What's Your Best Werewolf Film?

[Sculpt]

Ignoring what others and 'history' has said...

What werewolf film did you like the most? The one you thought was the best? Why do you think so?

(It doesn't matter if you've seen all the films on the list or not, it's an arbitrary list anyway, so please go ahead and vote.)


Our HDC polls only allow for ten options (would like to see that increased to 20 or 25); so sorry if I missed your best. If the best werewolf film you ever saw is not on the list, what is it, and why did you like it so much?


The list in alphabetical order:
An American Werewolf in London (1981)
Bad Moon (1996)
Company of Wolves (1984)
Dog Soldiers (2002)
Ginger Snaps (2000)
Howling (1981)
Red Riding Hood (2011)
Silver Bullet (1985)
Werewolf of London (1935)
Wolf Man (1941)

Dog Soldiers is my favorite, followed by The Howling.

Three of my favourite werewolf flicks all came out in the same year; The Howling, An American Werewolf in London and Wolfen. Good year for werewolf fans.

i find it disturbing that Teen Wolf Too isn't represented on that list

never considered Wolfen a werewolf film … it had more in common with The Manitou really ..

You're probably right, but its all tied up in the same kind of mythos for me, men turning into wolves is close enough for me.

Not sure, haven't seen it for years, I just remember a lot of talk about shape shifting... along with some incredible cinematography.

The Curse of the Werewolf is worth a mention too, great flick...

The werewolf movie that blew me away more than any other was The Company of Wolves. Amazing movie. I wish that would get a nice blu ray release. I really liked American Werewolf in London and Dog Soldiers too, as well as the universal werewolf movies. I haven't seen Ginger Snaps or Bad Moon or that one that Jack Nicholson did back in the 90s, forgot what that was called. I think Benicio Del Toro was in one not too long ago to, but it looked weak. I forgot what it was called.
