The Rats Are Coming! The Werewolves Are Here!
The daughter in a family of werewolves decides to put an end to the family curse.
Why it matters
A scrappy early ’70s werewolf flick that blends gothic curse mythology with offbeat regional charm, capturing the era’s low-budget horror spirit at its most earnest.
- A rare American werewolf movie that leans into family curse drama rather than pure monster mayhem.
- Delightfully patchy practical effects and makeup that reveal the gritty, hands-on craft of early ’70s indie horror.
- Perfect for fans of cult-flavored lycanthropy who appreciate earnest ambition over polish.
- Feels like a lost VHS relic from a time when horror was still carving out its genre rules, making it a fascinating time capsule.
