Werewolf stories are the perfect match for period

Werewolf stories are the perfect match for period horror films, and the atmospheric, moody, and gory “Eight for Silver” feels like a game changer for the genre. Set in the 1800s, this historical-minded tale about a creature terrorizing a small village is well acted, visually stunning, beautifully directed, and is one of the most sophisticated monster movies I’ve seen in a long while. Seamus Laurent (Alistair Petrie) is a callous land baron who is in a dispute with a group of Romani people who lay claim to one of his parcels. Unable and unwilling to reach a peaceful agreement, Seamus orders their execution, only to be met with the promise that a curse will be unleashed on his family. The man shrugs it off until the townspeople begin having the same terrifying nightmare. When boy is murdered by a suspected wild animal and his own son goes missing, Seamus calls on the services of a pathologist (Boyd Holbrook), who is certain there’s something much more evil in the woods. This gothic horror tale is stunning across the board. There’s plenty of bloody carnage that will appease traditional horror fans, as well as more subtle, sophisticated touches the utilize elements like wind, fog, shadows, and the use of candlelight to craft an eerie atmosphere. The film could do without the handful of cheap jump scares, but they don’t take away from the strength of the finished product.

Eight for Silver

I wished they never changed the original title, Eight for Silver. That name had a unique identity of its own.

An aesthetically pleasing horror drama, beautiful locations, peak cinematography, talented actors, a proper budget, brilliantly written and directed, realistic brutal scenes with outstanding performances.

A unique take on lycanthropy that never ever seen before. I would've rated more if Sean Ellis carried the same momentum he had until the final act.
