lie... we were wrong. I know what you're feeling, trust me.

      Jonas: Trust you? You're killing fellow human beings.

      Varek: I am NOT human. And I will not risk spending the rest of my days as one. Deseased and flawed... we're better than that.

    • Alternate versions
      Outside the USA, the film was released uncut. In the USA, the movie originally received an R rating and was subsequently edited for a PG-13:
      • Uses of the words "shit", "fuck" and "cocksucker" were removed.
      • A man hanging upside-down from a tree is shot by Varek. In the original, he graphically stabs himself in the eye with Grenier's knife before Wendy Crewson's character can shoot him.
      • The scene in the bar is less graphic with a quickly edited montage of the wolves feeding and having sex. In the original, there are clear shots of the wolves feeding/tearing flesh, and having sex with nudity and movement.
      • During the hospital shootout, in the uncut version, Grenier is graphically shot in the head.

    Good Enough To Make Coke Shoot Out of My Nose
    Okay, I saw this movie at the matinée show and no coke didn't shoot out of my nose but it would have had I been drinking coke. I've been waiting for nearly two years to see this thing and let's just say I was a little disappointed.

    No, it's not that bad but I was expecting there to be a lot more violence. I still really liked it for the most part but I guess the R to PG-13 re-cut affected that? I liked the Werewolves and wouldn't mind owning the Stan Winston made one. Though I have no idea where I'd put it? Garage? There are plenty of fight scenes to whet the appetite, though, like I said they aren't that graphic. The hot girls in this are definitely very hot. I have this weird thing for Rhona Mitra, perhaps a tad unhealthy.

    The look of the movie is very good. There's some very cool shots at night and the final scene is pretty damn sweet.

    The plot is fairly straight forward but adequate for a movie of this type. No big surprises, nothing that will change your life, or change the way you look at Werewolves.

    The acting is okay, not great but okay. Believable enough.

    I'd say this movie is worth seeing and you could bring you kids if they are like, ten or above. It's not too scary for them I think.

    Overall, it's like a B-. If you love the monster movie genre this should fill you up for little while.
