“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”.
In 1941, The Wolf Man introduced the world to a new Universal movie monster and the mythology of the werewolf was re-defined forever.
Featuring a heartbreaking performance by Lon Chaney Jr. and groundbreaking make-up by Jack Pierce, this story of a cursed man who transforms into a deadly werewolf when the moon is full has not only become a masterpiece of the horror genre, but of all-time.
Now, in this 2-Disc Special Edition, the classic film lives on with a digitally remastered picture and all-new bonus features.
The Universal Legacy Series release will be available to own from the 30th August, and should retail at around $14.98.
