MyAnimal Review: Castel’s Steamy, Stylistic Debut Is Uneven [Sundance] Sundance2023

Jacqueline Castel, award-winning director and screenwriter, returned to the Sundance Film Festival to premiere a new take on a classic werewolf tale in My Animal. The film stars Bobbi Salvör Menuez as Heather, the redheaded social misfit whose animalistic transformation during a full moon keeps her as a prisoner in her own life. The screenplay, written by Jae Matthews, focuses on the human elements of connection, sexuality, and freedom.

Even though her werewolf identity is at the core of her isolation, Matthews’ screenplay offers limited moments to examine this side of Heather save a few times in which she handcuffs herself to the bed. It isn’t until the film’s ending that an angered Heather allows herself to literally let loose and transform completely.
