Summary: Stupid
Review: The plot to this movie is stupid, and the acting is very bad. The men are handsome and nice to look at, but that is all there is to this movie.

Summary: The best film ever about gay werewolves
Review: The Wolves of Kromer is a strikingly original British fantasy that uses the wolf image as a metaphor for being "gay". Although the film was invariably low-budget it has been beautifully photographed on various rural English locations and cast with two extraordinarily photogenic newcomers as the two lead were-guys. In the same way that Anne Rice reimagined the vampire image in her books, being a werewolf in this film essentially consists of wearing a fur coat and having a bushy tail sticking out one's backside (a sort of phallic pun perhaps) rather than being a special effects monster of the American Werewolf or Howling variety.While numerous horror films have toyed around with homosexuality in various forms this is probably the most overt it has ever been, at least since some of the late 70's Hammer lesiban vampire films. To call this a horror film though is somewhat innacurate as it is much more of a symbolic fairy-tale with virtually swear-free dialogue and no graphic onscreen violence or sex. Obviously from the other reviews posted here those looking for these things will be disappointed. A charming work.

Summary: Haunting, mind-blowing
Review: This is one of those rare movies that upon first view it enthralled and frightened me with it's subconsious familiarity. From Boy George's first words of narration to the strange interaction of a local women to these two "wolves" I was hooked. And while it could be seen as simpistic. When have fairy tales ever been complex? A case could be made that the acting is all over the place. Have you seen Star Wars II? The great "secret" of this movie seemed a bit obvious. But considering the current stuff in the paper seems sort of precient. Entertaining. Sensual. Evocative. Strange.

Summary: Gorgeous window dressing and not much else
Review: Though the idea is inventive (gay werewolves - not exactly an overdone story), it is also underdeveloped. The stars are really nice to look at, but the plot is uninvolving, and the rest of the cast is unexceptional. Only buy it if you are interested in a post-party night, not too taxing, entertainment for a Sunday afternoon.

Review: What a magical movie! This movie was well directed, well acted and above all well original!
James Layton and Lee Williams embrace their roles so well. They both acted so well together.
This is by far the best movie I have seen in a long time.
My congratulations to the Cast and Crew for a truly fantastic movie.
BUY IT BUY IT BUT IT !
