I don't understand what it is, but it seems like Hollywood can't do a good werewolf movie anymore. And with todays special effects and all the talented writers out their I don't know why. The last good one was about 3yrs. ago called "An American Werewolf in Paris" that had great effects and a good story. Since then their has been 1 called "Werewolf" and the best thing I can say about that is that it made for a great MST-3000 episode. One of the funniest of that great show. And now we get this. I can't even begin to say how dumb it was. Just trust me,if you are a fan of werewolf movies don't bother with this,go rent "An American Werewolf in London" or "An American Werewolf in Paris" or "Bad Moon." That was a good one too, but avoid this at all costs.

I would like to add my comments to those that disliked "Lycanthrope". If this is the movie I think it is, it was made here in my town, shown once and then shipped overseas. I reallywould like to get a hold of copy of this movie. If anyone knows where I can get a copy, please lest me know, my handle is frogsitter and I get nessages sometimes through Amazon. I will check back here occasionally. Please!!!!!!! I really think this is a good movie for the low buget they had to make it with and the cast is great.

I'm Bob Cook, yes, the writer & director of the film "Lycanthrope." Although it's flattering to be mentioned with such famous werewolf movies as "American Werewolf in London" and it's sequel "American Werewolf" in Paris" I didn't have the same millions of dollars to make "Lycanthrope." This project was made for under $100,000.00. Film students, and actual horror film fans will enjoy watching the problems a 'low budget' feature must endure when trying to compete with studios that spend twenty-five million plus. Even "Full Moon" considered by most as a decent 'low budget' werewolf flick had almost ten million to complete the project. If you're a real horror fan "Lycanthrope" will entertain you to the point where you'll wish we had more money.

Thank you,
Bob Cook
