Plot synopsis:
Lou Garou (loup garou is French for werewolf), an alcoholic cop in the small community of Woodhaven, spends most of his day either asleep at work or at Jessica's bar. When his friend Willie Higgins phones in a complaint of occult activity in the area of his gun store, the police chief sends Garou to investigate. After meeting with Higgins, Garou dismisses his concerns as the actions of heavy metal fans. Higgins again reports a disturbance, and the chief forces Garou to investigate. When he arrives at the scene, Garou finds occultists in the middle of a ceremony to sacrifice an upstart politician who was running on a platform of reform and anti-corruption. Garou is knocked out and wakes up the next morning in his bed, not remembering how he got there, though he has a pentagram carved into his stomach.
Garou's senses become extremely sharp, and his wounds heal near-instantly. As he investigates the case, he surprises Jessica and his coworkers, all of whom had written him off as lazy and incompetent. As he goes over his notes at Jessica's bar, she encourages him to drink more and invites him to join her privately. Before he can, two criminals part of a local gang sneak into the bar and attack him in the bathroom. Garou, who is in the middle of a transformation into a werewolf, easily kills one and drives off the other. Angry that they did not kidnap Garou, the gang leader stabs out the eye of the escaped gangster when he claims to have seen Garou transform into a monster. Meanwhile, Garou ends up in Higgins' house, handcuffed to the bed. Higgins explains that he captured Garou and restrained him for his own safety. Higgins later researches his condition, and they learn that occult ceremonies in which a werewolf is sacrificed can strengthen the magic of reptilian shapeshifters.
Garou and his partner, Tina, investigate the deaths at the bar and a series of seemingly unrelated armed robberies by a gang who wear pig masks. Higgins convinces Garou that he must be restrained at night, and Garou submits to being locked in the town's jail. However, when the police station receives a call for help, Garou, who has since transformed into a werewolf but has retained his human intelligence, dons his policeman's uniform and heads to the local supermarket, where the pig-mask gang have taken hostages. Garou savagely kills all the pig-mask robbers and heads toward a meth lab. Higgins cowers in the car as Garou again savagely kills several gun-wielding gangsters. When they return to the police station, Jessica seduces Garou while he is in his werewolf form, only to reveal that she is a shapeshifter and also the town's elderly mayor. Higgins also reveals himself as a shapeshifter and theorizes that Garou's alcoholism has made him stronger than their previous victims, all of whom they were able to control.
Garou is drugged and brought to a second ceremony, where he is to be sacrificed during an eclipse so that the town's ruling elite, all of whom are reptilian shapeshifters, can continue to hide their true identity and rule indefinitely. Tina arrives and confronts the police chief, who shapeshifts into the gang leader, and Higgins. Tina and Garou kill Higgins, Jessica, and the gang members, but the chief surprises them with a sneak attack. Weakened by the approaching eclipse, Garou is wounded when shot by the chief, but he realizes that alcohol is the source of his enhanced power. As Garou consumes a flask of alcohol, Tina impales the police chief on a sword. He uses it to also stab her, but before he can finish her, Garou shoots and kills the police chief. Garou and Tina limp off together, and Garou promises to drop her off at a hospital after he gets another drink.

Review: The acting isn't very good, but the quality of the special effects is a real surprise; they actually turn out to be very good indeed, with some excruciating werewolf transformations that work well.
It's an amiable time-waster although those looking for genuine originality or insight will be disappointed; WOLFCOP is a film that offers nothing new for fans and instead is happy to go through the usual and expected motions..
As a series of strange and violent events start happening, an alcoholic policeman (Leo Fafard) realizes that he has been turned into a werewolf as part of a larger plan, so he investigates with the help of his partner and his friend.Bloody Disgusting gave WolfCop a positive review and stated, "A perfect storm of creature action, the occult, gore, intrigue, humor, and lycanthropic puns, WolfCop is destined for cult glory." Darn right, Bloody Disgusting.
He becomes the WolfCop.A low budget Canadian horror comedy flick in the style of Hobo With A Shotgun.
With a modest budget of a million dollars, Lowell Dean manages to make the film look and feel like it belongs with those 70's and 80's flicks you'd find at the bottom of a dollar bin at Wal-Mart.
! !I love films like this they are great fun, you don't need to take them seriously whatsoever, just sit back and enjoy, and have a good old giggle..
There are too many spoof films out there that just don't work and wreck the genre - this is a true 'B' grade movie with plenty of laugh out loud moments.
