There are no remakes of the Wolf Man, until the one comes out this year.

It depends, you'll have to ask the writers and directors if they based their films purely on the source material or referenced the first film made from said source for more inspiration. :p

You're right; Maybe I was thinking of Phantom of the Opera? Is that a remake or an adaptation?

Well, I'll go and do that then, next time I'm having lunch with John. :p

What? NEW MOON!?!:eek: it's releasing this year. [:D]

After watching the original Wolf Man lately just checked out the new Wolf Man (Releasing February 12, 2010) trailer on youtube...and I'm very curious about it...having such a great cast & settings I sincerely hope it'll turn out to be a great one too.
