The Wolf Man Reviews

i thought larry was kinda creepy at first but then i started to feel bad for him, especially with his super sad/nervous eyes, the wolf man is definitely my least favorite universal monster designs though, all that hair is ewww but the movie was good

More thematic than I thought it was going to be when I started the film. Set design is also pretty great. I love the use of fog in the woods, it's very atmospheric

Dropped the ball by not having more torches and more shots inside of that church.

frankly i found the main character to be very creepy in the beginning 🤨 but the rest of the story was kinda depressing

Wasn’t the greatest from the classics

A very dark ending unfortunately a little outdated and the makeup could have been a bit better but a solid film nonetheless. More tragedy than horror. Elements of fate and future are foreshadowed through the characters in a poetic way.

Lon Chaney would be proud of his son

bad

Well if I’m being honest i barely paid attention to that movie lol (on YouTube (8/2025))

Give him a wifwolf now

⭐️⭐️

LAARRRYYYYY

It was not great, I wanted it to be good but just because it’s in black & white doesn’t mean it’s a really good classic movie.

I felt I never got something to sink my teeth into. The protagonist acts creepy to this poor girl the whole time. I know it’s a product of it’s time and was huge at that time. But it’s just not scary or what I find to be worse -it’s not interesting

Of all the horror sun-genres, werewolves are my least favorite. What makes this such an exception is a fantastic script about family, legacy, and origins. Cheney is fantastic, and Lugosi’s brief time on screen really showcases this as a quintessential Universal Monster icon.

Overall this film is built up with a good cast and writing, with the acting being generally solid. That said, while I enjoyed the film I’d argue that there wasn’t anything to write home about.

Classic and fun. Real hard to not love.
