What Where Werewolf?

I've finally been given the excuse to ask a terribly uninformed question that's bothered me for decades back to the internet! Because, uh, I never do that! Check out and see what's haunting me at the new Horror Roundtable at The Horror Blog.... we were asked for our first horror movie memory, and I swear if anyone leads me unto the flick that's caused me such life-long sporadic consternation I'll be eternally grateful. I'll, like, come over and fold your sheets for you every weekend, I promise!

Hey Plaid Pants,

Have you seen Silver Bullet? It's a werewolf flick from about the same period, and i saw it when i was seven or eight and it FUCKED ME UP. Very very scary shit. I'm happy to say i watched it recently and wasn't too scared (my boyfriend said that was because the movie was "stupid," and "boring," and i think he was right), so i think you can watch it now, to see if it's the flick you're looking for, without too much fear of fresh trauma. it's Netflixable, if that's yr thing.

Here's hoping you get to the bottom of it... and then let us know.

Any chance it was "Moon of the Wolf," an old TV movie from '72 that has replayed occasionally on TV and was released on VHS? It starred David Jansen from the Fugitive and was set in the South. I remember it scaring me when I was a littl'n, too. That probably wouldn't happen today, though. At any rate, that's the most obscure werewolf movie I know of.

was it wolfen or the howling... both 1981 and both freaked my shit out as a kid.

Sam - Not Silver Bullet; that was one of my faves when I was a little older. Haven't seen it in years and imagine that you're right and it probably hasn't aged well. Thanks though!

Shaun/Damion - I'm adding Moon of the Wolf and Wolfen to my queue, so I'll let you know on those. Maybe!

Can't believe I've never seen Wolfen - that I remember, at least...

It's not The Howling though, that I've seen recently.

Hey Ja-
Haven't posted in a while but I still check in to see what words of wisdom you spurt forth. But this last month has been busy as I recently moved to the big apple. Drop me a line. blackkittycatt@yahoo.com
