Another WolfCop – WolfCop Is Back With A New Hair-Raising Sequel

There has been a long line of monsters in horror films, but few are as hilarious as WolfCop aka Lou Garou, played by Leo Fafard. Soon, he will be back for another round of alcohol-guzzling, ass-kicking action. For those of you who somehow missed the 2014 horror-comedy, the film follows an alcoholic cop who realizes that after a series of strange events, he has become a werewolf. Hilarity ensues. Between ripping people apart, exploding penises, sleeping with a shapeshifter, taking down a drug-ring and a cult, WolfCop proves he is the perfect crime fighting creature, as long as he has a drink first. Two months after saving Woodhaven from a gang of evil reptilian shapeshifters, Lou Garou is finding it hard to keep a low profile. Instead, he roams the street at night, gleefully and violently disposing of criminals and stealing boxes of Liquor Donuts causing all sorts of problems for his former-partner-turned chief Tina (Amy Matysio). Things begin to

Ode to 80’s Horror: A Nightmare on Elm Street

In honor of Halloween approaching (everyone’s favorite holiday) and whispers of the second remake happening (Kevin Bacon, anyone?) this #Odeto80s is on that 1986 Wes Craven classic: A Nightmare on Elm Street. WHERE IT CAME FROM: Wes Craven had already had horror movie success when he read a series of disturbing articles in the newspaper: “It was a series of articles in the LA Times, three small articles about men from South East Asia, who were from immigrant families and had died in the middle of nightmares—and the paper never correlated them, never said, ‘Hey, we’ve had another story like this.” Crave took this horrifying premise and paired it with his own terrifying childhood memory of a creepy man that had come to his window , and put a red and green striped sweater on it to create Freddy Krueger. WHY WE LOVE IT: Nightmare is arguably Craven’s greatest work, leaving the audience feel unsafe: even in their sleep. Aside

In Wolf Cop we were introduced to Lou Garou (Leo Fafard), an alcohol chugging, lazy, small town cop.
