A chaste young-adult romance that bites into supernatural melodrama, science fiction and political conspiracy theories.

In excellent subversive faction, it's the feral boy that really connects with the viewer on screen.

More sensitive than sensational, 'A Werewolf Boy' is an interesting hybrid of the 'Twilight' saga, 'Frankenstein,' and 'Beauty and the Beast.' But there are touches here that make it purely Korean.

Drenched in fairy tale romance and beautifully acted with one of the screen's most charismatic teen couples, I'll take A Werewolf Boy's sweet, quiet charms over the overwrought, turgid Twilight films and their CGI puppies any day.