I'm not going to compare this in any way shape or form to the Evil Dead movies other than to say I almost like the lead character as much as Bruce Campbell himself, but for totally different reasons (unleash the hounds of criticism with that statement!!!!).
The film is a low budget campy completely non serious Canadian movie about a cop turned into a werewolf so that his blood can be harvested by shape shifters.
However, when you see the trailer of that other, insanely stupid looking, Canadian werewolf movie Wolves (which actually will get a theatrical release in Belgium) and know that one cost almost 15 million euro's, one can wonder why WolfCop doesn't suffice.
Wolf Cop seems like it should be a good or at least a fun movie.
The poster has a werewolf on it who is a cop, I mean how in the world can a movie about that not be worth watching on any single night of any week ever?Well this is how.Wolf Cop is disappointing on every single level.
I loved this film, it was funny, zany, silly and had a good straight werewolf character and the perfect comedy sidekick.The narrative and special effects were none too shabby and as a watching experience it was better than most Hollywood horror films that have budgets 40 times greater but zero love of the genre.
His chief forces to do his job and go out on a call for once and that's when things get hairyyeah, I said it.Lowell Dean writes the screenplay and directs the fun film based off Bannister Bergen's weird story.
Trust me, guys and gals, you are not going to want to miss out.Hopefully WolfCop follows in the footsteps of Ginger Snaps, a fellow werewolf flick it tilts its figurative hat to in the film, and makes it to cult status because it is entertainingly amusing.For more FULL reviews of RECENT release, please go to our website..
As someone who enjoyed the wonderful b-level horror and action films of the glorious heydays of the 80s and 90s, I was rather looking forward to this werewolf themed cop film.
WolfCop turns into a werewolf they show him turning by showing his normal human penis (albeit obviously made of plastic) peeing blood to then in front of the camera turn dark and get covered with hair when he's finally turning...So yeah it's not for the kids either, I dunno who would like this, the jokes are just lame, if there are any jokes (hard to tell since I didn't find it funny one bit).I dunno I think that they got an idea that doing a movie about a cop that's also a werewolf and just halfassed a script.Best part of the movie is when the credits roll because the song that plays there is actually pretty good.If you want a comedy with werewolves I suggest "FDR American BadAss (2012)" instead, that's also kinda silly but at least it has some jokes to back it up...
This is a boring, low-budget werewolf cop film.
The special effects, beginning with the werewolf costume and continuing throughout the movie, are really poor, as is the acting from the almost entirely Canadian cast.
Whenever it falls flat, it feels more endearing than broken, which I suppose is due to the makers actually caring about what they were filming, and I'll take a lovingly crafted low-budget slopfest over an a-list blockbuster that wasn't given a single rat's behind by it's authors.With that being said, there isn't really anything that stands out as exceptionally good.
On the flip side of things, I couldn't find anything really horrible here either, as WolfCop is adept at covering its tracks (pun intended).Booming with b-movie grit and outrageously strange choices of plot elements, WolfCop is a must watch for fans of "so bad it's good" – films and those interested in amateur films.
WolfCopIf werewolves were allowed on the force, they'd no doubt be butting heads with the K-9 unit all the time.Case in point, the lycanthropic patrolman in this horror-comedy.Small-town police sergeant Lou Garou (Leo Fafard) gets mixed up in the occult when he stumbles on a human sacrifice involving a local politician.
This encounter leaves Lou with heightened senses and a hairy complexion.Still lucid while in his wolf form, Garou dons his badge and helps his partner (Amy Matysio) put an end to these otherworldly rituals intended to replenish the reptilian race (Jonathan Cherry, Sarah Lind) infesting their jurisdiction.A brazen B-movie through-and-through, this all-Canadian gore-fest utilizes its home and native land's second-rate production values and tepid acting abilities to jury-rig together a cult classic that every camp-loving Canucks can be proud of.Unfortunately, however, when wolf-cops are on-duty there is a drastic increase in unarmed cat shootings.Yellow Lightvidiotreviews.blogspot.ca.
It tells the tale of an alcoholic cop named Leo, and one night out investigating some pesky teenagers partying out in the woods, stumbles upon an occult like setup, gets banged over the head, wakes up in the morning with quite a hangover, and a pentagram carved into his chest.
Turned into a werewolf, a small town policeman with a drinking problem comes to realise that can use his wolf strength to fight crime on full moon nights in this horror-comedy filmed on location in rural Saskatchewan.
