Wolves Against the World Ratings & Reviews

My quick rating - 3.2/10. So, where should I begin with Wolves Against The World? The title promises some sort of epic werewolf showdown, but alas, the only thing howling here is my confusion. This film, directed by Quinn Armstrong (who seems hell-bent on delivering profound statements instead of horror flicks), gives us two former neo-Nazi metal band members reuniting at the site of their bandmate's suicide. One wallows in grievances, and the other tries to redeem his past. The result? It's a mess of occult nonsense that’s more like Wolves Against Logic. The film’s pacing feels like it was designed by someone who thought a slow build-up to nowhere was the pinnacle of suspense. Seriously, don’t expect any thrills or scares. You’re getting roughly 90 minutes of two dudes brooding, and that’s about it. It’s more like a therapy session for old Nazis than a horror film. Think An American Werewolf in London without the werewolves, the humor, the gore, the creativity, you know, anything interesting. As for the acting? It’s decent enough, I guess, though it's hard to tell if the performances are supposed to reflect their inner torment or if they just forgot to read their lines before filming. Michael Kunicki, as Louis, is all about trying to leave his neo-Nazi days behind, but it's unclear if he’s doing that for redemption or just because he realized that being a racist in a metal band is so 2004. Armstrong playing Anders gets a shot at being bald but also contributes a decent performance as the one holding onto his Viking/Nazi glory. Is this a redemption story, or is it just a pro-Nazi propaganda flick? I’m not sure, perhaps I’m missing the deeper meaning here, but it could also just be a mess. And about those occasional practical effects. The movie teases us with werewolf vibes early on, giving you just enough hope to think, “Hey, this might turn into something cool!” But nope, that’s about as far as it goes before we’re back to existential conversations about the soul, the past, and whether or not we can ever truly escape our roots (Spoiler alert: you can’t, especially when the movie drags like this). Speaking of which, the trilogy (yes, this is part of a trilogy, though none of the films seem to share anything except a vague sense of confusion and a cabin in the woods) doesn’t bother connecting any dots. Honestly, you could watch these in any order or not at all and still have no idea what’s going on. So, to wrap up—if you’re looking for a werewolf movie, keep looking. If you want an occult drama with two dudes battling their demons (literal and metaphorical) in a cabin, then congrats, you’re in the right place. But for the rest of us, Wolves Against The World is more of a slow-motion trainwreck than a horror flick.
