Stardate 11.09.2021.A: 2021's 'Werewolves Within' Looking To Bite Into The Holiday Video Market

In case you're looking for proof that I don't see every movie in theaters that I want to, then look no further than Werewolves Within.  I specifically remember the wifey and I lying in bed one Saturday morning trying to figure out what we were going to do for the day.  We scrolled down the choices for the local cinema, and I think I even recommended this flick to her, made her check out the preview ... but something else must've come up because we didn't get to it.  Life happens ...

Still, Werewolves Within stayed on my radar.  I read a few complimentary reviews -- it currently scores a solid 6.0 on IMDB.com and a respectable 66 on Metacritic's scale of 100 -- and it definitely had some energy going for it.  As tends to happen with smaller releases which don't benefit from major studio advertising budgets, this little monster Comedy came and went reasonably quickly.  That's a crying shame as it boasts a talented cast, and I suspect even a little advert in prime time television hours could've pushed this one to be a contender ... though it's hard to say for certain in the days of COVID.

Word reached me just this morning that the film will be released just in time for the holidays, and I ask you: which of you doesn't want to spend the silly season with a werewolf?  Why, it's a match made in Heaven!

Details are below.  Interested parties are encouraged to pre-order now.

As always, thanks for reading ... and live long and prosper!
