Long ago, the Universal Horror film, THE WOLF MAN (1941), was groundbreaking. Turning Long Chaney Jr. into a star, it was gothic, and filled with fortunetellers and the occult, and took place in the atmospheric country of Wales. Now, Leigh Whannell (UPGRAGE (2018)) has directed the reboot for Universal Pictures.

From IMDB: A family at a remote farmhouse is attacked by an unseen animal, but as the night stretches on, the father begins to transform into something unrecognizable.

The movie stars Christopher Abbott, Julia Garner, and Matilda Firth. The screenplay is cowritten by Leigh Whannell and Corbett Tuck. The film was released on January 17, 2025 by Universal and Blumhouse. Your cohosts take a look at this new lycanthrope film and give their thoughts.
