2/10
Lost Boys meets Howling

Warning: Spoilers
Both pretty good movies for their time and Hyenas was possibly just as cheesy but was not impressed with the CGI of Hyenas which actually looked and acted more like werewolves. I was disappointed when I found out there were no actual Hyenas in the movie at all.... some scenes of the "Hyenas" were shot so far off that you could tell they were just some German Shepards running around or so up close and choppy that you couldn't make out quite what it was...

Towards the end of the film it was finally verified that in fact the "Hyenas" were actually humans that transform in to first a werewolf looking thing and then at the end a full fledged CGI Hyena, not a real Hyena a Hyena on steroids, kind of like the wolves from Twilight.. in fact they may have been the wolves from twilight with stripes on them.

Another humorous element in this movie was the totally corny "Hyena laugh" that some of the actors were forced to do. I must say I was completely embarrassed for them as it was anything but scary.

I gave this movie 2 stars for claiming to be a movie about Hyenas and ending up being an illogical werewolf movie.
