Review of Alpha Wolf

Alpha Wolf (2018)
3/10
A Decent Film Until the Final 30 Minutes
24 August 2021
This film begins with two hunters out in the woods late at night when they hear a growling noise nearby. Not being very intelligent they decide to disregard it and continue along their way. Neither of them live to see the morning sunrise. The scene then shifts to a young man named "Jack Lupo" (Casper Van Diem) his wife "Virginia Lupo" (Jennifer Wenger) driving along a winding road looking to spend some time together in a remote cabin in the woods. Along the way they stop at a small country store where Jack proceeds to ogle one of the female customers and almost start a fight with another man. Although Virginia doesn't care for his alpha male tendencies they eventually make up that night at the cabin only to be attacked by a large animal not long afterward. The very next day Jack begins to act rather strange and it's then that Virginia begins to realize the type of person she has recently married. Now rather than reveal any more I will just say that I really enjoyed this movie up until the last 30 minutes or so when the plot took a definite turn for the worst and everything came crashing down immediately afterward. To that effect, I'm not sure what the director (Kevin VanHook) was thinking but perhaps he should find another line of work because his decision-making skills in the motion picture industry are definitely in need of some serious improvement. That being said, I have rated this movie accordingly. Below average.
