I’m not bragging when I say I’ve reviewed more than 3,000 films in the past nine years. I’m simply stating a fact. Another
fact: In that time, I’ve covered close to 120 werewolf (and werewolf-related) films. This may be a small part of the whole,
but it’s a rather high percentage of the werewolf films that are out there. Accordingly, I like to think I’m something of
an authority on them, but there’s one that I’ve seen (twice, in fact) and never bothered to review, and that is 1995’s Project:
Metalbeast. (Actually, there are two if you count the same year’s Werewolf, but I’ve only ever seen the Mystery Science Theater
3000 version of it. No need to rake that one over the coals since it’s already been eviscerated so capably.) With this issue’s
theme in mind, I decided the thing to do was to review Project:
Metalbeast without the aid of Wikipedia or the IMDb. Any
inaccuracies in the following, therefore, are the fault of my imperfect memory and not due to any ill will toward the makers
of the film, whoever they are.

Love it when a movie makes such a strong impact on you that you can review it from memory
One look at Kenny and it’s clear why white tigers shouldn’t be bred.
Kenny was rescued in 2000 at around 2 years old. He was living in
filth at a private breeder in Arkansas, but because of his obvious
deformities he wasn’t pretty enough to sell and the breeder called
Turpentine Creek Wildlife Refuge to get rid of him.
“The gentleman that we rescued him from said he would constantly run
his face into the wall,” Emily McCormack, animal curator for Turpentine
Creek, told The Dodo. “But it was clear that that wasn’t the situation.”
Rather, it was apparent that Kenny’s looks were the unsurprising
result of the generations of inbreeding that go into creating white
tigers.
This blog is mostly so I can vent my feelings and share my interests. Other than that, I am nothing special.
If you don't like Left Wing political thought and philosophy, all things related to horror, the supernatural, the grotesque, guns or the strange, then get the fuck out. I just warned you.
