Over two years ago, my friends and I heard about this little movie called Skinwalkers, and since we're big werewolf fans, naturally, that alone got our interest. We heard that it was going to be put out by Lions Gate films, and the creatures were going to be made by Stan Winston. Everyone seemed gung-ho about it. And the interviews and articles came out and everyone was excited and that it was going to be story-driven, and character-driven, but still be a nice, hard, R-Rated movie. And we were so excited, and thought it would be a really good werewolf movie, since there hasnt been a really good werewolf movie in years. And we thought that since it was being put out by Lions Gate, plus having Stan Winston involved in the project, it would avoid becoming another Cursed.







And now, over two years later, this movie was delayed for no reason over, and over, its release date screwed up, its theater count cut in half, its rating changed and ruined, and the result is a movie that has been scorned by critics and moviegoers all over the place. This movie has been completely butchered; it's blatantly obvious that a lot of material has been cut out. After the suicidal theatrical release, I was hoping that Lions Gate would remedy this with the DVD release, since they have always been good with DVD releases, putting out unrated versions and adding bonus material.







Instead we got the badly-edited, badly-dubbed, PG-13 version, and were supposed to be happy that were getting a few deleted scenes as a bonus?



We just want a better version of the movie on the DVD, and at least one that's accurate about the film's running time. The back of the DVD says that the movie is 110 minutes, which equals an hour and fifty minutes, and instead it's an hour and thirty minutes.







I'm sick and tired of seeing werewolf movies time and time again get screwed over. Cursed, Blood & Chocolate, Skinwalkers in particular. Even Trick r Treat (not to spoil anything) has werewolves, and was coming out at a perfect time, with internet hype and tons of praise from screenings. Then Warner Bros. delayed the movie indefinitely. So many movies, even ones that do poorly at the box office, get unrated or director's cut, double dips, so why not a movie that has a trailer promoting its DVD release which includes scenes not in the movie or in the deleted scenes?
