And I vehemently disagree with you Ugly I and others in your camp over The Wolfman (2010)! It's the equivalent of the best of the Golden Age Universals! Simply great stuff that a true Monster Kid can recognize. Even better than JAWS! There, I wrote it!!! 


I strongly disagree. I liked the effects in the Wolf Man....I liked that they finally drew a parallel between the elder Talbot sons' death and the werewolfery (a beat I felt they definitely missed in the original. They telegraphed it with the hunting accident and all and then missed the boat)....and I was okay with Gwen Conliffe. Unfortunately, that was it for me. I never once felt BAD for Del toro as Talbot (and I think we should all agree that most of the time, you should feel bad for the victim of a werewolf curse.), I thought Hopkins phoned in his performance and I really did not like the changes in his character. I LIKED Sir John as the "last sane man" who absolutely refused to accept even talk of werewolves and well.....is ultimately wrong. And they telegraphed the "big reveal" from thee moment Larry enters Talbot Manor.

I may buy this on DVD, but it had better be a heck of a sale.
