Cayden Richards, 18, has it all: Captain of the high school football team, straight-A student, gorgeous girlfriend. But one dark, strange night Cayden awakes to find his parents brutally murdered and his body drastically changing. He is horrified to realise that he is turning into an animal; a wild, savage wolf. Panicked, Cayden flees, determined to find out what is happening to him. His quest for truth leads him to a strange, isolated town. From the outset everyone seems normal but before long he discovers two clans of wolves are on the brink of war. When Cayden falls for Angelina, the beautiful, young mate promised to the head of the clan, a battle to the death is inevitable. As his past begins to unravel, Cayden's place in the world becomes clearer. Does Cayden alone hold the power to put an end to the savage violence building up around and within him?

Wolves might even be better than the whole of The Twilight Saga. I mean Lucas Till is a hell of a faggot, but Jason Momoa as his adversary more than makes up for it with his demonic performance. It’s also nice that David Hayter even wrote the script and didn’t simply base it on a book, which is quite fresh when it comes to American fantasy.

Acting-wise, this is a film that is quite accessible and bearable. It's essentially not a horror film, as that clearly wasn't the focus. As for the individual characters, quite interesting actors were chosen, including Lucas Till, Stephen McHattie, and Jason Momoa. While the characters aren't written that well, they're certainly tolerable, and you can get through the movie with them.
