Ashley McKenzie’s Werewolf is one of the best Canadian films in years — a nervy, visually inventive drama about two young addicts spending a merciless East Coast summer on a methadone program. It premiered at last year’s TIFF, earned Ashley the TFCA’s Jay Scott Prize in December and landed on Canada’s Top Ten in January. It opened theatrically against Wonder Woman, so you probably missed it.

Anyway, if you’re in Toronto you can catch up to it tonight at the Regent Park Film Festival, where I’ll be conducting a post-screening conversation with Ashley and one of her stars, the amazing Bhreagh MacNeil. This will be a fine way to see the film, if I do say so myself — and admission is free! Just reserve a ticket here, or take your chances at the door.

Oh, and also I wrote a thing for the NOW site about the TIFF movies already available on various streaming services just two months after the end of the festival. The kids love streaming things.
