Love Bite review

A werewolf-com that’s more howler than Howling

Why you can trust GamesRadar+ Our experts review games, movies and tech over countless hours, so you can choose the best for you. Find out more about our reviews policy.

A host of Brit TV faces assemble for this horror-comedy barrel-scraper that’s part Inbetweeners , part Dog Soldiers gone to the dogs.

Ed Speleers is the teenager trying to romance American blogger Jessica Szohr, whose party piece is swallowing bananas and who’s reluctant to go out while there's a full moon….

It’s a long 35 minutes until the bodies start appearing, during which the film relies on sixth-form knob gags and Timothy Spall eating scenery as a riddle-spouting wolf slayer.

Forget any traces of werewolf credibility - watch this only for Robert Pugh as a copper trying to bring Met tactics to Herne Bay.
