"Never Cry Werewolf" sort of have a very 'werewolf movie for the entire family' feel to it. Why? Well, because the movie isn't scary, nor is it gory, but it has elements of adventure, fantasy, action and light horror to it. As such, it is fairly suitable for almost all viewers.
The story in "Never Cry Werewolf" is about a mysterious man named Jared (played by Peter Stebbings) who moves into the house next door to siblings Loren (played by Nina Dobrev) and Kyle (played Spencer Van Wyck). Something is not right with the new neighbor and his vicious black dog. And Loren finds out that their new handsome neighbor is in fact a werewolf. And with the help of TV hunting show celebrity Redd Tucker (played by Kevin Sorbo) they set out to hunt down the werewolf and save the neighborhood.
Storywise, then the movie is fun and entertaining and there are elements here that would appeal to a wide group of viewers. And director Brenton Spencer managed to tell a good story without the use of excessive mayhem and carnage.
The effects in the movie were actually quite good, well aside from the transformation of the demonic familiar; which just looked awful. But the werewolf was actually nicely made, and the transformation scenes from man into werewolf (and vice versa) were actually quite good.
"Never Cry Werewolf" would be a good choice for entertaining for the entire family if you are planning a scary night, or for Halloween, for example.
I enjoyed the movie and found it to be fun and exciting. "Never Cry Werewolf" gets a 5 out 10 stars rating.
