| User ReviewBruce Bgreat title. creepy atmosphere and some solid kill scenes. unsure if the version i saw was cut or not |
| User Reviewpeter hits one muddled mess of a film its an italian horror , set in england thats been dubed into english, confuised? so am I. the plot line has got so many bloodly plot twists its more twisted than a phone cord. the theme tune and titles ( yes the version i have seen has its altanite tilte Ghoul in school right under werewolf in a girls dormitory) are so campy that it cause a huge contrast with the serious tone of the film. 4/10 the bad dubbing , campy theme song and stupid title ruined what could of been an above average were wolf movie. |
| User ReviewRebecca CDespite its low budget and strange mixing of dubbed languages, I still found myself feeling the need to watch it to the end. Considering this was a cheap purchase from Shopko in a large movie pack of Zombies, Vampires, and Werewolves, it proved to be just entertaining enough. Still, I can't quite give it a good review, because it was a very predictable ending and pretty bad acting in general. Between the poor wayward criminal antagonist, and her Dr. Love professor, I was lost to the real plot of the movie and why certain clues had such significance. Bottom Line: An interesting viewing, but not worth your time. 40% for intrigue |
| User ReviewSteve MWerewolf in a Girl's Dormitory (aka "Lycanthropus" and "Monster Among the Girls") Starring: Barbara Lass, Carl Schell, Curt Lowens, Maureen O'Conner, and Alan Collins Director: Paolo Heusch (or Richard Benson, depending on the source and cut of the film) Dr. Julian Olcott (Schell), a research physician who was drummed out of the medical profession for particularly embarrassing reasons is given a second chance at a career when he's hired as a science professor by the director (Lowens) of an isolated, minimum securty reform school for girls. Olcott arrives just in time for a series of brutal murders to begin, starting with the most slutty and industrious student at the school; not only was she selling her body to whoever had cash, but she was blackmailing at least one of her "customers." Olcott teams up with the best friend of the victim (Lass) to uncover the identity of the killer (who may or may not be the same person as the marauding werebest). "Werewolf in a Girl's Dormitory" isn't anywhere near as fun as the title sounds--although if the crew who made "My Vampire Lover" or "The Erotic Ghost" were to do a remake, I think it might be! :D ). The film is a nice attempt at updating the werewolf tale by giving it some strong sexual overtones (I the first victim is necessarily just killed through mauling, giving the behavior of the werewolf then and later), but the effort is ultimately doomed by a badly structured script that's entirely too talky. (The only thing they get right is when they reveal the identity of the werewolf... and even that gets botched with some unintentional comedy when a character is mauled, mauled again, and then mauled a third time in what feels more like a Monte Python sketch than a scene in a horror movie. The best part about this movie is Barbara Lass, who is not only gorgeous, but who also seems to have been an okay actress. Unfortunately, aside from a couple of nicely framed scenes and LOTS of unintentional comedy, there really isn't anything else that's worth mentioning here. (I suspect I may even be giving it a rating that's a tad too generous, because it triggered some ideas in my head for a werewolf project I am currently working on. I may well be giving the filmmakers too much credit, just becuase they so helpfully fed my imagination.) This film really is just for the viewers who are obsessed with werewolves. The rest of us should not bother. (There isn't even any skin on display here!) |
| User ReviewAllan COkay, Italian horror film suffers from bad dubbing and a slow pace. The plot of a werewolf stalking a girls dormitory might have been okay, which included subplots of blackmail and secret love letters, but it unfolds at a far too leisurely of pace and the scares are far and few between. I was also disappointed that the film was not nearly as salacious at the title would suggest. Don't bother with this on and stick with Jack Hill or Edward D. Wood Jr. films for more scandalous of cheesy horror films of the 60s. |
| User ReviewStéphane BExtremely low budget, poorly acted, terribly directed and it has an awful score. Cheap Italian garbage. |
