Just finished Blumhouse's 'The Wolf Man'.
It's Blumhouse, so it's either good, or crap.
I quite enjoyed it! Very little faff, no hours of exposition, good creature effects, good small cast.

The problem with anything to do with Werewolves, is the same as Vampires, it`s got to be really extra special or a completely different take, to be any good, as both genres have been done to death.
I`m struggling to to think of the last really decent Werewolf film - American Werewolf, Dog Soldiers, Ginger Snaps, The Howling ?
Dog Soldiers is the only good one. I also liked the black-and-white Werewolf by Night but not for everyone.
It`s quite a tough one, as there`s loads that are " okay " but very few that standout.
Dog Soldiers was the one I always remember.The problem with anything to do with Werewolves, is the same as Vampires, it`s got to be really extra special or a completely different take, to be any good, as both genres have been done to death.

Top comic book for my taste.Underworld, for Kate Beckinsale and her outfits![]()
The best of all is American Werewolf. Still in my opinion THE defining movie for that sub-genre.The problem with anything to do with Werewolves, is the same as Vampires, it`s got to be really extra special or a completely different take, to be any good, as both genres have been done to death.

Decided to give Dog Soldiers a go, since you are pretty much spot on with your choices, etc.Dog Soldiers is the only good one. I also liked the black-and-white Werewolf by Night but not for everyone.
