''Are We Monsters'' is a British fantasy drama film released in 2022 by Seb Cox films.

After losing her mother in a monster infested woodland, an inexperienced werewolf seeks guidance from a folklore enthusiast and a pair of hunters turned mentors. But with an upcoming blood moon, the stakes are high, and some will prove to be more supportive than others.

!!''Are We Monsters'' provides examples of:
* AlternateIdentityAmnesia: Werewolves have their minds go into a dreamlike state (as Maya narrates, said dreams are more like nightmares) as their bodies mutate into grotesque [[NonIndicativeName un-lupine]] monsrosities that can only hunt and devour.
* BittersweetEnding: Sweet enough to almost be considered a SurprisinglyHappyEnding. Everett is [[spoiler: unable to convince Connor to spare Maya, thus to atone for contributing he lets himself and Connor get killed by the blood moon werewolf.]] On the other hand, Maya now [[spoiler: accepts she is more than a monster and while Luke may have been turned into a werewolf himself now, it saved his life and he no longer has to fear dying, thus the two can now live happy together]].
* BetterToDieThanBeKilled: After a werewolf hunt gone wrong in the beginning, Everett and Connor's father shoots himself before [[spoiler: Maya's mother]] can kill or turn him, his last words begging Everett to run.
* CallASmeerpARabbit: The only parts of a werewolf that can be considered "wolflike" are the fangs, claws, and glowing eyes. Otherwise they're hairless save a few strands on the head and mainly humanoid with [[BodyHorror disturbingly long necks]].
* OurWerewolvesAreDifferent: They follow the classic full-moon transformation, AlternateIdentityAmnesia, and SilverBullet tropes, but the only lupine quality it gives them are the sharp fangs, claws, and glowing eyes. Their human forms are also invulnerable to non-silver wounds until a Blood Moon, where their werewolf form becomes a manifestation of their worst fears.
* ViralTransformation: As told in the story of [[spoiler: how Maya's father died and what happens to Luke at the end]], getting scratched by a werewolf will turn you into one. Unlike other examples, it is unspecified if a bite will do the same.
