Uncaged
(2015/RLJ DVD)
Picture:
B- Sound: B- Extras: C+ Film: C
An
interesting modern take on the Werewolf genre, Uncaged
(2015) centers around a teen who figures out he's a werewolf... so he
straps a Go-Pro Camera to his head and sees proof that he is indeed a
teen wolf (pun intended). Directed by Daniel Robbins, the film has
so-so special effects, decent gore, and a young cast led by Ben Getz
that aren't so bad either. While not as charming or fun as Wolf
Cop
(reviewed elsewhere on this site), Uncaged
is a decent watch if you like modern werewolf films.
A
teen (Ben Getz) gets tired of his disruptive sleepwalking habits and
affixes a camera to himself to discover the real reason behind this
nightly event, only to discover a disturbing secret.
Presented
in standard definition with an anamorphic widescreen aspect ratio of
1.85:1 and a lossy Dolby Digital 5.1 track, the film looks and sounds
fine on DVD but could benefit to a high def upgrade. Extras include
a commentary with cast and crew and ''howlingly funny film
outtakes.''
