After
in-fighting within the pack, losses, Scott must find a way to reunite
his pack. Beacon Hill has become a battle ground for the
supernatural, chimeras, hell hounds, banshees, clockwork mad
scientists, and more... But all that gets placed on the back burner
when an ancient werewolf know as 'The Beast' appears and has no
discrimination to who or whatever it kills in Teen Wolf: Season 5,
Part 2 (2016).
Scott
is the alpha wolf among his pack, but there has been challenges and
questions about his leadership of late when his own pack turns
against him. Adding to the chaos is the power hungry Theo, leader of
a group of newly created chimeras. But behind the Chimeras are the
Dread Doctors, a mysterious group of para-science steampunk
scientists who specializes and manipulates supernatural creatures and
forces in order to extend their lives with immortality. However,
when the Dread Doctors resurrect "The Beast" an invincible
killing machine and losses control, old enemies must become allies in
order to stop this ancient horror.
Teen
Wolf continues to be a werewolf utopia, it is all about who is
the alpha wolf/leader of the pack and the politics of werewolves
involving tooth, claws and fangs. More often the characters remain
in half werewolf mode instead of a full body change. The series is
about how the characters survive from other supernatural
creatures/packs or to keep their secret hidden from the 'normal'
people (which begs to question why haven't MORE people noticed
werewolves in their town) but may be winding up soon.
The
anamorphically enhanced 1.78 X 1 and lossy Dolby Digital 5.1 mixes
are as good ads they can get for the format, with some aspects of
both demo-like for DVD. Extras includes a poster and Ultimate
Dread - The Creatures of Season 5.
