The Wolfman

April 2, 2021
Hosts: Ocean Murff, Ray DeLancey

“Even a man who is pure in heart and says his prayers by night, may become a wolf when the wolfbane blooms, and the autumn moon is bright.”

Can classic monsters be resurrected? Is this movie more spectacle than substance? Are horror remakes always doomed to fail? Ocean and Ray try to answer these questions, while also talking about aspects of The Wolfman that some wouldn’t stop to think about. A realistic examination of families with scarred pasts? Check. Breaking the traditional monster movie formula? Check. Why YOU should consider/re-consider watching this movie? Double check! Load up your silver bullets, or bring your favorite silver-handled cane as we take a look at Joe Johnston’s misunderstood 2010 remake The Wolfman.

Have you ever liked – maybe even loved – a movie that everyone else seems to hate?

You’re not alone! Hosts Ray DeLancey and Ocean Murff look at movies that are often panned to see if their hate is warranted. Sure, we’ll talk about what might be broken, but more important: we talk about what really works in these films with the hope that we change some minds along the way… maybe even yours. So sit back, relax, and let’s take the guilt out of guilty pleasures.
