Movie Reviews

Variety - 10/10 by Variety StaffThe Wolf Man is a compactly-knit tale of its kind, with good direction and performances by an above par assemblage of players, but dubious entertainment.
Creative Loafing - 10/10 by Matt BrunsonEven with a canon that includes the definitive versions of (among others) Frankenstein, Dracula and The Phantom of the Opera, this 1941 classic has always remained my favorite of the studio's prolific output.
Combustible Celluloid - 10/10 by Jeffrey M. AndersonIt's a good, solid film, held together by Chaney's appealing performance and great supporting players like Lugosi as Bela the gypsy who turns into a wolf.
Three Movie Buffs - 9/10 by Scott NashHorror movies today rely on gore and as many jump out of your seat moments as they can throw at you. This one relies on old fashioned atmosphere and acting ability and that's all it really needs.
Nick's Flick Picks - 9/10 by Nick DavisThe Wolf Man's tantamount pleasures are its economy and speed, its silvery manipulations of light and shadow, and the panache with which the lighting, the story, and the rich cast navigate [its] tone.
Journal and Courier (Lafayette, IN) - 8/10 by Bob BloomA wonderfully campy horror film that made a star of Lon Chaney Jr. Despite its hokiness, it stills holds up.
Radio Times - 8/10 by Alan JonesThis Universal classic not only established Lon Chaney Jr as a horror star but also instigated most of the cinematic werewolf lore concerning pentagrams, the Moon and the fatality of silver.
Projection Booth - 8/10 by Rob HumanickMost horrifying is the potential inability to sway our own innately darker tendencies.
LarsenOnFilm - 8/10 by Josh LarsenChaney may appear to have had a bad run-in with a hair dryer, but he's still the definitive villain as tragic hero.
Antagony & Ecstasy - 8/10 by Tim BraytonA film of sometimes uncertain greatness that is nonetheless the most entertaining and effective Universal monster movie since Bride of Frankenstein.
