Cursed is a horror movie that doesn't take itself too seriously. It's not very scary and it has some pretty ridiculous moments, but, overall, I thought it was entertaining. What can I say? I like werewolves.

I believe the movie Cursed is not a bad film. It takes a very stylized unique approach. It mixes an old horror film genre, with a new modern day look. I believe the film received negative reviews because at the time a majority of audience members didn't understand what this film was trying to accomplish. Cursed is a film straight out of the late 1970s. It captures the unique look and sense of a movie from that era, from its cinematography, to the feel of its script. Like the Scream movies, Cursed is a PG-13 horror flick, aimed at the same teenage audience it portrays on screen. Slashers like Craven's previous stalkers Ghostface or Freddy Krueger are out (although Krueger does make an amusing brief background appearance). This time the subject matter is werewolves. Brother and sister Ellie, played by Christina Ricci (Addams Family Values, Black Snake Moan) and Jimmy, played by Jesse Eisenberg (The Social Network, Adventure land) are driving home one evening when something hits their car, causing them to spin out of control and hit another vehicle, driven by Becky, played by Shannon Elizabeth (God I miss Shannon Elizabeth). As they attempt to save Becky, trapped within her car, a monstrous form rips her free, killing Becky and injuring Ellie and Jimmy. Who let the dogs out? (Damn that was a bad pun LOL) (It's a fu#kin' Werewolf people!)This may not be Wes Craven's best film; however, it is still entertaining to some level. Screenwriter Kevin Williamson (Scream) and Wes Craven still work well together. The story does get a little predictable, and the characters are paper thin (not well rounded, or unique) Jimmy is a stereotypical geek that we've seen over and over again. Plus, I know Christina Ricci is a much better actress than what she is given to do in this film.I do believe some effort went into this film. My biggest issue is I just didn't find it to be scary, and honestly some parts are a little dull. With some rewrites, the story could have had better scares, more suspense, tension, better character development and more. So these are my final Bitchin' Buddha thoughts on Cursed. The movie knows its audience. It is a decent, fun, watchable B movie. If you enjoy those, you might enjoy this. I do believe this film could have been much better with some rewrites. I believe the film cursed earns a…6/10This review is brought to you by Boogie Buddha, and remember, don't just get down, but get Boogie. Thank you for reading/viewing, and I hope you have an amazing day as always. :)

I have a very personal connection with this movie, this was the absolute first horror movie. I liked the actors and wanted I start with something not too scary, which looking at it now as a very big horror person is a problem, not very scary. I do like the characters very much and I'm sorry but I find Jesse Eisenberg very attractive in this movie. I like the funny elements in this film and the side characters are very enjoyable as well. I do feel this movie could have pushed the limit a little bit more and been a bit more violent or gruesome, for a Wes Craven movie I thought they were kind of playing it safe. Still I enjoyed the end and I really enjoyed how Eisenberg's and Ricci's got super confident in themselves was a good touch. All in all it is not a great but it is enjoyable

After surviving a serious car accident, a woman and her brother find themselves undergoing a strange change that leads them to believe they've become werewolves and begin hunting down the one who turned them into the creatures.This one was quite the enjoyable and underrated werewolf effort. What really works for this one is the rather well-down build-up here of the discovery of their powers and condition, affecting each one differently. Allowing her to do better at her job by standing up for herself and tell off her co-workers is a part of this, while the behavior changes are more than enough to give an idea of the change. That comes even further into play when he gets a chance to prove himself a lot more notably with the change in confidence and the change to utilize his enhanced skill- set against his classmates that this one really gets a lot to like about this setup. That's what allows the action here to get the really enjoyable parts from this as these are quite fun all starting with the initial car crash here. The violence of the impact and then rolling down the hill, the race to free the trapped driver and the attack which gets them involved is quite fun and really has a lot going for it as it sets the stage for the later attacks here. The parking garage encounter is certainly fun with a great gimmick of trying to get to safety with the creature trashing car alarms during the stalking as it gets pretty suspenseful at times, and a later scene at the house trying to escape the now-infected dog makes for some decent times here. Still, the films is centered around two big action scenes here as the first one is the big confrontation at the nightclub opening which serves as a fine culmination of the different series of action here with the chilling House of Mirrors stalking, the multitude of brawling in the different rooms against both the human and werewolf forms before getting a great conclusion to it all, and finally the ending brawl here which gets them the chance to really let loose and really force along some great parts taking advantage of their powers. As well with the great practical werewolf look, these here are the positives to make this good enough to overcome the few flaws. These are mostly centered around the film's rather conflicting werewolf here, which is distracting not only with the behavior changes to suit the scenes themselves, going from toying with hated prey to viciously taking out the insignificant victims, and there's a lot to said for the CGI wolf scenes here utilized for scenes that shouldn't be in the first place. The other issue here is the tameness of thee whole affair, really in terms of the kills here which seems like they're far more brutal than what's shown here as this one censors itself way too much. Otherwise, this one was a lot of fun.Rated PG-13: Violence and some Language.
