Among the Shadows

Maybe this was an attempt to establish a new category of vampire/werewolf flicks. Apparently the lead character is a combination of both (how that came to be would make a fine movie by itself). Then add lots of bizarre blends and colorization to short clips or even entire scenes, long strings of monotone dialog, and lethargic reactions by people in imminent danger - like those poor joggers. The anticipated result will be an offbeat but thought-provoking experience for viewers, something like when canvas artists replace realism with surreal imagery to stir imaginations.

Or maybe this movie really is nothing more than a horrifying train wreck.

A Brussels secret detective who comes from a long descent of werewolves uses her inherent abilities to unwind the conspiracy following her uncle's death.

Now we've all seen bad movies. But this film fails on every level of competency, I wouldn't even consider it a film at all. It's pitifully strung together with poor editing, sloppily moved along with endless stock footage. Every scene with Lohan has been poorly edited into the film either with a green screen or one of those suspiciously high-quality Skype calls we see so often in films. A scene near the end even uses leftover B-roll footage on the very green screen she's sat in front of for the whole movie.

The sad thing is this is Lohan's first movie in over 5 years, I just ask myself why this? I want a comeback from her as much as the next person but this film failed on every level imaginable.

This will be in the bin at Dollar Tree soon, and will be marked 50% off.

I'm amazed that they found actors who were so awful they almost made Lindsay Lohan look good(ish). Then again, what should I expect from a direct to video on demand release? However, the tactics of bad acting didn't make her appear any better, making the fact that she can't act more prominent. At least her role was minimal. What's with the dirty lens filter? That's just weird and out of place. They don't transform like other werewolves I've seen, which I guess is alright, but I couldn't tell the difference between vampire and wolf. Detective Kristy Wolfe is a vampire, isn't she? Wait. What? She's a werewolf, too? I guess I should've known that based on her last name. This film is so low budget that they couldn't afford to run to Party City for a few werewolf masks. Seriously, had they not said they were werewolves, I would've continued to think they were vampires. I cannot express the horror I felt watching Among the Shadows, and not because it was scary. This has to be the worst movie I've ever tortured myself with, and it gives me great pleasure to give this movie 0 out of 5 Stars.

Yes I have felt embarrassed to watch it...so disgraceful acting, story, editing, clue.....it is a mystery how the could have done such a awful "movie"..... shame of you......change your job making movies and acting is not for yous.....accept it.
