The film creates a perfect balance between action and depth of basic needs, in the midst of an infertile atmosphere.

The story, direction, characters, and writing/dialogue is akin to taking a tranquilizer shot to the neck, but everything else was so well done.

Night Shadows distinct lack of budget is on display and alas really does show, the creators do their best to mask this but the problem is evident.Telling the generic story of a group of people in small town America during a series of werewolf attacks there isn't anything even remotely on display.What the movie has going for it however is a decent cast who are well written and thus you actually care to a degree about their fates.With an anti-climatic finale the movie is the very definition of average. It's not bad by any means but it's instantly forgettable.The Good:Likeable charactersHas a certain charmThe Bad:Lack of budget showsHardly originalThings I Learnt From This Movie:In the movies if you have a mullet you're instantly a bad guy or an idiotI have no idea why any man would choose to wear vests/t-shirts like brasIn the 1980's ever asian person is a ninja

I had the opportunity to work in this film that was originally titled "Lycanthrope" which means werewolf in Greek. I was the Stunt Coordinator, stunt double, stunt driver and played a biker. We had a couple of good fight scenes, chases, high fall, a crash and car explosion. The acting was surprisingly good without any big names or budget. It was fun to work on. Kato Kaelin was natural in his acting and should have been made known from this instead of the OJ trial. Cohlan and Temple also made a film with Bruce Cooke before this in 1987 called "Line Of Fire", which I also worked on. I don't know if the film is available. Thanks guys for a great start in the beginning of my career. Keep it up!

*SPOILER ALERT* *SPOILER ALERT*Terrible. Awful. Retching. Nightmarish. Worst movie ever. I mean ever. I have seen some painful films in my day but this is the king. It still hasn't been dethroned.The video box had a huge werewolf on the cover. Naturally, I couldn't resist. After my brain aneurysm, I returned it and the video store went out of business the next week. I think the store must have been a mirage just to get some sucker to rent this god awful film.Supposedly there is a werewolf attacking a town. I don't remember seeing one till the very end. Do silver bullets kill the beast? *SPOILER ON ENDING COMING* No! In the final insult, they run over the flea bitten wolf with their car! Must have had silver hubcaps.

What bad movies are all about! Some spoilers below, if you don't want to know, don't read on. This one is a classic. It stars Kato Kaelin and the only thing worse than his hair is his acting. I don't remember much of plot, but there is a really mangy werewolf going around killing folks. Also some really bad kung fu, funny, funny stuff. This film drips cheese, if you can find it I highly recommend.
