| Late Phases | comment |
Late Phases is a 2014 horror drama film starring Nick Damuci, Ethan Embry, Tina Louise, Lance Guest, Rutanya Alda, Tom Noonan, and Larry Fessenden.Ambrose, a blind Vietnam War veteran who is independent and sometimes rude moves into a retirement community, at the edge of a forest. That same night, his neighbor Delores, who shares the duplex with him and who is the only one to whom he has been friendly from the start, is attacked and brutally slashed to death. Ambrose hears the commotion and is also attacked by a massive werewolf. During the attack, his beloved seeing-eye dog dies after bravely defending Ambrose.Despite his blindness, Ambrose sets out to put together the clues both from his remaining working senses and from information given to him by other people. He understands that what attacked him and killed his neighbor was not a bear or a puma, but a werewolf, and that he has exactly one month to prepare himself for the next attack while, in the meantime, fixing the broken relationship with his son. | |

And Then John Was a Zombie | |
| Late Phases / int_115d318 | comment |
And Then John Was a Zombie: Averted. Knowing that he's likely to be bitten and become a werewolf even if he survives the battle, Ambrose opts to overdose on his medication before the final battle and guarantee he won't survive the night. | |

Resist the Beast | |
| Late Phases / int_1231e49d | comment |
Resist the Beast: zigzagged. Griffin desperately asks Father Roger for help, believing himself to be possessed, and even self-flagellates to drive it out. On the other hand, he—in both human and werewolf form—bites others to make more werewolves. | |

Wrong Genre Savvy | |
| Late Phases / int_20a14df0 | comment |
Wrong Genre Savvy: Westmark the gunsmith, when asked why he thinks Ambrose is buying bullets doesn't seem to consider the werewolf angle, just commenting it reminds him of The Lone Ranger and the image of a Vigilante Man with the symbolism of purity in the silver. While the vigilante part is right, Ambrose is dismissive of the symbolism aspect. | |

| Late Phases / int_21af4dc3 | comment |
Heroic Dog: Ambrose's German Shepherd. It starts growling at Ambrose to keep him away from the room where the werewolf is, and then attacks again and again the beast, which has just proved to be so strong to be almost able to punch through walls, to protect his master. | |

Kick the Dog: Ambrose is incredibly rude to Clarissa, Gloria and Vitoria the three greeters when they arrive, and as a result they get pretty sour towards him afterwards (especially after he accidentally unplug one of their husbands iron lung in his search for the werewolf). | |

Police Are Useless | |
| Late Phases / int_59907e4f | comment |
Police Are Useless: Apparently, once a month a person is brutally and viciously slashed to death in the retirement community of Crescent Bay. All they do is saying to stay far away from the forest and to close accurately the entrance door. The fact that the first person we see killed was killed after the werewolf broke in bursting through the closed entrance door and that the beast a first time almost breaks in Ambrose's house through a damn wall removes any doubt about the utility of these advices. | |

Good All Along: Father Roger. In spite of some conversations with Ambrose, where the pastor talks about how he put his evil side in a cage, and other apparent clues, he was a very well meaning person, trying to help everyone. Including both Ambrose and the real werewolf. | |

Tragic Monster | |
| Late Phases / int_e35bc0f7 | comment |
Tragic Monster: Played with. James was trying to protect his community when he went out to hunt the first werewolf terrorizing the place and got infected. Additionally, he inflicts Self-Harm on himself for what he does as a werewolf and seeks help from his Priest. However, towards the end, he doesn't come off too sympathetic anymore as he deliberately goes around infecting people in his human form to make more werewolves. He also lures Father Roger, the man he respects, over to his place, and kills his Priest as a werewolf after Father Roger doesn't give him the absolution he craves. | |
