Am I Missing Something?
Mabel Munoz
Just intense enough to provide a much-needed diversion, just lightweight enough to make you forget about it soon after it’s over. It’s not exactly “good,” per se, but it does what it sets out to do in terms of putting us on edge, which makes it … successful?
Lidia Draper
Great example of an old-fashioned, pure-at-heart escapist event movie that doesn't pretend to be anything that it's not and has boat loads of fun being its own ludicrous self.

Strippers vs Werewolves (2012) ** (out of 4) British mix of comedy and horror about a stripper who kills a werewolf whose colony then comes from revenge. This means that the entire strip club must stick together to try and destroy the hairy beasts. STRIPPERS VS WEREWOLVES was obviously influenced by ZOMBIE STRIPPERS but unlike that film this one here doesn't seem to know what it wants to do. The story itself is pretty stupid from start to finish and I must admit that quite often it just seemed to go off the rails on things that just weren't all that interesting. I'd also say the movie doesn't work in regards to the laughs or the horror elements. Most of the jokes are aimed around dead bodies and their erections towards the strippers. It was funny the first or second time but after that the joke just gets boring. The horror elements are decent but nothing overly memorable. This includes the werewolves and their looks. The special effects are good but they're certainly far from memorable. Those looking for a lot of exploitation are probably also going to be disappointed because there's really not as much nudity or naughty bits as you might expect. All of this leads me to wonder what the point of the movie was. There's certainly moments where the film is taking itself way too serious but then at other times it seems like it just wants to be goofy fun. Overall the thing is mildly entertaining but there's no question that it's highly uneven. The performances are pretty much what you'd expect, although Robert Englund does show up for a brief spot.

Britain leads the world when it comes to tongue in cheek horror SHAUN OF THE DEAD started a sub-genre of comedy horror movies both sides of the Atlantic , one of which was STRIPPERS VS WEREWOLVES , a horror comedy done with a nod to Guy Ritchie and a film that made £38 on the first week of its release £38 !!! Let me see now if my arithmetic is right then even one cinema showing this in the entire United Kingdom only received a grand total of between four to eight paying patrons ! Surely this must be either some mistake or some type of record . Surely no film can be bad enough to receive such low box office ? To be blunt STRIPPERS VS WEREWOLVES is trash comedy horror but didn't we know that from the title ? In its defence it does contain a lot of well known faces from British soap operas and it does have a mentalist plot featuring a gang of werewolves on a revenge mission against a group of strippers who killed one of their number in a club . This is the type of movie that will win Movie Of The Month in FHM In its ambition to fuse comedy , horror and Guy Ritchie it fails to do any of them justice and the story meanders all over the place , so much so that one thinks the title is merely to remind the audience of what the story is about . There's also a very irritating technique of using split screen by director Johnathan Glenedening which doesn't work and shows that there's only one Guy Ritchie

Hyped in the British specialized magazines I was eager to see it. For two reasons in fact, the cockney accent (not that much after all) and the title is, admit it, attractive.From the first minute you know that you can't take it seriously. Just watch the first minutes when a lap dance is going wrong. The guy enjoying it turns into a werewolf and is killed by the stripper. But look at the werewolf, it really looks ridiculous. From there on we move to the strip joint Vixen. Do I need to say more. Split screens are used and it's up to you to watch the story moving on or a girl stripping. And face it, you don't watch it for the acting of the girls. Raven (Barbara Nedeljakova of Hostel fame) just is as wooden as it is. She's a joy for the eye and I met her in the flesh when she was in Hostel but here, no can do. There's a bit of funny situations going on, like for example the dead body in the trunk and the strippers thinking they are seeing a woody, or when one of the guys is peeping tom and jerking off when one of the girls do go full frontal. And here you have it, the story isn't what it's all about. You just watch it for the scantily clad girls. It's so rare that some actors aren't beginners and delivered good stuff on other flicks or series but here I just don't know what it is. I could take the comic book images and the split screen. As hyped as it was, it was forgotten before it came out. The comedy didn't work and for a British flick that's really hard because they know how to do it. And for the horror....well, there wasn't any. The only acting you will see is between Robert Englund and Billy Murray, and Bill with Sarah Douglas sadly only 2 minutes in this turkey. And talking about turkeys and Robert, it reminded me of Zombie Strippers (2008). Do I need to say more?Gore 1/5 Nudity 2,5/5 Effects 2/5 Story 2/5 Comedy 0/5

I loved this film not just that its British but it had all the soaps intermingled, Eastenders, Emmerdale and Hollyoaks.It starts with Martin Kemp (Steve from Eastenders) watching Adele Silva (Kelly from Emmerdale) giving him a lap dance, however he starts to change into a werewolf as he gets aroused and the poor girl stabs him in the eye with a silver pen (nice one).The owner of the bar comes through and sees the mess and tells one of her heavies to get rid of him, meanwhile somewhere in London a group of men who are werewolves get suspicious of their mate who by now is missing.Adele Silva's character is going out with one of these men and unbeknown to her is a werewolf! The rest of the film is the girls in the club having to fight these wolves off and kill them.Its a good watch and it may not be a US blockbuster but I think its great with great music score.
