Night of the Beast

About This Movie

Night of the Beast (2023) delivers a gritty atmosphere, capturing that small-town dread with its moody visuals. The transformation of James, played by Xavier Collazo, really stands out, blending practical effects with some nicely done CGI. You can feel the tension build as the pacing moves from eerie suspense to full-on chaos. It explores themes of inner demons and the struggle between humanity and the beast within. The performances are raw and engaging, particularly Collazo's as he navigates his character's descent into madness. There's a certain charm in its low-budget feel that provides a sense of nostalgia, reminiscent of classic creature features but with a modern twist. Definitely not your average werewolf flick.