And yet, while there are some subtle humorous touches, like a fellow cop resting his doughnut on a corpse's knee, the film only really becomes laugh-out-loud funny in its second half as the title character begins to embrace his dual identity.
The cast is game, the pacing more than adequate (this clocks in at an appreciably brief 80 minutes), the gore is well done, and the makeup effects do look to be mostly practically done.Leo Fafard plays officer Lou Garou (the name itself is an in-joke, as "loup-garou" is the French term for werewolf), a hopeless drunk and pretty inept cop in small town Canada.
Alcoholic policeman Lou Garou (Leo Fafard) is turned into a werewolf by a cult of reptilian shape-shifters who, every 32 years, must drain the blood of a lycanthrope to enhance their powers.As its rather silly title and my above synopsis suggest, WolfCop is a film that sets out to be a whole load of cheesy B-movie fun, and in that it largely succeeds.
From the lead character's stupidly apt name—Lou Garou is a truncation of loup-garou, French for werewolf—to the ridiculously OTT gore effects, to the sight of the werewolf cop pimping his ride and firing a machine gun, WolfCop is one hell of a daft film.
Which also makes it one hell of an entertaining film.Once Lou has experienced his first unforgettable transformation (which takes place while he is taking a leak, resulting in the unforgettable sight of his penis swelling to massive proportions before bursting open in all of its hairy glory), the blood flows thick and fast, with our unfortunate lycanthropic lawman cleaning up his home town, tearing the criminals apart rather than reading them their rights (funniest moment: a guy having his face ripped clean off!).WolfCop also finds time to tick the gratuitous nudity box, Lou indulging a spot of sexy action with buxom barmaid Jessica (Sarah Lind), before a fun final showdown that sees WolfCop settling the score against the reptilian shape-shifters, with a little help from tasty female deputy Tina (Amy Matysio)..
No, the film is actually well-made, features some good acting and a story that's got a few new things.I think the best thing going for the film is that Fafard gives such a good performance that he perfectly brings this character to life and makes you like him.
Let me begin with saying that if you only can dig serious movies or real horrors that this isn't going to be your thing.
If you just see a werewolf having sex and then smoking a cigarette that must tell you what kind of movie this really is.Normally such kind of flicks are torn away by the buffs but this one here is surely worth picking up because the story is good and the effects used for the werewolf were above mediocre for a low budget.
all cops are bastards, especially WolfCop. break out your bongs for this low-budget horror comedy by writer/director Lowell Dean, featuring a killer soundtrack by stoner doom metal band Shooting Guns the storyline, though not terribly compelling, is original, the acting is competent, the humour more surrealist, in a good way, than laughter-inducing.
the werewolf design and make-up art in particular bear resemblance to Joe Johnston's Wolfman and are some of the best i've seen watch the trailer to get a fairly good idea of what to expect; you'll know whether or not the style suits your taste.
By far the most fun I have had watching a film for years I can't recommend this film enough.if you want a dark scary werewolf film this is not for you,if you a want film full crazy wolfcop madness you must watch it and you will love it.this film is best watched in a group as the laughter adds to the atmosphere and you will laugh.you must give wolf cop a chance at first it seems a bit oh another drunk cop film but it soon departs from the norm and the whole story comes together to make sense of the utter madness that is wolfcop So to sum up funny wolfcop film with lots of unexpected thing happening throughout the film can't wait for wolfcop 2.
When a movie has a premise of a loser cop getting transformed into a werewolf and opening a can of whoopass against crime it should definitely be a lot more fun (and way more funny and action packed) than this movie is.
The jokes were either just non existent or just plain bad, I groaned several times through watching it.There's a pathetic attempt at a "funny" werewolf sex scene that also fails.
The only plus I saw was good makeup.The acting could be a lot better but who knows if these people had anything good to work with.Hugely disappointed in what looked like it would be a fun movie experience..
There must be some pretty desperate viewers (Well, Saskatchewan as the source local for most everyone involved goes a long ways to explain my despair over script, acting, props, prosthetics.) Fantasy can have it's own reality in the viewer's mind but tossing out junk that makes no sense like this film does strains credulity to no end.
If you're into movies like Maniac Cop and even those of you who like the Howling may love WolfCop as it attempts to parody or pay homage to both,.
The story of an alcoholic cop, and starring an actor I'd actually seen in a film before (Not as the WolfCop itself though), it got me invested in the despair of the run-down crime-ridden town.
