The Wolf Man and Wolf Man
Manage episode 465421047 series 2462524
This week on Friday Night Frightfest, we’re howling at the moon with a classic monster movie double feature! We’ll be comparing two iconic takes on the werewolf legend: The Wolf Man (1941) and Wolf Man (2025).
The Wolf Man (1941)
Directed by George Waggner, this classic Universal Monsters film tells the tragic tale of Lawrence Talbot, an American actor who returns to his ancestral home in England and becomes cursed by a werewolf. This film is renowned for its atmospheric cinematography, iconic imagery (like the memorable “Even a man who is pure at heart can become a wolf-man” line), and its exploration of themes like guilt and the primal nature of man.
Wolf Man (2025)
Directed by Leigh Whannell from a screenplay he co-wrote with Corbett Tuck, this reboot of The Wolf Man franchise, follows a family man seeking to protect his wife and daughter from a werewolf, only to become infected and slowly transform into the creature. Jason Blum produces alongside his Blumhouse Productions banner.
Join us as we dissect these two films, exploring their different approaches to the werewolf legend, their visual styles, and their impact on the horror genre.
Spoilers start around 6:06.
