  1. A ferocious, funny, gory, and astute Canadian horror parable.

    A quietly subversive my-sister-is-turning-into-a-werewolf movie that doesn't wimp out at the end.
  3. Isn't for everyone, but horror fans with strong stomachs will find it a memorable monsterfest that rarely loses its bite.
  4. It makes sly sense to link female hormonal bursts with the lunar cycle of the werewolf, but the movie's final act is the usual matted-fur chase.
