But Will It Be As Good As Deep Blue Sea?

According to Ain't It Cool, by way of Variety, Renny Harlin's directing a movie about space werewolves. Yeah, werewolves. In outer space.

I never thought I'd say this, but werewolves are officially overused as movie monsters for the time being. Harry Potter and the Prisoner of Azkaban this year used them well, as did the original Ginger Snaps, but enough is enough. Twin disappointments Van Helsing and Dog Soldiers have kind of killed off my interest in the sub-genre for the time being, and I can't imagine another lycanthrope feature from The King of Overzealous Mediocrity Renny Harlin will do anything to reverse this sentiment.

And why would the werewolves be in outer space? Bitten by one of those everpresent space wolves? Is it possible that an astronaut could actually go through the entire Space Program without anyone at NASA discovering that he/she turns into a ravenous beast every time there's a full moon? In Apollo 13, they figure out Gary Sinise never had measles, for crissakes.

Okay, that being said, the softcore werewolf-themed feature Wolfhound includes some of the most atrocious acting I've ever seen. (I saw it for free on cable! I swear!) The cast is made of up several ex-Playmates who can barely recall their lines, let alone speak them with any measure of emotion. Check out at IMDB here.
