Storyline

In accordance with the Navajos' legend, a thirteen year-old boy will finish with the curse of the powerful Skinwalkers, a.k.a. werewolves. The half-breed boy Timothy is raised by his human mother Rachel and protected by his Skinwalkers relatives since he was born. His grandmother Nana, his uncle Jonas, his cousin Katherine, her boyfriend Adam and their friend Doak have kept the secret about his bloodline and neither Timothy nor Rachel know the tragic curse. A couple of days before Timothy's thirteenth birthday, a pack of evil Skinwalkers that had tasted blood leaded by the evil Varek chases the boy while his family protects him.

Quotes

Varek: Don't make me do something I don't want to do. Join me. We're one and the same.
Jonas: I'm nothing like you.
Varek: I am what I was meant to be. You live a lie... we were wrong. I know what you're feeling, trust me.
Jonas: Trust you? You're killing fellow human beings.
Varek: I am NOT human. And I will not risk spending the rest of my days as one. Deseased and flawed... we're better than that.

User Reviews

This movie was only an hour and 20 minutes for a reason

Reading the plot for this movie got me really excited, and the preview helped confirm that. I was HEVILY disappointed in this film! While the idea was good, this movie just dragged on and on and on. I laughed after I looked at the short running time once the movie was over. Watching this was almost like watching a 90s jean claud van dam movie or something. Cheesy dialog as well as action. Thats right the fight scenes weren't even good! What I did like a lot about this movie ws the cinematography, it was excellent. The Idea in intself still is pretty cool, it just wasn't done very well. This movie was almost like 90s jean claud van dam movie meets john carpenters vampires. In fact if you haven't seen Joh Carpenters Vampires go watch that instead haha.
