Unfortunately, he also starts seeing other humans as prey. Ordered t

DVD Review: The Three Wolf Moon shirt of werewolf movies
Summary: 1 Stars
When you watch enough horror movies, it starts to become a bit of Six Degrees of Syfy Bacon. I watched, in order: Skeleton Man, Bone Eater, and Monster Wolf. Surely, I thought, if I closed my eyes and just picked a movie at random from my overstuffed Tivo list I would find a film that had nothing to do with white people getting in touch with their Native American spiritual side. I should have kept my eyes closed.
Hybrid is obviously inspired by the shirtless spate of werewolves now common to the Twilight. But unlike the Twilight series, or say, any other movie that involves werewolves, Hybrid has no special effects to speak of. But what it lacks in special effects, it makes up for with grainy stock footage of wolves. Seriously, fifty percent of this movie is just pictures of wolves biting, snarling, playing, and running. Sometimes they kill a buffalo.
Theoretically, this is a science fiction film about "cross-species organ transplants." When one scientist dares to challenge the logic of how this could possibly work, the response is "of course such a thing is impossible, which is why it works!" See what they did there? Clever, huh?
Our hero Aaron Scates (Corey Monteith) is the transplant recipient, and it's not long before he begins having wolf visions and wolf instincts, because it makes perfect sense that wolf eyes make you lupine. In between eating raw steaks and not wearing a shirt, Scates encounters museum curator Lydia Armstrong (Tinsel Korey), who recognizes the eyes of the wolf she once tried to help. Armstrong isn't very good at helping anybody, wolf or man, and it's not long before Scates is on the run again.
A Special Forces team is tasked with hunting Scates down so that he may be properly exploited for scientific and military purposes. They needn't have bothered - Scates only hops around, growls, pants (yes, there is actually the sound of a dog panting when Scates runs through the forest), and occasionally shows up with blood on his chest.
Actors scream in terror to help make up for the fact that there's nothing scary about Scates whatsoever, other actors try to pretend they care about capturing Scates, and wolves flash on the screen for minutes at a time. The ending is stultifying lame, with a record "fade out" exit of a main character. That's right, he fades out of the scene.
This movie is a real dog. Actually, it's worse than that. It's The Mountain Three Wolf Moon Shirt of werewolf movies.
