Storyline

In this first installment of the werewolf trilogy, we follow a group of shape-shifting werewolves that appear in a small town in search of a mysterious girl who is re-born once every 2000 years. In order to save their kind from the brink of extinction, they must capture her before she becomes a full fledged Lycan and reclaim her place as the Alpha species. Unknown to them however lurks yet another of her kind secretly living in the same small town. If they can capture both, then they would have the power to control a new species of werewolves and enslave the human race.

This film is awful. This film is beyond all descriptors or adjectives that could be used to imply how awful it is. 

The dialogue is garbage. The plot is garbage. The CGI is garbage. The acting is garbage. The Music is garbage. The execution is garbage. 

Nothing in this movie makes any sense. It has no internal logic. It neither sets any internal rules for how its universe is supposed to work, nor would it follow them if it did. 

This film is the living incarnation of a 15-year old Goth kid's notebook sketches being realized with a budget enough to put CGI in. 

The main cast dress like anime characters in a world populated by people dressed like normal human beings. They speak hokey garbage dialogue that sounds like it was intended to be deep. Garbage Nu- Metal-Lite plays throughout it constantly. If you like shoddy Linkin Park knockoffs, maybe the music is for you.

Everything about this movie was garbage, from beginning to end. 

Don't let the myriad positive reviews previously here fool you - pure astroturfing by a marketing firm or the cast and crew themselves. Dozens of accounts created years ago with one review: Dark Moon Rising, using common talking points, and mentioning renting it on DVD in reviews all submitted the same day, long before the DVD is set to be released. 

So not only is this movie the work of hacks, but also frauds. 

Every part of this is garbage, do not debase yourself by watching it.
