Red: Werewolf Hunter (2010)

Not that bad a movie. You have the descendants of the original Red Riding Hood who are continuing the fight against werewolves. That is what killed her granny and she saw it happen. Granny manages to kill the werewolf with a silver knife and this starts the adventure. Coming home with her fiancée the current Red (the first born daughter in each generation) learns that the current crop of wolfies have broken the truce that has been in place. They were suppose to lock themselves up during the full moon and stay with in certain boundaries. Also there is Gabriel, a werewolf who has learned to change at will. He then teaches others to do the same. So the fiancée gets bit by Gabriel but is undiscovered until the next full moon. So they cage him. The family now goes on a wipe them out hunt. This ends in both the brothers killed and granma too. Red is the last but she manages to kill seemingly every one of the wolfies including Gabriel. This includes her fiancée who has apparently killed granma when he broke out of the cage. Now Red has been bitten I guess but she is shown at the very end of the film reading to her daughter about their heritage. If she was bitten what happened? How did she have a kid? Hoping for a sequel?

Nerd heartthrob Felicia Day stars as Red, a werewolf hunter who finds herself at odds with her werewolf hunting family when her fiancé turns in this ridiculous Syfy film that 'updates' the Little Red Rding Hood story.Cheap, needlessly melodramatic, and pretty much uninteresting all the way around. Even the normally entertaining Day is pretty bad here. Writers Angela Mancuso and Brook Durham would later further subject hapless Syfy viewers with another, somehow more atrocious, fairy tell updating with the awful "Witchslayer Gretl"My Grade: D

I had to post here as there are only 5 reviews and one said this movie stunk. It is a stinker alright, dull, boring and just plain bad. I turned it off after about 20 - 30 mins.Firstly, and this may not be to your liking BUT - if you are going to pretend that your are out patrolling after the baddies(a.k.a military style), at least put in some sort of effort. Spend a couple of dollars on an ex-military person to show you how it's done. Trying to fake it just looks plain awful.Also, if you are going to give field signals (like telling your team to do something with hand signals), again, get some advice. I was confused as to what they were doing. Surely there is someone in the US to help with this. This is not being pedantic, I just couldn't tell what they were doing.You don't have to have been in the military to understand what I'm saying. When you are going after someone (say the Vampire or the Werewolf), you don't stand out in the open waiting to get attacked. You keep as best hidden as you can. This is basic stuff - common sense.The creatures in this movie were pretty poor. I tried to like them but they were such bad CGI. Try watching any of the resident evil movies.

I usually don't watch SiFi, but I will in the future. And I really would love to see a sequel. A great story and that head werewolf- Gabriel- put on a superb performance. Really thought the special effects were better than the usual MOW as well. Can't say enough good about it all round for its genre. The lead actress was a great blend of interesting, feminine woman and tough as nails on the flip side. The two brothers didn't look much a like but were otherwise casted well. I am looking at IMDb and Chesler/ Perlmutter has a few more that will be coming out soon, Blood of Pegasus (3-2011), Sata Suit (12-2-10) and The town that Christmas Forgot (11-25-10) are all on my watch to watch list. Anxious to see more quality MOW in my future.
