'Red Moon' finally delivers a Soviet submarine werewolf we can all love

If Wes Anderson and Modest Mouse collaborated to create an indie movie about life as a Russian werewolf submarine commander, it would likely look like Red Moon. Created by Sirocco Research Labs, the quirky and lovely movie chronicles "the life and times of famed Soviet submarine commander, and hapless werewolf, Captain Alexei Ovechkin" who lives under the seas to control his lycanthropy. But when the Americans come a-calling is forced to return to his beastly ways. Red Moon is a charming treat with a fresh, unorthodox take on the genre, and it's worth 15 minutes of your time.
