Once dusk hits, the moon peeks through the night clouds and the whole village yearns for a crescent moon because disaster will strike the village if the moon is full.
Post mid-night, when the moon is full, the village is laced with indescribable massacres.
The whole town scatters to safety when a full moon seeps through the clouds.
Blood, guts and intestines is what you will find when the creature, The Wolfman, leaves the village.
The Wolfman knows what he does, even after his transformation. He awakes from the ravenous night and looks at himself in disgust from his past nights outrageous acts.
Lawrence Talbot (Benicio del Toro) gets a letter from his brother's wife, Gwen Conliffe (Emily Blunt), that his brother is missing in his hometown, London. He finds his way back to the estate at which his father, Sir John Talbot (Anthony Hopkins), lives with Conliffe.
On the night of a full moon, Lawrence goes to the gypsy camp to see if he can find some answers from Maleva (Geraldine Chaplin), the town's fortune teller who knows all about the legends of London.
She tells Lawrence that something immoral happened to his brother. Shortly after that, The Wolfman forcefully gallops through the small village butchering everything in sight.
The Wolfman is so fast, so strong, there is no way Lawrence could stand a chance with him.
So, of course, director Joe Johnston had to make the movie a bit more interesting. Viewers knew what had to come next.
When The Wolfman takes a young boy into the woods, Lawrence acts as a hero and goes after The Wolfman.
As he creeps through the cemetery, he loses sight of the large beast.
Suddenly, Lawrence and the beast are tussling around on the grass. The Wolfman gets his one good bite in, and that's all it takes.
So the usual happens.
For awhile, Lawrence wakes up in cold sweats, nightmares, fatigue and et cetera. While the beautiful Conliffe is there each moment by his bed side assisting him with warm towels, and bandaging his wounds.
So what happens to Lawrence weeks after his fight with The Wolfman?
You shall find out in a theater near you!
The Wolfman came out in theaters on February 12, 2010. Talk about a Happy Valentines Day.
I thought the movie was a typical werewolf film -- a human is bitten and turns into a werewolf, no twist. On the flip side, the acting was great.
Furthermore, if you are trying to take your girlfriend or boyfriend out, and expecting she or he to jump into your arms because she or he is scared, The Wolfman is not the film to spend $20 for the both of you to see.
If I were to write a werewolf movie:
I would like to write a script to the next werewolf movie titled "The Female Werewolf."
It will start with a woman seducing her boyfriend who cheated on her.
She steadily avoids him on nights the moon is full, but this particular night she will bite him.
The Female Werewolf can not convert a man, only another woman. The men bitten by the female wolf will die instantly.
And females who seek a better life, will be bitten by The Female
Werewolf.
The Female Werewolf will only attack if tempted.