The first transformation from Lou Garrou into Wolfcop was sudden, effective an phallic, and the film took a shift from grim and dark into some B-movie style awesomeness with bad jokes (he's 'the fuzz'), faces being ripped off, and a whole lot of cleaning up town.
The shedding of the skin alone was an outstanding idea and would've made the movie worth seeing for Genre fans, but add in the gallows humor (the female deputy, Tina, for instance, brandishes the face of a dead man like a Halloween mask, taunting our hero; and WolfCop finds himself momentarily DING-A-LING-LESS during one sequence) and you've got something a notch or two above average.
Disappointingly, it also doesn't feel like there are enough all-out gory, funny, ridiculous scenes that would make it a true B-movie classic.A good example of where this film fails to deliver is when Wolfcop and his mate decide to do up the police car, A-Team-style.
It's meant to be a spoof on werewolf films and the horror/action genre; it's meant to be silly and fun.
"Wolf Cop" Takes Werewolf Movies to the next Level!.
Writer & director Lowell Dean's "Wolf Cop" qualifies as a landmark movie in the tried-and-true werewolf movie genre.
The horror in "Wolf Cop" is the over-the-top variety; we know nothing like this could ever happen, and Dean gets comic mileage out of it, despite the appalling amount of blood.
Actually, what Dean does with "Wolf Cop" reminded me of some of Peter Jackson's early horror movie with over-the-top, exaggerated shenanigans.
So how does the low budget film WOLF COP fare?In the small town of Woodhaven, police officer Lou Garou (Leo Fafard) spends most of his time drunk or sitting at the local bar.
Better those that enjoy movies like this still have something to look forward to.So let's start with the bad.
The end result is a movie that's more fun than serious, to be taken for what it is which is a low budget film that has heart, a creative endeavor that pays off in some ways and falls short in others.
The transformation scenes and other gore treats were awesome, old school effects as opposed to lazy CGI - this has the best skinless screaming dude's face since Raiders of the Lost Ark.The plot is pretty flimsy, and if you want to see a more serious Canadian werewolf movie, go watch Ginger Snaps (the sequel was great too, but the third was awful).If you want to see a wolf in a cop uniform driving around in a pimped up cop car (there's a whole car pimping montage and it's EPIC) beating up and blowing up bad guys while drinking copious amounts of alcohol and eating donuts (both seem to add to his wolfiness), you need to see this.It would have been cooler to see more wolf cop action - there's only a few ass kicking scenes and it would have been fun to have a bit more (the cheesy sex scene is kind of a waste of potential ass kicking time, but I guess the B in B-movie has always stood for boobs).In summary, lots of fun and well worth your time.
British film Hot Fuzz is good fun for more 'whole town run by creepy cult' type action..
When it comes down to the end of the day, 'Wolfcop' is just a hell of a lot of fun and packed with moments where you'll scream out "Yes" or "That was awesome."This is one of the few rare occasions where a low budget monster movie got things right.
Wolfcop takes you on a Canadian journey to the town of Woodhaven where an alcoholic cop(Lou)gets pulled into a occult ritual making him a god damn werewolf!
Then, you're the right target audience for this fun horror comedy flick.There has been a whole lot of hype in the horror community for this movie so I honestly didn't know what to expect.
This is just a fun, wild ride.The movie's entire plot is right there in the title, a cop becomes a werewolf, and continues fighting crime in ridiculous ways that will remind some of the outright carnage of recent movies like HOBO WITH A SHOTGUN.
The film is about a police officer that gets kidnapped by a cult and They do a ritual on him which makes him turn into a wolf every time the full moon comes out.
I really liked the ending of the film when wolf cop fights all the bad guys.
I thought the ending was over the top and exciting.wolf cop wants his revenge and he fights against the same people that turned him into a wolf along with some other bad guys and he slices and dices them!.the makeup effects and practical effects were good and the ending was cool and the musical score was badass.I liked the movie and was very amused by it,its a Must see!..
A cop at a crossroads comes to grips with the advantages of becoming a werewolf.Director writer Lowell Dean offers a nostalgia trip in WolfCop. It took me back to the golden age of VHS horror, a time when practical effects ruled and every now again you had to clean the heads on your Video Player.
If you can't determine by the title that this was going to be a cheesy B-movie, then you need to watch more horror.
If you enjoy Werewolf puns, Cheesy B-Horror Movies with splatters of Gore, I say you'll have a Howlin' good time with WolfCop.
