So, 'Lycanimator' is this neat little horror flick from 2018 that really plays around with the mad scientist trope. It has that gritty atmosphere you’d expect from low-budget horror but somehow makes it work. The pacing might feel a bit uneven at times, but it ramps up tension nicely as things spiral out of control. The practical effects are a highlight; the transformation scenes have a raw, visceral quality that feels refreshing compared to all the CGI we see nowadays. The performances are pretty earnest too, which helps sell the absurdity of the plot. There’s this blend of humor and horror that feels unique, especially when the goo starts wreaking havoc. It’s definitely not your typical weekend getaway movie, that’s for sure.
