Skin Walkers

2006-Horror

Always to throw something in the mix, I cant deny my attraction toward cheesy Horror films. No matter how vile, and waist of times they are. Much like viewing ones own fecal matter going down the drain and you cant help but observe thinking 'that came out of me'

Synopsis:
A 'Skin walker' is a native American legend about people possessed with a wolf spirit. They took that legend and created a Werewolf movie. The legend has it that a 13 year old boy will Finlay stop the curse of feeding on human flesh/blood. Not all Skin Walkers believe having this body is a curse, and others want the curse to end. it all boils down to the little boy.

All-in-All:
I was already half way through the movie when i decided to write this review. For legitimacy's sake i waited for the ending to complete this film in case if there were any actual saving graces before damn this film.
OK, damn was too harsh.
Its just that everything in this film was predictable, characterization is forced and motives/consistency of characteres were undefined outside of the "I'm bad... look how bad i am".
This film almost mimics the Russian film 'Night watch' without the awesome visual flair, and even that film was average at best.

Riko's Rating: C+
