"Tomb of the Werewolf" is a lightweight, mostly uninteresting softcore movie that occasionally remembers it is supposed to be a horror flick.It was apparently the last time Naschy played his Waldemar Daninsky character, and I wish the movie could have given him a better send off. He's barely in it, and only pops up to kill people here and there as the hombre lobo. I really only watched it for Michelle Bauer, looking dead sexy in her forties. The problem is she plays a character suited for a horror movie, and this isn't one. Her ominous presence sticks out like a sore thumb among the completely forgettable, generically pretty softscore stalwarts that make up the rest of the cast.It was made by Fred Olen Ray, and it's at least not as bad as his other movies.
So far I have only seen 2 different Fred Olen Ray but I can already tell that he is absolutely one of the worst directors that is still working today. His movies are just so bad, that they are not even funny to watch.I can stand the occasional low budget horror-attempt and can take them for what they are but this is just too much to take. It's an insanely bad movie, that you shouldn't even watch to see how bad it is. Just take my word for it and don't even think about ever watching this.While watching this movie I even started noticing that I wasn't even paying attention to it, while I wasn't even doing anything else. It's just a completely uninteresting movie and I literally couldn't care about anything that was happening. I therefore also really can't tell what the story was about because I simply did not care. It's title might sound cool enough but really, this is not even a werewolf movie. If I have to classify this movie as anything, it would be as soft-core porn because it has a couple of lame attempts at nudity and sex sequences at it, that aren't even done well, not even from a soft-core porn perspective. Horror-wise there is absolutely nothing going on in this movie.It's an incredibly cheap looking movie. It's one of those films that has a TV look all over and if this movie cost anything above $1,000 to make, I would be very surprised. No serious money on the sets, effects, make-up or costumes got ever spend. Even the sound can be all messed up at times, when the actors don't speak closely enough into the camera's.The movie really doesn't flow well, which is due to its messy editing but also lacking directing. The movie also completely fails to feature some likable characters. All of the characters are basically extremely horrendous ones, that do absolutely nothing to make you like any of them. They do quite the opposite throughout this movie actually. I also really can't tell who was supposed to be the main character, or so to speak, 'hero' in this.Needless to say that the acting is also real horrible in this. They couldn't spend any money on the movie its visuals, so they of course also couldn't spend any on some decent enough actors. Actually funny to see that I start recognizing some of these actors who keep popping up in these absolutely horrible- and often soft-core porn, flicks.Do us all a favor and just give up, Fred Olen Ray. You even shouldn't be allowed to make movies in the first place with that sort of a name.1/10http://bobafett1138.blogspot.com/
WARNING! Do not be fooled by the fancy graphics on the DVD cover. It's a trap! Put this movie back on the shelf immediately! Proceed to the nearest bathroom, and wash your hands with a combination of gasoline and steel wool.This steaming pile is nothing more than a porn producer's attempt at making a horror movie. Think of Tomb of the Werewolf as a porno with "actors" wearing Halloween masks bought from their local hardware store. This production company should be hanged with a latex werewolf dildo, toot sweet! Note: I think there should be a federal law put into place. DVD covers should represent the actual content of their movies. The cover on this DVD is a case of pure fraud!
A man who recently inherited a European castle with a rumored hidden treasure invites the buxom crew from a television supernatural show to help him find the treasure. I said buxom crew, because, I believe, that is the whole point of this film. After pre-title sequence where our buxom villainies offers a buxom victim to a strangely-annoyed Lucifer, who appears via a bad special effect, we skip ahead a couple hundred years to the present day where the buxom host of the television show starts getting naked on the sofa with her producer boyfriend, and then . Wait a minute. Was I hitting on a subtle leitmotif? I decided to hit pause button and went to the trusty IMDb to see whether I was watching a horror movie or soft core porn. I was right to suspect the latter. It seems director Fred Olen Ray has done quite a bit of soft core. Oh well. Nothing wrong with that, unless you were hoping to see a horror movie and there wasn't any thing scary here unless you have an unnatural fear of breasts. Ray, however, is a true professional and he moves things along at a brisk pace, so it really doesn't matter too much if the level of acting fails to rise above that of soft core porn or if the 'action' music theme sounds like a refugee from a mid-90's video game. No thrills or scares here, but if you like breasts .
