Ted is working in Nepal, when one night, him and his girlfriend get attacked by a creature which looks like a werewolf. The creature kills his girlfriend and maims Ted, but Ted manages to blow its head off.

 

About 6 months later, he is back in the US, seeking his sister he didn't see in a long time.

 

She insists he moves his trailer by their house, and seeing the police move their headquarters by the lake he was nesting, as a series of gruesome murders take place in the area, he accepts her offer.

 

Her dog doesn't seem to like him, and seems to be very suspicious of him, and onto him.

 

Every night, Ted runs into the woods,and ties himself with handcuffs to a tree,so he won't kill anyone. The dog follows him, and sees him change.

 

Seeing the dog is onto him, Ted provokes it,so it would be taken away.

This seems to be more the dog's movie, as the dog is the one who's on to Ted,and who defends the family.

 

Ted has a conversation about werewolves with his sister's kid about werewolf transformation and why would they only turn on a full moon and not just any moon,daily? That is a good question.

 

The acting was fine, the only ones who seemed off were the actors in the first scenes,in the jungle.

 

The visual effects were good.

 

The movie has beautiful vivid, colors.

 

Viewer discretion is advised, as the movie starts with a scene in which the lead is doing the nasty.

 

The movie is streaming on AMC+ Amazon Channel, Crackle, Fubo Tv, Hoopla, Peacock, Peacock Premium, Screambox, Shudder, Shudder Amazon Channel, Shout!Factory Tv, The Roku Channel, Tubi Tv.
