Werewolf Triple Bill – Part II

fenrisfil — Tue, 18 Feb 2025 12:36:29 +0000

The full moon is up again here at Screen-Wolf, so it’s time for another werewolf triple bill. I think I’ve finally washed the bad taste of “Wolf Man” (2025) out of my mouth, so this will be the last one for now. Here are three more reviews of this difficult to pull off sub-genre of …

Werewolf Triple Bill

fenrisfil — Thu, 30 Jan 2025 22:27:08 +0000

Rather than doing a regular review roundup for January, I’m going to take a bit of a swerve. Continuing the trend from my previously posted reviews, I’m reviewing three werewolf movies. So, if you follow this blog (Or my social media posts), you know I didn’t like the new “Wolf Man” (2025) movie. That’s an …

Head to Head: Wolf Man (2025) & The Beast Within (2024)

Today I have a Werewolf double bill for you, checking out the just released “Wolf Man” from Universal/Blumhouse and “The Beast Within”, an independent release, directed by Alexander J. Farrell, from last year. I’m going to put these two wolves head to head. These movies are pretty similar so it makes sense to make a …

Nosferatu (2024)

fenrisfil — Mon, 06 Jan 2025 13:42:20 +0000

Since Robert Eggers latest movie “Nosferatu” was released in the UK January 1st 2025, for me it is the first movie of this year. To many of my readers though it will have been the last movie of 2024 since it arrived Christmas day for the US and a few other territories. Sadly that means …

Christmas Horror Triple Bill

fenrisfil — Tue, 17 Dec 2024 13:33:17 +0000

I’ve been threatening to review some Christmas horrors for a few years and now is the time. Given horrors obsession with holiday themes it’s not a huge surprise to learn there are an awful lot of Christmas horror films. It’s probably even a less of a surprise that most of them are also awful. There …

1980’s Horror Triple Bill

fenrisfil — Thu, 31 Oct 2024 18:23:01 +0000

That’s right, It’s the final night of my October Review Challenge. That means it’s Halloween and *that* means it’s triple bill time. As you can probably guess, I watch the movies I review in October the day before I post (Sometimes earlier). So what I do on Halloween is sit back and enjoy three old …

1950’s Horror Double Bill

fenrisfil — Wed, 30 Oct 2024 16:40:49 +0000

Time for another horror double bill. This time we’re hitting the 1950’s for some classic horror science fiction. This was a popular sub genre in the fifties and in truth swayed more to science fiction but usually meant some kind of monster was involved along the way. No exception with this duo. So for your …

1992 Horror Double Bill

fenrisfil — Tue, 29 Oct 2024 13:36:22 +0000

As we roll closer to Halloween I’ve decided to up my game and do three double bill reviews. I’ve picked movies that won’t require me to be too verbose in my analysis, but should still be fun. First up is a 1992 Doctor Double Bill. That is I am review the comedy horror Doctor Giggles …

It is based on an idea Benjamin came up with while at an airport and is his feature film debut. The film stars Ben O’Toole and Meg Fraser (Also making her debut).

Curse Of The Cat People (1944)

fenrisfil — Sun, 27 Oct 2024 11:00:00 +0000

Cynical cash in sequels were not an invention of more recent years. They were part of Hollywood since the golden age. Curse Of The Cat People is the sequel to “Cat People” from 1942. Both films were written by DeWitt Bodeen. To Bodeen and producer Val Lewton, this was a lot more than just a …
