3.0 out of 5 stars Cheap Thrills for a Cheap Price, October 2, 2003

By	Lunar Strain "Thrash, don't mind if I do" (United States) - See all my reviews

Before I bought this DVD featuring both Howling V & VI, I had only seen the first three Howling films. I loved the first one, hated the second one, and thought the third one was weirder than hell. I saw this DVD for sale for real cheap so I picked it up. I wasn't expecting much since Howling II & III weren't very good (I still haven't seen IV), and I was actually surprised by Howling V. Of course its lower budget and it has its downfalls, but I really enjoyed it. I really liked the the idea of people being trapped inside a castle because of a ragging blizzard only to be terrorized by a werewolf. I only wished they showed the werewolf a little more, because of the few shots it had, it looked pretty cool. Howling V, since it was made in Europe, has a real unique atmosphere to it. Howling VI on the other hand, I didn't like so well. Even compared to the other sequels, this one fells a lot cheaper made. The idea is intersting, but it just plods along. The werewolf in this one looks more like big foot than a lycanthrope. Already I have watched Howling V three times and VI only once. What I want to know is why didn't Artisan throw Howling IV on this DVD as well? I mean they fit V & VI onto one side of the DVD so they could have put IV on the other? Artisan does own the rights to Howling IV, so this makes me wonder if they are ever goint to release it. Overall this disc was worth the ten bucks I spent. I really like when movie companies put two movies on a disc, and Artisan is doing it a lot latly. I only wish that Artisan would remaster these movies. MGM does, why not Artisan. The movies look a little too grainy.

4.0 out of 5 stars Howling V The Rebirth, November 1, 2003

By	Jamie X-Treme (Crossett, AR United States) - See all my reviews

I don't care what anybody else says, Howling V: The Rebirth is an awesome horror movie. When I was a kid, my mom allowed me to rent Howling V: The Rebirth and watch it. For years it gave me terrible nightmares. I had a wild imagination back then and it often got the better of me whenever I watched certain certain things. A group of heirs are invited to a Hungarian castle for a secret werewolf bust. The guests realize to their horror that they are being hunted down by evil. They all have the same birth mark. One of them is a werewolf, and it can only be destroyed by one of its own, someone who has the mark. Howling VI: The Freaks is a pretty cool horror film too. But I like Howling V better. I am glad this movie is finally on DVD.

4.0 out of 5 stars Get it for the Rebirth, October 29, 2004

By	Ironman "ironman6662" (Carmel, IN USA) - See all my reviews

Howling 5 *****

Howling 5 the Rebirth is by far the best of the Howling sequels (despite having nothing to do with the rest of the franchise). The story starts off simple enough, a group of strangers are brought together a mysteriouse castle for some unknown reason. They wind up being snowed in and as a result are picked off one by one by a werewolf. What makes it so great is that you never know who it is until the end where paranoi runs into overtime.

Howling 6 ***

Howling 6 The Freaks is what is to be expected out of a B level title. A man who is cursed with the mark of a werewolf stumbles into a traveling freakshow. He is eventually lured in and placed as one of the attractions. Eventually he discovers that the owner is a Vampire and the two duke it out. The plot is minor and realy the effects were not that great, especially on the Vampire (gives ugly a new meaning).

Overall get this DVD for # 5 and think of #6 as an unwanted bonus feature (like a Hilary Duff Music Video).
