Review of Hybrid

Hybrid (2007 TV Movie)
2/10
Not a Werewolf flix. Barely Sci Fi. Runners might find inspiration though.

With the sound off this could be mistaken for a movie about a guy using the Native American technique of running with animals to train for a marathon.

Man loses eyesight, gets wolf eye transplant, begins acting wolf-ish. Weak ass tropes and lots of repetitive wolves in the wild trances/flashbacks follow. We've got the super rare steak eating scene. Some running with puppers. Seeing and hearing better. Biting people... with normal human teeth mind you. But no transformations. Just becoming super best buddies with a pack of wolves and loads of shirtless running.

The romance is forced and weird. The dialog is abysmal, every line is utterly forgettable. The villain is the military in its usual roll, you know the one, wanting to use scientific advancements for war. With some Native American schlocky mysticisms sprinkled liberally throughout. The ending seemed to drag on forever.

Does not, I repeat, does not fall into the so bad it's good category (which sucks because I live for those movies). I don't think it could even be saved by RiffTrax because there are just too many scenes of wolves running, him running, and nothing really happening besides running.
