Werewolf Fever (2009)
How does one get the werewolf fever? What are the symptoms? Is there testing for it? Should we wear a face mask around those that have it? These are all important questions, so I’ll give you one answer: do not eat any werewolf meat. Donny the delivery boy is the low man on the Kingburger […]
Exploring : Paul Naschy and El Hombre Lobo
Born during the Spanish Civil War as Jacinto Molina Alvarez, the man who would one day be known as Paul Naschy didn’t write his first werewolf film — much less plan on starring in it — until he was 34 years old. He had plans of being an architect but moved between acting, writing and […]
The Howling: Reborn (2011)
While this movie claims that it’s based on Gary Brandner’s The Howling II, it is merely inspired by it. If you’ve made it this far in this series of films, you won’t be surprised. This is the eighth film in the series that started back in 1981 with The Howling. Much like the Amityville and Demons series […]
Exploring: The Howling
Much like Demons, Prom Night, Amityville, Children of the Corn and the House series of films, none of The Howling movies really seem to add up. No worries! That’s why we’re here, to be your guide through a series of movies that goes from the highest of highs to the absolutely lowest levels of cinema. So how did it all get […]
Wolfen (1981)
Before he was getting beamed up into spaceships, Whitley Streiber wrote The Wolfen. It came out in a year that saw two other essential werewolf movies, An American Werewolf In London and The Howling. There’s a reason why this film isn’t mentioned in the same breath as the other furry releases of 1981. By comparison, it’s slow-moving and […]
Dr. Jekyll and the Werewolf (1972)
We’re six movies in to the story of El Hombre Lobo, Waldemar Daninsky. This time, after battling aliens and yetis and vampires, he is searching for a cure. That cure brings him to the grandson of Dr. Jekyll, played by Jack Taylor, whose career has taken him from the Mexican Nostradamus movies to Jess Franco sleaze […]
Abbott and Costello Meet Frankenstein (1948)
Originally titled The Brain of Frankenstein, the title of this movie was changed to make it less “horror” and to feature the comedy duo. Lou Costello hated the script, claiming his five-year-old daughter could write a better script. The Universal Monsters hadn’t been in a movie in three years, with Lugosi — who is playing […]
The Werewolf Reborn (1998)
Teenager Eleanor Crane goes to visit her uncle Peter in a remote Eastern European village, and receives an unexpectedly cold welcome from the villagers, who are plagued by a deadly curse. That’s because Peter just so happens to be a werewolf. Director Jeff Burr had plans to make an entire series of movies based on […]
