In Cameron, a group of hunters is attacked by a wild animal, and Charlie Cowley (Christopher Shyer) survives but sees his brother Scott (Andrew Bowen) dying. Seven years later, his teenage nephew Derek Cowley (Trevor Duke) steals the key of his stepfather's cabin in the isolated Fire Road 13 and travels with four classmates and his friend Sam (Kimberly J. Brown) to spend the weekend having a party with booze and sex. However, they are attacked by a Beast that kills his friends in a sadistic way. Sam and Derek survive, and they suspect that his stepfather Mitchell Toblat (Richard Tyson) is a werewolf. When Charlie meets Derek and Sam, they decide to collect evidence to prove that Mitchell is the Beast and kill him, but Mitchell discovers their plot and chases the trio.

"Big Bad Wolf" is a surprisingly good werewolf movie, with gore and black humor. The beginning with teenagers going to an isolated cabin and finding a monster is not original, but the sadistic attack of the werewolf, specially the virgin girl, is hilarious. The situation of Sam collecting DNA sample is also funny. The special effects are great for a B-movie and in the end "Big Bad Wolf" is a very entertaining movie and recommended for fans of the genre. My vote is seven.

Title (Brazil): Not Available

In the opening scene we get to see Derek's dad (Andrew Bowen) get his leg ripped off by a werewolf. Seven years later, mom (Sarah Aldrich) has remarried to Mitchell (Richard Tyson). Derek is pledging a fraternity, one that has him take his biker chick friend Samantha (Kimberly J. Brown) to the proverbial cabin in the woods with two movie typical college couples.

We already know it is a werewolf coming at us, no need to guess or a spinner. What we do find out is that this werewolf speaks, spouting out those "Freddie-esque" one liners. The film is linear with no twists. Derek (Trevor Duke-Moretz) was a very straight character and outside of some moments by Samantha, the characters were drab. Her relationship with Derek is, "I care about you more than any man I ever slept with."

The film has some good scenes such as the opening sequence when the guide announced, "We are being hunted." Unfortunately they didn't stretch out the good scenes.

Parental Guide: F-bomb, sex, nudity (Shannon Malone, Robin Sydney)

Wimpy Derek Cowley (the likable Trevor Duke),his scrappy tomboy best friend Samantha "Sam" Marche (an appealingly spunky performance by Kimberly J. Brown),and four of Derek's obnoxious college classmates go to a remote cabin in the woods owned by Derek's stepfather to party hearty. Things go sour when a vicious werewolf shows up and kills everyone except for Derek and Sam. Derek suspects that the werewolf is really his mean, jerky, abusive step dad Mitchel Toblat (excellently played to the sneering hateful hilt by Richard Tyson). Derek, Sam, and Derek's uncle Charle (the solid Christopher Shyer) all join forces to try to figure out a way to stop Toblat before he kills again. Writer/director Lance W. Dreesen offers a fresh and novel spin on the standard werewolf premise by cleverly blending the more horrific elements with a surprisingly potent and touching domestic drama. The main characters are unexpectedly engaging (Sam in particular is simply awesome, thanks mainly to Brown's winningly sparky portrayal of her),the acting overall acceptable, and the story unfolds at a constant steady pace. Popping up in nice cameos are Clint Howard as grubby hick Fulton Chaney and David Naughton as friendly Sheriff Joe Ruben. The nasty, hulking, wisecracking werewolf makes for a ferocious and frightening monster: the savage beast rips off heads, tears people to pieces, rapes women, and even brutally castrates one poor guy (ouch!). Dana Nu's spooky'n'shuddery score, Stephen Crawford's bright, polished cinematography, and the funky special effects are all uniformly up to par. Moreover, we even get plenty of unflinchingly graphic gore, a pleasing amount of tasty female nudity, a wickedly funny sense of pitch-black twisted humor, and even some soft-core sex. A nifty little sleeper.
