Modern science, rural v. city politics, and a drop of superstitious fantasy come together for a partly found footage horror nightmare with werewolves.

While Wer stumbles a bit out of the gate, a fiercely wild werewolf story eventually takes over that enters genre areas previously unexplored by horror filmmakers, resulting in an ambitious payoff that redefines how we see werewolves.

A cool addition to the Werewolf genre, albeit on with its own host of issues, chief among which is the atrocious camera quality. _Final rating:★★½ - Had a lot that appealed to me, didn’t quite work as a whole._

Ultimately, I appreciated exactly two things about this movie: 1) the shot where the werewolf jumps off the building and lands like a cat; and 2) the shots of the ring-lit silhouette of the wet werewolf. That's it: the movie looked cool for a minute. Wer is technically fine but creatively bereft. Don't waste your time.
