Halloween Discussion Forums, Costumes, Horror!

You can always go see this new WOLFMAN movie. I know it's hard for you to find the old classic WOLFMAN in England, right?

Well, we have plenty of old and classic movies here in USA. Maybe you wish you want to move here in USA?

Sometimes I want to but then other times I don't. Anyway I want to see the Wolfman classic and new to compare them. Maybe Play or Amazon will have it...?

As anxious as I am to see this flick, I really hope they release it in October of 09.

Someone was there at Hauntcon in Milwaukee, Wisconsin April 30 - May 3. After the Halloween Horror Nights seminar, they opened the floor to Q&A. He asked the speaker about the long awaited Wolfman heatrical release. The guy told him that it'll come out in November. Then he asked the guy again about the Creature From The Black Lagoon remake. The guy said that it all depends on how well the Wolfman does. If it does well in theaters... then it'll be a go to make. That's all I know.

As a werewolf movie afficionado I'm looking forward to seeing this. I've never actually seen the original, but usually around Halloween time I can find the classic horror movies really cheap on DVD at the local dollar stores, so maybe just for the heck of it I'll pick up a copy.
I just hope it isn't going to be cheesy. I'm VERY picky about how werewolf movies are done.
This werewolf image doesn't look too wolf like, more monster like, but I think they wanted to be nostalgic and make him look reminesecent of the original wolfman, and I'm ok with that really. He does look a little wolf like.
Of course, the film industry has a lot more to work with nowadays than back in the 20s and 30s. Movies were a new thing back then so they didn't have near as much to work with as they do now.
I'm actually a fan of CGI, and if a film maker can implement both aspects of costume design without making the movie wolf look too much like a typical halloween costume then I don't mind them wearing a costume either. If they can implement both like they did in Lord of the Rings, then great. I don't think there were any complains about Gollum.

I'm disapointed though. Why are they releasing it in November? Why not October, October's the Month for Horror movies dang it!

By the way, in the wolf man wasn't he originally only to transform at the full moon during the fall harvest? But then later on in werewolf movies they made it so werewolves transformed during every full moon?

Well, good question ... why can't we see The Wolfman in October instead of November? I really have no idea, and I would have to sa it is up to the movie director to decide whenever his film is done and be ready to out to the theaters. Maybe...

I didn't see the original classic Wolfman I think was made in 1944, somthing like that. Someone told me it was good movie, but it was not really scary at all. Even, it doesn't look "real" wolf.
