Das Werwolfspiel (2013) User Reviews

Just bad and boring

[wildrebel2013 · 1/10 · 8 May 2013]

If you expect an Horror movie or even an Thriller forget it. This is just badly directed and boring. A real disappointment.

The camera work is really terrible. There is not much moving in the camera work and when the camera moves the cameraman isn't able to pull the focus. Especially the outdoor scenes are all blurred. The lighting is terrible, too. Sometimes the actors are covered with shadows and that is not because of an artistically style.

The acting is bad, too. None of the characters gets a chance of development. One of the funniest scenes is when one of the female characters cuts the heart out from an male actor - she cuts the heart out from his stomach(!!) Doctor, Doctor - where are you when they need your help ?

Don't waste your time with this film. Better take some cards and play the Werwolvegame with your friends.

Austrian dud

[Leofwine_draca · 1/10 · 7 February 2018]

THE WEREWOLVES OF MILLER'S HOLLOW is a typical dreadful indie horror flick that hails from Austria this time around. The whole thing is devoid of talent and interest, centred around a family gathering where role playing turns deadly. As is usual with these indie films lacking the most basic of production values, the whole story plays out through dialogue alone, dialogue which is delivered by a cast of amateur performers. As such it's inherently dull and really not worth your time.

Sophisticated Horror from Austria

[ulrichoehlinger · 10/10 · 2 November 2017]

Johanna Rieger's creation proofs that Horror Movies from Austia can be really classy. This movie was recommended to me by friends who love the role-play "the Werewolfes of Miller's Hollow" so I streamed it on Vimeo. The story line follows the development of the game, a very unique dramatically masterpiece, it comes more like a mystery-thriller than an ordinary splatter. The very precise and static camera angles give you a perfect feeling about the surreal hopelessness of the situation. The main characters psychological abyss is brilliantly displayed by Johanna Riegers excellent marked down awesome performance. According to reports, the budget was nearly nothing for that feature film, it really does not look like that, respect!
