Reception
Response to this film was highly negative, with the biggest criticisms being its shortage of werewolves and the fact that, when one is seen, it is clearly an actor in a Halloween mask and furry arms. Another criticism was that scenes were taken straight from Howling IV: The Original Nightmare, Howling V: The Rebirth and Howling VI: The Freaks, drawing comparisons to a clip show. The "actors" were locals living in the small desert town where the film was shot, basically playing themselves sitting around telling jokes and drinking beer.

Famous quotes containing the word reception:
“To aim to convert a man by miracles is a profanation of the soul. A true conversion, a true Christ, is now, as always, to be made by the reception of beautiful sentiments.”
—Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)
“Aesthetic emotion puts man in a state favorable to the reception of erotic emotion.... Art is the accomplice of love. Take love away and there is no longer art.”
—Rémy De Gourmont (1858–1915)
“Satire is a sort of glass, wherein beholders do generally discover everybody’s face but their own; which is the chief reason for that kind of reception it meets in the world, and that so very few are offended with it.”
