Is Into the Dark: Crawlers a TV show or film im confused

Looks like a show

https://www.imdb.com/title/tt11814788/?ref_=ttep_ep6

Roger Ebert reviewed it as a film

That can't be right, Roger Ebert died in 2013 while this episode aired this year

It's 90 minutes, I'm fine with it counting.

I think other reviewers use his name as the name of their Website

[DancesWithWerewolves]

Watching Nightmare At Noon, and still laughing to myself that it involves Wings Hauser and Bo Hopkins once again stuck in a small town where the locals are tainted by nearby chemicals (and swears its not a sequel to Mutant). Kimberly Beck is in it, and I wasn't expecting that rack on her either

According to IMDB's trivia, it claims to be a loose remake of Mutant. Weird it would do that with two of the same actors in such a short time period :/

Its stupid

[DancesWithWerewolves]

I feel like the whole second half has gone into action-movie schlock. Which, I'm not complaining, but was expecting it to be more town-gone-mad than what we got.

crucify feels like it would be better as a series of music videos (with different music), rather than a movie...

[DancesWithWerewolves]

Getting ready to watch Wolf of Snow Hollow. Letting it spool for a bit since it plays faster than it loads.

Any enjoyment I get from some really creepy scenes are counteracted by long stretches of absolutely nothing happening

[DancesWithWerewolves]

While I am liking this thus far, I feel like it could've been better had Robert Forster's character been the lead protagonist, rather than a supporting role of a retiring cop. Maybe that's just me thinking it would be more interesting if it followed the trope of a retiring cop working their last case, but the guy who is the lead is kind of a jerk. He's occasionally funny (he also wrote and directed the movie, so I understand he designed it for himself), but hard to root for him. I wonder if Robert actually had the issues his character has in the movie (difficulty moving around/standing, needing to do so for show for the rest of the police force).

The quick glimpses of the wolf suit is pretty good too.

If this turns out to just be a guy in a suit again...

[DancesWithWerewolves]

Yep, it pulled an Amber Heard and shit the bed by just being a guy in a suit. Motherfucker...

I was going to say you've seen something like this before back when you asked my thoughts, but figured that would spoil things.

Yeah, I think now this kind of twist deserves to be spoiled

If they dwelled on the killer psychologically thinking he was a werewolf (like actual lycanthrope), I'd give it a pass, but since they didn't do squat, I nixed it from Full Mooner count.

[DancesWithWerewolves]

Think I might watch Wer just to see a Martin version of a werewolf movie done right, where it really sits on Lycanthrope as a mental disease (I've seen it before, once). Originally I was going to leave it off, but now there's a void on my list

Not a very good film so far but plenty of nudity

Nice combination of sleaze and shittiness to make it worth watching
