Academy Award® winners Anthony Hopkins (The Silence of the Lambs) and Benicio Del Toro (Traffic) tear up the screen in this action-packed thriller. Lawrence Talbot (Del Toro) is lured back to his family estate to investigate the savage murder of his brother by a bloodthirsty beast. There, Talbot must confront his childhood demons, his estranged father (Hopkins), his brother's grieving fiancée (Emily Blunt, The Devil Wears Prada) and a suspicious Scotland Yard Inspector (Hugo Weaving, The Matrix Trilogy). When Talbot is bitten by the creature, he becomes eternally cursed and soon discovers a fate far worse than death. Inspired by the classic Universal film that launched a legacy of horror, The Wolfman brings the myth of a cursed man back to its iconic origins.

They want to pay me from $ 10,000 to $ 1,000,000 , but that was not the amount I asked for . Those are not only a songs .

It's very sad to see this movie not getting the recognition it deserves. Benicio was so good in this one, he portrayed the trauma, the physical and emotional stress/pain he had to go through. And the line "his father is literally a monster", is much deeper than it sounds like. Sadly people just saw the vfx and makeup, not the portrayal.

[@adamexenvironmental4468]

I agree 100% Benecio was better as Talbot than Chaney Jr. My opinion, of course but the 1940s made HORRIBLE monster movies that fans just watch and digest over and over again. The reason they sucked? Implausible story lines (Dracula/Wolfman/Frankenstein Monster all in one mish -mash of silly nonsense) and the censorship of violence and gore. The acting in these old movies was ridiculous as well. Just listen to the dialogue…people don’t talk like that! AND why do they always have to change the time from Victorian England (or whenever) to modern times? Universal, after ‘Son of Frankenstein’ and before HAMMER PRODUCTIONS was stupid.

I had the privilege of being in it, hence my nickname here. I'm one of the 'doctors' right on the back row on the left. I ran around that studio for either 5 or 6 days and yet I was left on the cutting room floor for most of it. It was great fun making it and thank you for the paycheck Universal. Joe Johnson looked after us really well with fresh coffee available at all the breaks plus cakes and sandwiches and a brilliant barbecue for one of the lunches. SUPERB. I nearly got talking to Benicio at the first. I had no idea who he was and he was dressed in that scruffy suit so I thought he was just another extra actor. I'd seen some of the scene decoration going on and just remarked to him how good it was. He agreed, but then he was called away for a last check on make-up. Next thing he's wheeled into that room and I say to the guy next to me, I was just trying to speak to him. That's when he told me that it was Benicio. We all made friends with Gabor, the stuntman playing the wolfman character. He was a really friendly guy. Loved it and great memories. Sometimes we started at 7:30am and went on til 11:00 at night, but was worth it.

@K, U aren’t a KILLA To be fair, Joe Johnston had to finish someone else's movie. Well, that and a werewolf and a wolfman are technically two different things.

[@noxamillion4514]

I agree with your assessment. A transformation like this - if real - would be a change on a cellular and fundamental level, and be incredibly painful. His body would be literally reshaping itself. Bones would stretch with muscle, eyes would swell in their sockets, teeth would shift and sprout anew, only to change back with the light of day. Truly horrific, and truly fascinating.

[@Ashgrom]

The "Kill me..." isn't because he's in physical pain here, though he obviously is. It's because he know that once he turns he'll start to slaughter everything in his path.

[@brandoncruise6398]

@ Soapfanaddict I take it you haven’t seen the movie. I think you completely missed the intent of the characters themselves. Darth Vader and magneto are methodical in their nature to where this creature is completely wild, unpredictable, and will say anything to terrify anybody in their way. It has no quarrel about letting people live or killing them indiscriminately. It simply does not care about MOST human values because of how he was raised as a child. It’s the weight, wildness, and several layers of characterization that make this scene succeed in all areas.

[@brandoncruise6398]

I don’t think you must the same movie I did because he does harm people in discriminately. Yes he does kill the person who injected him as well as the doctor, but he also mortally wounded 7 other people in that same room. Those are 2 or 3 inch long claws ripping through 7 people in the room and at least 7 in the bus. The difference between him and the two you mentioned is that this one doesn’t care whether you live or die if you’re in or near it’s vicinity. Hulk and Morbius prefer not to kill, Vader chooses who to kill, this one doesn’t care about either option.I don’t know how are you didn’t see that. He’s not like Hulk or Morbius at all. There’s no line between morality and immorality for him.
