Black C คลาสสิก เป็นหนึ่งในหนังมนุษย์หมาป่าที่ชอบที่สุดตลอดกาลของผม และเป็นปีศาจที่ชอบที่สุดของค่ายนี้แล้วละ Rated 5/5 Stars •  Rated 5 out of 5 stars 05/31/25 Full Review Ryan H A surprisingly scary werewolf movie. Lon Chaney Jr. thrives as Larry Talbot, and it's no wonder why this movie is so well regarded. A howling success. Rated 5/5 Stars •  Rated 5 out of 5 stars 04/28/25 Full Review Johnathon W Horror classic that, while is dated today, remains a landmark in the Universal Monster line-up. The is superb, with Lon Chaney Jr. excellent in the title role, playing Larry Talbot with real pathos as someone stricken with being a werewolf. He gets great support from the rest of the cast, especially the great Claude Rains as his father. Behind the camera, director George Waggner delivers a straight forward story that doesn't overstay its welcome, coming in just under 90 minutes, while delivering a nice bit of drama. Plus, the make-up effects, while technically for today, holds up quite well. A true Universal monster classic. Rated 5/5 Stars •  Rated 5 out of 5 stars 01/28/25 Full Review Omar G The Wolf Man (1941), 7/10 stars. The stars Claude Rains, Lon Chaney Jr., Maria Ouspenskaya and Bela Lugosi were good in their roles. The natural girls of the time in Universal Pictures productions without rhinoplasty, implants, collagen, liposuction or botox. The film lasts 1h 10 min but it seemed eternal in length. These films Dracula (1931), Frankenstein (1931), The Wolf Man (1941) seem very edited to last a little more than an hour. This Werewolves was very weak a shorty, slim old man like Claude Rains could kill the Were wolf too easily. The girl Gwen Conliffe was a bad female that one should reject, she would be unfaithful to you at some point. Rated 3/5 Stars •  Rated 3 out of 5 stars 11/02/24 Full Review Wayne K When it comes to the Golden Age Of Hollywood, most people tend to talk about the romance, mystery and adventure films of the time, but it was also a fantastic period for horror movies. Mummys, Vampires, Ghosts, Demons, and of course, Werewolves. Sadly, the latter’s reputation might have been somewhat sullied by the Twilight movies, which reduced powerful, scary monsters to whiny, lovelorn irritants. But The Wolf Man is probably the defining depiction of Werewolves on screen, despite some aspects of it looking pretty silly nowadays. In a time before CGI was even thought of, filmmakers were forced to get creative with makeup and practical effects. The great thing is, much like Frankenstein, the film work on a deep and more emotional level. Lon Chaney is a charming, friendly young man who has endless potential and his whole life ahead of him, but an unfortunate encounter with a creature of the night reduces him to the status of a pariah, and because he’s such a likeable character, you feel truly bad for him. It’s awful enough being ostracised for a mistake you’ve made, but when you’re being shunned for something that’s completely out of your control, that’s where the true tragedy lie. It’s all shot very well, with lots of gothic imagery, plenty of fog, dark forests and cloudy skies. It comes to a very abrupt ending, something I noticed a lot in films from around this time, but there’s a lot to admire and enjoy in a film that did a legendary monster justice, in a way films other films have. Rated 3.5/5 Stars •  Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 10/19/24 Full Review Julian S It’s neither as frightening nor as campy as it could be, yet it delves impressively into the psychosis of lycanthropy. Rated 3/5 Stars •  Rated 3 out of 5 stars 09/16/24 Full Review Read all reviews
