On a dark and somber night, a secret cabal of monster hunters emerge from the shadows and gather at the foreboding Bloodstone Temple following the death of their leader. In a strange and macabre memorial to the leader's life, the attendees are thrust into a mysterious and deadly competition for a powerful relic--a hunt that will ultimately bring them face to face with a dangerous monster. Inspired by horror films of the 1930s and 1940s, the chilling special aims to evoke a sense of dread and the macabre, with plenty of suspense and scares along the way as we explore a new corner of the Marvel Cinematic Universe.

Critics Consensus

A spooky yarn told with taut economy, Werewolf by Night is a standout Marvel entry that proves Michael Giacchino as atmospheric and skilled a director as he is a composer.

The sets harken back to the vintage ‘30s, and the dark streak of humor and make this one irresistible viewing for the Halloween season.

Told with wry humor while tapping into unexplored quadrants of comics lore, it’s a bit too gory and scary for younger kids but a gift to fans that raises enticingly monster-ous possibilities.

Observer

Werewolf By Night is a charming tribute not only to the pulpy horror comics on which it’s based but to the scary and silly classic cinema that a generation of film lovers grew up watching late at night on local television.

Flickering Myth

Werewolf By Night is a howling good time and perfect for the Halloween season. Giacchino’s debut is certainly one of the strongest and most visually distinct of the recent MCU outings, laying the exciting groundwork for a new corner of the universe.

It’s nice to see Disney striking out in unique directions, especially when the big screen universe is struggling to regain its inventive stride.

This special looks so cool, and the ideas are awesome. It’s too short for me to say a lot more, but trust that it is worth the watch.

One of the best anything to come from Marvel Studios in the past two Phases, Werewolf by Night shows just how brilliant a director and writer famed composer Michael Giacchino is, delivering a horror special that pays homage to the Universal Monsters of old while situating itself in the MCU seamlessly. Here's hoping we'll see more of the titular werewolf, Man-Thing, and Elsa Bloodstone crossing paths with Moon Knight and Ghost Rider.

Rated 4.5 out of 5 stars

Brilliant twist, great visual and nice action, especially for its rating. I’d say the characters are very weak and under developed, which they are, but that’s almost forgivable considering what this medium-length movie is trying to achieve. Hope we get more of this style in marvel movies and shows.

This movie was so fun. I loved every single thing about it (except how short it was)! Riveting from the outset, funny, with interesting and endearing characters, and splashy (but mild) horror. Absolute perfection!
