In a small town populated by lycanthropes, a woman (Rhona Mitra) and her son (Matthew Knight) prepare for the boy's 13th birthday. However, two groups of werewolves know that the red moon is fast approaching, and the child's true power will soon come to fruition. One pack believes that the child will lead the race into the future, but the other decides to destroy him.

Critics Consensus

Skinwalkers is an atrociously-acted project whose unoriginal and ineptly-staged action sequences remind viewers of far better werewolf and action movies.

Kudos to the ad campaign, but nuts to everyone else involved in this snuffly, histrionic werewolves-at-war-with-one-another yawner.

A throwback to workmanlike '70s and '80s-era low-budget action thrillers.

Skinwalkers is never able to escape its fundamental preposterousness. You've seen worse, but, trust me, you've seen better.

Skinwalkers doesn't have a sense of humor or an inkling as to how dreadful its Grade-F production really is. It's not even enjoyable as schlock, as it’s rated PG-13 and doesn’t have enough blood and guts to take our minds off the poor writing.

2/5

It's obvious at times that Skinwalkers tries to emulate Kathryn Bigelow's awesome vampire western Near Dark, but without kickass character actors like Bill Paxton and Lance Henriksen onboard, it ain't the same.
