To me, this movie is perfection.

So much average

The performances transcend the film's tropes, grounding it in characters that feel more complete than this subgenre often produces.

I cannot think of one single thing that I would change about this film. The acting is incomparable, the directing deft, and the writing poignantly brilliant.

Hoping to use a spur-of-the-moment camping trip to win his dream-girl, a couple of friends tag along and stumble upon an abandoned mining town that serves as the home to a pack of vicious, killer wolves, forcing them to fight off the creatures to get away alive.This was a somewhat decent effort here that does have some rather enjoyable aspects. One of the few good parts to this one is the creepy ghost-town setting in here that gives this one some great elements due to that as the film gets quite a lot of work with the setting of the film. There's some good use of the familiar image here with the long dirt roads, dusty trails and wooden storefronts that evokes so many classic westerns which makes for the great reversal being in such territory while giving this one some rather nicely-designed setting here. There's a lot of time on the action here, especially in the second half where the group is trapped in the saloon and really feeling as though there's little hope of getting out as the relentless attacks to get past their lines make for quite a fun time with all these exciting scenes all packed together into an incredibly frantic pace. The other impressive part here is the rather clever twist to make the creatures plain old wolves, which was pretty unique as the early set-ups here pointed directly at werewolves being involved so that change-up comes off rather nicely. While it's not a terrible film, there's some problems with this one. One of the biggest problems here is the fact that the film really can't do anything with the wolves to showcase their killing skills, relying on the concept of the numerous numbers within the pack constantly around them instead to generate the fear, which drastically reduces their fearfulness. There's so few attacks here as the vast majority of its running time is spent on their relationship troubles and exploration of the town that it feels pretty dragged out in spaces and moves along at such lame paces and because there's not a lot that can be done here that this leaves so much of the film devoid of wolf attacks. Also problematic for this section is that there's such a small body count of potential victims there's hardly a chance for this to succeed because of the lowered chance of getting anything to happen to this small group. The other real flaw to this one is in fact the change-over of the creatures from werewolves to plain wolves that really comes off as quite a shock with the new creatures here being quite a cheat from what's to be expected that it becomes a rather irritating point. This is what's really holding this one down though the other problems are just as big.Rated R: Graphic Language, Violence and violence-against-animals.

I agree with portions of some other reviewers. The attack scenes are really poorly done and so is the camera work. The acting is decent since the writing is poor. A frontier town from the late 1800's but it had a tractor? Levi Fiehler plays a super wuss named Kyle. He not only acts it well but looks the part too. Man I tell you if these wolves really existed they would need to be found because they are super geniuses. They know to rip out a chunk of ignition wiring so not only won't the car start but there is not enough wire left to splice them together. They also steal bags from vehicles thereby taking any supplies that might help the humans survive. There are hardly any verified wolf attacks on humans yet these wolves ancestors (unless they are immortal) wiped out a town of 150 settlers armed with lever action rifles. I don't think so!!! It is to bad Ben dies from an attack. I liked his character's character. Hey how about the one wolf that comes down from the second story (guess they can climb too), at least it gets killed and that ain't too smart on its part, must not have been one of the smarter ones, huh? At least Rob has some cajones and comes up plans while Kyle just plays the wuss until the end. When the three get stuck in a room that is suppose to be the wolves lair there are bones all over it and they are all human. Now I am not a animal expert but not many animals will litter their den with food debris, it can bring other predators to the scene and if there is a litter that is alone, voila, easy pickings!!! Since this is a ghost town there should not be many visitors yet the wolves can kill enough humans to survive without taking their natural prey such as deer and this doesn't cause any concerns with the local authorities? Even one missing person will bring a huge man hunt. Rob turns out not to be so smart when he calls them stupid dogs that don't even know they left. Whoops he dies. Kyle finally grows a pair at the end and saves the day. All in all this another movie that makes me ask the question why was it made? Ah well another wasted hour plus.

I wanted to see a vicious pack of wolves destroy some humans. Sadly, that didn't happen. 1) The "wolves" were just a bunch of dogs... I guess the director didn't want to waste his time getting real wolves. I don't see how wolves are that much harder to train or more expensive than bears (since that director made a different movie about a killer bear) .. If you can get a bear for another movie, you should be able to get real wolves! I didn't rent this movie to see dogs. I rented it to see WOLVES! 2) ALL the attack scenes were horrible. I don't have very high standards for animal attacks, but this movie really crossed the line. If you want to see real wolves (or at least CGI wolves, like in "The Grey"), Wolf Town is NOT the movie for you. The cover is extremely misleading. The "wolves" in the movie don't look like the wolves on the cover AT ALL. The "attack" scenes don't even deserve to be called that. This movie is a movie about teens running away from wolfy-looking dogs. The action is lame. This movie is NOT worth your money and especially not worth your time.

I can handle the whole cliché thing, and I can usually even enjoy a lower budget movie from time to time, but this movie gives a whole new meaning to the word "low-budget".The wolf attack scenes are almost laughable. The camera simply changes angles and cuts to different areas that it is impossible to even see what is happening.The acting isn't terrible, although what the writers have the actors doing is quite ridiculous. They just wander about the town, going off by themselves from time to time, often for no reason at all. It just seems as though someone was too lazy to come up with even a half-decent plot line.I really feel this movie was not even worth the $1.20 that I paid to rent it from a RedBox.
