The plot revolves around an alcoholic small town cop who transforms into a werewolf after being cursed.
Today I’m on a movie kick. I just finished commenting on what has to be the worst vampire film I’ve ever had the misfortune of viewing. (Cruise on over to VAMPIRES.COM for my succinct review of VAMPEGEDDON.) So I thought I’d now comment on the most recent werewolf flick I watched—and I’m so glad I did! WOLFCOP is a work of pure genius. It’s so good that it almost makes up for the 90 minutes I lost watching that *ahem* OTHER movie; I can’t even bring myself to type its title again. It makes me want to cry…
ANYway. WOLFCOP. Honestly the only reason I can think of that you WOULDN’T love it is if you went into it expecting something the polar opposite of what it is. You’d think the title alone would tip people off that it isn’t meant to be a serious, gravitas-filled exploration of humanity’s innate animal nature, repressed sexuality or psychological state, but believe it or not there are people out there who watched WOLFCOP and complained that it wasn’t somber enough for them. Let me be upfront, then. WOLFCOP is a Horror COMEDY. It’s meant to be funny. It’s satire. And it’s bloody BRILLIANT. Anybody out there seen it?
