Virginia 'Red' Sullivan (Felicia Day) is bringing home her fiancé Nathan Kessler, but she has a family secret she has to tell him. Her family has a long tradition of hunting werewolves. Normally the werewolves can only transform on a full moon. And the family have had a truce with the pack. However Gabriel (Stephen McHattie) seems to have the ability to change at will and the werewolves are on the hunt.This is a lower budget production. It has a good premise. However the low budget really limits the style. It doesn't compare to a big screen movie. The CG werewolves and transformations look amateurish. It looks like something somebody made on their personal PC. They would probably be better off using real FX and keeping them more hidden.Stephen McHattie is a great bad guy. He has good menacing presence. Felicia Day is pretty good as the lead. The acting is mostly fine by these lesser known actors. Too bad there isn't much behind them.

The concept was intriguing, but considering it was SyFy(who have been responsible for a lot of terrible movies, bottom-of-the-barrel in some cases) I was also dubious. What a surprise to see that Red: Werewolf Hunter was actually watchable. It is not perfect, and not award-worthy, but alongside The Lost Future, Tin Man and Alice(does Neverland count as SyFy, if so that too) it is one of their more watchable efforts. The dialogue is weak and the acting apart from Stephen McHattie, who's a lot of fun if occasionally too strident, at times felt stiff including from Felicia Day, who seems very detached. The story, sort of a take on Little Red Riding Hood, is mostly interesting, dark and imaginative also with an ending that was surprisingly unpredictable in how shocking and bittersweet it was, but there were also some parts that felt underdeveloped. However, the production values are better than expected, the effects are nothing amazing with some jarring movements but there have been far cheaper ones from SyFy, but I loved the costumes and spot-on sets, the Gothic atmosphere and the photography, which is less haphazard than I thought it would be. The music is haunting and the direction is pretty solid. The characters are okay if not always engaging at first, but you perhaps learn to warm to them by the end. Overall, not great, but watchable especially coming from a channel as notorious as SyFy. 7/10 Bethany Cox

Killed a little slice of a pleasant Saturday afternoon watching this. I read the other reviews and decided to get the DVD for kicks. Not bad. Actually, considering some of the complete flops put out on SyFy this was amazingly good. There was no bad plot twist, nothing to make it out more than what it was: good guys vs. bad guys. The bad guys, led by Stephen McHattie, are a new breed of werewolf able to shift forms at will. They're sick of a long standing truce with a family of hunters and set out to change things, making the earth theirs to roam free once more. "Red" (a name of honor given to the first female hunter of each generation) brings home her new FBI fiancée to meet the fam and give him the lowdown on her particular family tree. And trouble ensues.This is either a decent made-for-TV-movie, or as I thought watching it, a freakin' GREAT video game. And the CGI of the wolves made the second pretty easy to believe. I'll throw in there the last 60 seconds or so of this film were theatre worthy.Like I said, fun for a bit on the weekend.

As with Tin Man, this is better than one would expect for a made 4 TV SyFy channel movie. While the story is anything but original, it gives us a somewhat darker view of the Little Red Riding Hood story, along with a cohesive afterwards.Dialog delivery is a little stiff, but considering the source, I really enjoyed this, and cannot wait for it to come out on DVD/Blu-Ray, to watch it again and again. Honestly, Underworld, it ain't, but it does have a good story, some great innovatives, and a plausible delivery. It runs well, exhibits well, and follows through to a satisfactory ending.All in all we recommend this one for any werewolf fan. It is more than just your run of the mill formula.It gets an 8.2/10 on the M4TV scale from...the Fiend :.
