Alcoholic policeman Lou Garou (Leo Fafard) is turned into a werewolf by a cult of reptilian shape-shifters who, every 32 years, must drain the blood of a lycanthrope to enhance their powers. As its rather silly title and my above synopsis suggest, WolfCop is a film that sets out to be a whole load of cheesy B-movie fun, and in that it largely succeeds. From the lead character's stupidly apt name-Lou Garou is a truncation of loup-garou, French for werewolf-to the ridiculously OTT gore effects, to the sight of the werewolf cop pimping his ride and firing a machine gun, WolfCop is one hell of a daft film. Which also makes it one hell of an entertaining film. Once Lou has experienced his first transformation (which takes place while he is taking a leak, resulting in the unforgettable sight of his penis swelling to massive proportions before bursting open in all of its hairy glory), the blood flows thick and fast, with our unfortunate lycanthropic lawman cleaning up his home town, tearing the criminals apart rather than reading them their rights (funniest moment: a guy having his face ripped clean off!). WolfCop also finds time to tick the gratuitous nudity box, Lou indulging a spot of sexy action with buxom barmaid Jessica (Sarah Lind), before a fun final showdown that sees WolfCop settling the score against the reptilian shape-shifters, with a little help from tasty female deputy Tina (Amy Matysio).
