Strippers vs. Werewolves opens in a nightclub where Justice (Adele Silva) is doing a strip-tease for Mickey (Martin Kemp), when the man sprouts fur and big ears (which stick straight out to the side). Terrified, Justice stabs the man in the eye with a silver fountain pen, killing him. As it turns out, Mickey was a werewolf and the other wolves in his pack soon discover that he’s missing. When they find his body, they are able to trace it back to the strip club. Meanwhile, Justice has yet to reveal her profession to her boyfriend, Scott (Martin Compston). That’s OK, as Scott hasn’t told Justice that he’s a werewolf and that he’s trying to find Mickey’s killer. Stripper Raven (Barbara Nedeljakova) has been dating occult investigator Sinclair (Simon Phillips), but he’s little help. Fortunately, club owner Jeanette (Sarah Douglas) and bartender Harry (Alan Ford) have experience with werewolves, so as the pack prepares to attack, the strippers arm themselves to fight back.

Strippers vs. Werewolves opens with Duran Duran’s classic song “Hungry Like the Wolf” and I thought to myself, “Getting the rights to that probably killed the budget.” And I think I was right. The movie has a slick look, but that’s where any element of value ends. The bulk of the film takes place in the “Vixens” club, with the other scenes having been shot in the street or in locations where we don’t get many wide shots. However, not looking expensive, is the least of the worries here.

For starters, the story is very limited. Granted, the movie lives up to its title, but it barely goes beyond that. Justice kills Mickey, the werewolves want revenge, and a fight happens. That’s about it for the storyline. The movie tries to pad its running time by delving into the lives of the strippers. Along with the relationships between Raven and Sinclair and Scott and Justice, we also have a side-story where the bouncer at Vixens is attracted to one of the strippers. As for the werewolves, they are portrayed as ordinary gangsters and thugs who just happen to sprout make special effects makeup at times. Well...some of them do, apparently there wasn’t enough money to make everybody a werewolf or some actors refused, but the gang is made up of werewolves and werewolves-in-name-only. I can’t believe that it took two people to write this. The movie contains only one plot twist -- the Justice and Scott thing -- and only one somewhat unique idea.

The weirdest thing about Strippers vs. Werewolves is the pacing. Not only does the story feel like it’s been padded, the movie chooses to cut back and forth between these various stories at the oddest times. On top of that, the scenes, even the action scenes, feel like there is one too many beats between each action. It’s as if the editor didn’t want things to be too quick-cut, so a few frames were left on the tail end of each shot. Because of this, the movie never gains any momentum and the entire thing feels like a series of stops and starts.

Strippers vs. Werewolves actually trots out more than one “Little Red Riding Hood” jokes on Blu-ray Disc courtesy of Well Go USA. The film has been letterboxed at 2.35:1 and Disc contains an AVC 1080p HD transfer which runs at an average of 24 Mbps. The image is sharp and clear, showing on distracting grain and no defects from the source materials. The colors look good, most notably reds, but the image is a bit dark at times. The level of detail is good (well, for us, not for the actresses) and the depth is acceptable. The Disc carries a DTS-HD Master Audio track which runs at 48 kHz and an average of 2.0 Mbps. The track provides clear dialogue and sound effects. The movie is filled wall-to-wall with techno and dance music, much of which doesn’t match the action, which fills the speakers and gives the subwoofer a workout. The surround sound effects in the club and during the finale are fine and we get a few nice stereo effects.

The Strippers vs. Werewolves Blu-ray Disc contains only three extras. We begin with an AUDIO COMMENTARY from Producers Jonathan Sothsott and Simon Phillips. "Behind the Scenes" (11 minutes) contains interviews with the cast and producers. Each actor takes describing their character and this takes up half of the running time of the piece. From there, we get a look at the special effects makeup and what condition were like on-set. The final extra is the ORIGINAL TRAILER for the film.
