Howling V & VI Double Feature!,
By
This review is from: Howling V & VI (DVD)
Howling V - Good story... Strangers win a trip to a castle and they begin to die one by one. The music is great (Tho maybe a bit over the top... I actually really like it :P). The acting is bad, but you get used to it. The werewolf is never clearly seen and a lot is left to the imagination. Despite it's fallbacks I have to say that this is my fav Howling sequel.Howling 6 - The werewolf is the hero in this one... An interesting enough plot. It seemed sort of blah at times. The acting was okay (minus the preacher's daughter). The werewolf could have looked more wolflike... Still worth checking out if you enjoyed the sequels before. Edition: I have both versions of this disc... I recommend the Artisan release from 2003 if you can find it. Better picture, sound and cover art. My copy from Timeless Media came sealed, but the disc was still scratched up. The picture is grainy and the cover art is pretty shoddy - Why is the moon in front of the trees?

AWESOME Creature Double Feature!!!,

This review is from: Howling V & VI (DVD)
Howling V: The RebirthA handpicked group of American tourists have each won a trip to a Romanian castle that was closed down for 5 centuries. They arrive with their mysterious host Count Istvan, who further leads them into the dark corridors of mystery. As nightfalls, a blizzard blows into the countryside at full force, pinning them within the thick walls for the night. Then one of the tourists wanders off in curiosity and disappears. The others think little of the situation, knowing the wanderer probably just got lost. Then a few other disappear. One by one, the remaining tourists start getting paranoid of each other. Then they find the remains of one of the missing guests. Now they know that they're not alone. They're going to have to work together to stop this unseen and savage enemy who kills when the moon is full and pierces the night with a bloodcurdling howl. Howling VI: The Freaks Ian is a drifter, wandering from place to place. His latest stop is the small dusty town of Canton Bluff. Famous for it's orange orchards and short on its water supply, Canton Bluff has very little to offer Ian. Then he meets a preacher named Dewey and his lovely daughter Elizabeth who live in an old church Dewey's restoring. Dewey's deal for Ian is a bed in the attic and a fine home cooked meal, to which Ian agrees. Then the Carnival arrives in town. It's run by the strange but charming R.B Harker (Legendary Bruce Payne), who shares a dark past with Ian. RB Harker is also a dangerous and deadly vampire!! But Ian also has a dark secret of his own. By the light of the full moon, Ian takes shape into a creature of the night that screams for the full moon. This time (Since Howling III: The Marsupials) We get to root for the werewolf!! This is an example of a great compilation! This double feature DVD may not have any special features, but the treat of having both fine films (2 of my favorites!) on one disc is rewarding enough! I was overwhelmed with joy when I first got mine. At first I was not expecting much outta either films (But I'm a HUGE fan of werewolves) but MAN was I wrong! Both fine films deliver well on their ends! Note To Buyers: The Artisan Double Feature DVD of 'Howling V: The Rebirth & Howling VI The Freaks' May Be Rare and/or much more expensive because it's out of print, but the image quality is much cleaner and the soundtrack is much more crisp than that of the Timeless Media Group version. IF you can some how get your hands on the Artisan version, DO SO. My ratings: The Howling: 10/10 Howling II: 5/10 Howling III: 10/10 Howling IV: 3/10 Howling V: 9/10 Howling VI: 9/10 Buy It, Play It, Enjoy It!!

The Howling 5 & 6,
By alex - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: Howling V & VI (DVD)
I recommend The Howling 5 to anyone who loves the original Howling movie. It's atmospheric alot of suspense and set in a really old castle. Also you have to work out who is the werewolf which makes it even more fun. A real who done it movie only in this case it's a werewolf killer.The Howling 6: The freaks Well they were real freaks especially the vampire instead of having sharp teeth like most vampires do. They had to make him a little different yes he looks like a purple deamon when he transforms. I thought the movie was pretty good only they ruined it for me with having the vampire look like a deamon who's purple and also the ending but an understanding ending as well. I liked the actors no real big actors but that's always good in horror movies because you don't know who might die. Would I watch the movie again maybe in 5 or 6 years time. The howling 5 I'll watch again and again and will always find it an enjoyable movie. Beats the hell out of The howling 3 the cheapest crapest movie in the series which had promise but didn't deliver because bad production and a lack of direction really could have been something really good but made into a comedy that wasn't even funny. The Howling 4 is a absolute classic and I don't care what anyone says about it, It's a brillant movie with a great story and loads of action and scary bits very hard to pick out of The Howling and The Howling 4 only the werewolves are better in the first howling movie. But the ones in The Howling 4 suited the movie right down to the ground, A must see movie you shouldn't be disappointed just watch it it's a classic. 2 of 2 people found the following review helpful

The Howling.,
By Jose Lopez "Jose Lopez" - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: Howling V & VI (DVD)
The Howling V-The Rebirth is an HUGE Improvement over the last few Sequels which were all really bad. Part VI- I don't care much for but it's worth watching. The Howling V is more of a whodunit/clue type movie with not Much wolf just a creepy castle,but still worth watching.

"Werewolf?!?" "There wolf. There castle. There...carnival." "Enough. I get the movie reference.",

This review is from: Howling V & VI (DVD)
The tradition of Howling sequels having absolutely no relation to previous entries continues in this 2 movie set.In Part V: The Rebirth, a group of invited guests are brought to Budapest for the opening of a castle left abandoned for exactly 500 years. Chalked up as publicity for tourism by their host, it is not only revealed later on the actual reason for said reopening, but also how the unusual selection process was conducted to assemble the guests... A werewolf movie has to be pretty bad for Doc Noc not to like if it's set in a castle environment to boot. A good idea and setting, however, cannot overcome mostly stale acting, annoying background music used nearly every time another murder occurs and a pathetically short amount of werewolf screentime. 3.5/10 From Hungary to the small U.S. town of Canton Bluff we go in Part VI: The Freaks, where a newly arrived drifter with a British accent gets work as a handyman for an old church. Will the combination of a refurbished place of worship and the visiting Harker's World of Wonder carnival troupe provide enough of a boost for the drought inflicted town? Depends on their position on the subject of the supernatural... as well as their tolerance level on cattle mutilations and outright murder. At risk of sounding like a broken record, again we have a good idea and setting (Heck, we even have more than a werewolf on the monster menu! And no, I'm not referring to the Alligator Boy.) that is left lacking in the overall results. It is possibly the best Howling sequel since Part 2, but is that really saying much? 4.75/10 |
