Titreenp SERIOUSLY. This is what the crap Hollywood still puts out?
Ploydsge just watch it!
Sienna-Rose Mclaughlin The movie really just wants to entertain people.
Scarlet The film never slows down or bores, plunging from one harrowing sequence to the next.
Wuchak Released in 1995, "Howling: New Moon Rising" chronicles events in a small California desert town after a long-haired Australian rides into town on his Harley (Clive Turner) and a series of murders occurs. A priest insists it's the work of a demonic werewolf (John Huff ) and a detective (John Ramsden) zeroes-in on the stranger. Clive Turner, the producer/director/writer/star was forced to use non-actors due to his limited non-budget. The only figure I could find was $250,000, but some would argue that it sounds like too much. Whatever the case, the bad actors, the focus on country music and the scarcity of a werewolf understandably prompts loathing from most viewers. But, if you can acclimate to the lousy non-acting, the story's another werewolf mystery in the mold of 1988's "Howling IV" and 1989's "Howling V," both of which Turner wrote and had a bit part.What I like about this installment is that it tries to connect all the movies with flashbacks to the two aforementioned flicks and, if you listen carefully, makes references to the others. It also brings back Romy Windsor from "IV" and regularly references Elizabeth Shé's character from "V"; Shé is also listed in the cast, but I couldn't pinpoint her, except in the flashback scenes (the comely woman in the yellow shirt at the end is Cheryl Allen, not Shé). The other thing I like about it is that it's consistently amusing with several corny jokes and you can tell the cast had a good time together. The film runs 90 minutes and was shot in Pioneertown and nearby Yucca Valley, California. GRADE: D+ (3/10)
snowyb666 This is the worst film i've ever seen. I can't think of one redeeming feature of this film at all. I just wish I could erase it from my memory. Just bad. SO bad. Do yourself a favour and never ever ever waste your life watching this film. Someone bought me this film for a present because I like werewolf movies and I hadn't seen it. The really odd thing about it of course being it has no werewolves in it, well none that I could see. It had no plot. It had no-one that could act. It had the lamest special effects which I could only assume were done by someone with a Spectrum ZX81. I suppose the most abhorrent thing about this film is that it got made in the first place. Which crazy person saw the pitch and the 'script' and thought, "Yeah, I know, I'll just waste money on this and hope people will waste theirs on renting it". Just bad bad bad bad. I sincerely hope no-one considers making Howling 8. Just think how bad that would be! I was hoping there was a 0 vote on the voting thing because that's what this movie is, a big fat Zero.
kerkover I don't understand why they even made this film. There is no story, no scares, and nothing new to the series. The only part of this film of any value is the variety of clips they used from the previous Howling films. Why on earth they thought they could get away with using a steady-cam with a red filter to portray a werewolf is beyond me.Only the very well rendered cover/poster art for this film gives it a reason to exist.If you are a fan of the Howling series or werewolf movies in general, then the first four films are as far as I advise you go. The werewolf film as a genre has little to pick from as far as gems, but New Moon Rising is perhaps the worst ever conceived.
Sarkax Well, many people say to movies that "It's the worst they ever seen" but believe you me when I say that this is really the worst movie I've ever seen. It's not even funny bad, just plain awful.Plot? - I don't really know, is there? Werewolfs? - One in the last 20 seconds of the movie.Blood n Gore? - Naah,nothing good. Nothing at all in fact.Chills? - Yeah, realizing it's a real film and not just a joke.Dancing Hillbillies? - Yes, for about 90 minutes of the movie.This is so bad that it makes me cry out for justice. Never again should we have to watch a godforsaken awful movie like this. No further comments
