this really wasn't that bad of a movie but i can't get over the fact that the werewolves look like overgrown rabbits with rabies
This wasn't too bad.
Enjoyed the story.
Liked the wolf designs on the stunt men.
Nice music.

This is a fucking atrocity in the eyes of god and man. But I laughed so hard. Between the awful performances, the worlds cheapest werewolf costumes and the inability to deliver on any promise it makes when it comes to carnage because they simply can't pull it off I was in hysterics for the entire film's run time. Because this is so cheaply and ineptly made every fight sequence looks like a bunch of nerds LARPing on a saturday morning. But the real piss de résistance of this movie is the villain who gives one of the most hilariously campy and terrible performances ever committed to screen, vamping it up in cheap fake vampire teeth and cheap wig. By all rights this deserves no stars, but I was laughing so hard tears and drool came out so that has to count for something.
Felt like a bit of wasted potential here, but for a low budget feature, it was ok.

Good evening and welcome fellow Children of Chaos.
Damn and I normally really like Charlie Steeds' work. They tend to have this strange mix of serious, dark, and goofy. But this one is all dark.
Honestly I am just over this Game of Thrones style mud farmer fantasy. I want wizards and paladins, not slime and boredom.
GAME OF THRONES ISN'T EVEN THAT GOOD Y'ALL! And George R.R. Martin is a fucking creep. Ignore he has to write about 15 year olds having sex. The dude plays GURPS. GURPS! Can you believe that?
A young farm hand's village is attack by werewolves so he joins a group of asshole knights and learns to be a hero himself to make his…
The werewolves wear furry onesies and paw their prey to death. They could be in the asylum in High Anxiety with the guy who thinks he's a cocker spaniel.
But Werewolf Castle isn't comedy. It's a fantasy-quest story set in medieval England. A lot of knights, a lot of swords, a lot of wolfy violence. The movie is uneven and it was obviously not favored with a great budget, but it's fairly entertaining.
Werewolf Castle has that super-serious quality in which every line of dialogue sounds Very Important and every battle is a step on the hero's journey. It works pretty well, though: The movie creates an epic-legend tone and delivers some solid faceoffs with the furries.
There's a lot…
As much as I hate to say it, I really wish this movie had a bigger budget. There's a really fun, and hopefully bloody, hopefully well choreographed, movie in this idea but a lot of the things that would've excited me left me feeling disappointed. That being said, they swung for the fences with the locations and yeah, the werewolves are people in costumes but I actually liked the look of them. There's enough here to draw me in and get me semi-invested, but damn it could've been a fun schlocky horror movie.
Like a group of LARPing theater nerds performing a weekend showing of a werewolf version of The Lord of The Rings.
That description sounds a lot better than the movie actually is, but there’s swords and the werewolf costumes are pretty cool.
“There’s overreacting and then there’s the blood hurricane that is Hal Skullsplitter“
I would love to have a bit part in a Charlie Steeds film. They’re definitely not for everyone but what is accomplished on a shoestring budget is to be applauded as is the heavy use of practical effects.
Some of the locations in this one were great to look at. I particularly liked the King’s castle that was clearly 2 separate locations for filming. One looked European and either fairly modern or else heavily restored and the other was clearly a ruin in England. Zero fucks given to explain that the castle had no roof and was a modern visitor attraction with metal bannisters and guardrails - this…
I have a goal to watch every Werewolf movie ever made and came across this one last night. I'll spare you from wasting your time. This was complete and utter garbage! Horrendous story/plot! Horrendous Dollar Store Werewolf costumes and make up! Horrendous script! Horrendous characters and acting! So, in a nutshell, this was FUCKING HORRENDOUS!
Game of Werewolves
Like all modern fantasy this takes big notes from Game of Thrones for a tale of a farm boy getting revenge on werewolves with a bunch of guys in armor. It looks good, they really went all out getting armor and weapons that look big budget and shooting in one of those historical reenactment villages. The werewolves are guys in suits with the fancy Spencer’s werewolf masks but I vastly prefer that to CGI or god forbid AI slop werewolves. You aren’t getting Stan Winston down there for your direct to Tubi werewolf movie so they got the best werewolves they could. It looks the part but it doesn’t have the energy. I think the shadow of…
