Its daft humour, which did have me laughing along. Quite a few nods to AWIL, had me looking in the background for those nuggets. The torn jackets hanging on the pub door etc.
I'll happily have a pint of Howling Wolf. Cheers to werewolf films, may there be many more.

I wish this film had just a little more money for the Werewolf effects ......it suffers a lot when seen. But that's the only real criticism...... it's not about Oscar winning FX it's about fun.
Cheap British horror comedy with a great script and cast (familiar faces from UK soaps). The banter between the three extras from the pub (The Severed Arms) was really funny and I found myself laughing out loud. A pleasant surprise.

It's about what you'd expect. It's a good laugh, it's well acted and the plot is really good. It's not as funny as I hoped maybe but I did laugh out loud a few times and I really enjoyed the film. Well worth the watch for sure. In the vein of Shaun Of The Dead!
It's a (very) low budget British comedy that happens to include a werewolf. The title, apparently a ham-fisted allusion to The Howling, is typical of this movie's level of sophistication. It's not scary and it's not trying to be - which is fine: there are a lot of excellent comedies that utilize horror conventions. The problem is that this one simply isn't funny. You get the sense they were going for talky, dry British humor and deadpan snark, but it all comes across as stale and forced.
It has the same basic premise as 2022's Wolf Manor (or Scream of the Wolf depending on where you're watching) which, by no means excellent, is a vast improvement over this 2018 effort.

An English village endures the filming of a Zombie film on its doorstep. As if that were not enough, locals are found dead, their bodies torn apart.
This is a low budget horror comedy, and glories in it. Silly, funny, with some good performances and some reasonable jokes - some work better than others, which is fair enough - and it actually makes sense.
Director and writer Pablo Raybould isn't interested in anything too sophisticated, preferring rather to dish out a few giggles during the 83 minute run-time. My score is 6 out of 10.

Albert Moses also starred in the much popular 1977 TV series "Mind Your Language", as Ranjeet Singh.
- GoofsShortly after the start of the movie, Mike enters the bar, complaining about how bad the rain is outside. His black leather jacket is soaked, yet his hair is dry and neatly combed. If he'd been walking in the rain for as long as it's shown, his hair should be wet.
