Harry R Mar 5, 2019 Is it a good film? No. But it is what it aims to be. It's like these critics are expecting a horror-comedy to be the next Exorcist. It's a teen drama and unapologetically cheesy monster movie intentionally made in the 80s style of cheap plot and guilty thrills. It's not supposed to be an edge-of-your-seat blockbuster. It's designed to sell popcorn to horny teens who only go to the theater to make out. It's fun. See more

Hermione P Oct 20, 2018 I don't understand all of the hate, but I found this film to be pretty good.

Jun 29, 2018 Mediocre take on the werewolf genre that lives from its two charismatic protagonists.

George R Jan 14, 2018 What...16%!?!? Oh Cmon...this was obviously a satire on the werewolf genre...its meant to be silly and ridiculous and loads of fun...BRAVO to Wes Craven for having the balls to do something not so over-the-top Horror....Cursed has an adorable Buffy The Vampire feel and I absolutely loved it...it's like this made for TV kind of movie which we need every once in a while...okay, some of the CGI was really God Awful but in context of the film's tone, cheesy CGI totally works for me...its plausible cuz the humor & absurd plot lines lend license to the good ole campy fun....this film is so non offensive in its Horromedy form that kids of all ages could enjoy it...Nickelodeon or Disney should play this one on Halloween like every year in the tradition of inviting children to the softer side of Horror.

Poe W Feb 20, 2017 Wes Cravans tackle of the Werewolf genre isn't quite as good as you'd want or expect. This movie is ok. It's not horrible but it's far from good. The whole plot itself isn't anything new but sounds good enough but how its handled in this movie just isn't very good and full of cheese. As a werewolf movie you'd expect this to be somewhat scary but as it's littered with jump scares and poor special effects as well as cringe dialogue with little to no tension building it really doesn't come off as horror. It's really sad because this had the potential to be something great. The casting I think is pretty good. The 2 leads I think do fine with the material they're given altho a lot of the other side and supporting character are hit or miss. The werewolf itself as a creature in the film it was really dumb. It was CGI most of the time and it jumped around everywhere and it could somewhat talk altho in a high pitched scream which takes away the scare plus that bird moment really removed any scare factor that was left in the werewolf altho there was something amusing about seeing a werewolf flip somebody off. Also that fact that this film is R but they went really shy with any blood or gore is just a bad decision as the werewolf never gets anywhere close to those epic brutal moments like in The Howling or An American Werewolf in London. It's design I think is pretty good and when they used an actual practical suit it looks pretty good for the most part. The CGI is really bad especially in the transformation scene where everything was rendered in CGI. It looked extremely fake and you could notice when they kept going back between a CGI Werewolf and a practical suit as it didn't blend well at all. I honestly don't know why this movie is R. There's barley any nudity in it at all. They don't use the F word much maybe only once or twice if I recall and the movie has little to no blood or gore in it so the R rating is a bit confusing since it really doesn't warrant one. The movie is full of pointless subplots like the fortune teller showing up and contributing nothing to the story or the bullies subplot with Jesses character which leads to nothing important for the plot or story. This is the type of film where you should just get a bunch of friends together and watch it on Halloween getting drunk and making fun of it. Overall tho I give it a 2/5. See more
