WolfCop

WolfCop is a 2014 Canadian superhero film[2][3][4] written and directed by Lowell Dean, and starring Jesse Moss, Amy Matysio, Jonathan Cherry, Sarah Lind, Aidan Devine, Corrine Conley and Leo Fafard.

Lou Garou, an alcoholic cop in the small community of Woodhaven, spends most of his day either asleep at work or at Jessica's bar.

When his friend Willie Higgins phones in a complaint of occult activity in the area of his gun store, the police chief sends Garou to investigate.

When he arrives at the scene, Garou finds occultists in the middle of a ceremony to sacrifice an upstart politician who was running on a platform of reform and anti-corruption.

Garou and his partner, Tina, investigate the deaths at the bar and a series of seemingly unrelated armed robberies by a gang who wear pig masks.

However, when the police station receives a call for help, Garou, who has since transformed into a werewolf but has retained his human intelligence, dons his policeman's uniform and heads to the local supermarket, where the pig-mask gang have taken hostages.

The website's consensus reads: "There's a new sheriff in town, and this one bites: Wolfcop packs a silly punch with just enough fun to rip the laughter right out of you.

"[13] Leslie Felperin of The Guardian gave it a score of three out of five stars and wrote, "You can't help but warm to this old-school Canadian horror-comedy about a law enforcer with a snout for crime".

[14] Craig Anderson of Fangoria rated it four out of five stars, writing: "While Wolfcop does tend to overreach, and too-often falls back on its predictable buddy-cop formula splatstick shtick, it's still plenty fun".

[18] Radheyan Simonpillai, in his review of WolfCop for Now, summarized the film thus: "Aiming for so-bad-it's-good status, this derivative effort gets stuck in moderately bad.
