A pretty fresh take on the traditional werewolf horror subgenre. I absolutely loved it. This period gothic/folk horror is enthralling, bloody, and grotesque. It gets off to a good start by launching into full terror mode right off the bat, with a story that hooked me from beginning to end. There's a good amount of violence and gore and some decent monster action, and the look of the actual monster is also very unique. The visual flair is very strong in this one. It is dark and gloomy, boasting a great atmosphere and some sinister imagery that keeps dread simmering on the stove, with a few well-executed jump scares that are genuinely surprising. The visual effects and body horror makeup are simply amazing. Excellent stuff and a nice twist on tiring subgenre is always appreciated. They should’ve kept Eight for Silver as the title for wide release.
