Lycan (2017) (USA)

aka Talbot County 

⭐️⭐️


A class project finds a small group of college kids in the middle of the Georgia woods “rediscovering a moment in history”. Said moment turns out to be a bit of local folklore involving the grave of Emily Burt, also known as the Talbot (nice) County werewolf. As these things go, it turns out there may be a little more to the legend. Some well composed shots can’t make up for the unearned pretension throughout the runtime. The music is hilariously intrusive and the acting ranges from adequate to bat-shit over the top. There’s a few likable things sprinkled throughout (Dania Ramirez being a scene-chewing vision of animalistic eroticism is the standout) but everything else feels empty and melodramatic.
