any experts on werewolf movies?

[fluffho]

i cant remember this movie that i watched a while ago, on tv i think

the head dude was mexican, or latino or something. kind of looked like richard ramirez actually,

but anyway, he ended up being a werewolf, i cant remember if he was one already or if he was turned at some point in the movie.

im prettty sure they used typical silver to kill him

but the one thing i DO remember that is a big part, is the heroine, cant remmeber if its a guy or girl, goes to some church. i think the head nun there knows the vampire dude,
well the heroine asks 'how can i kill it'
and the nun pulls out this gold or silver cross, very elaborate, with jesus on it and everything

the heroine is like huh? then the nun holds one end and pulls on the other and turns out the cross is this bad ass knife/pick thing

does this sound familiar to anyone?

this movie bugged me at one night around 2am i woke up WHAT THE FUCK WAS THAT MOVIE AGAIN and i cant find it!

[VampRocker]

Ha! Sounds like quite a flick...

But I can't help ya on this one, I have no idea what movie that is...

[nightbreed]

that scene with the nun does sounds very familiar. i cant remember the name. damn. sorry i can't help you out. im not so much a werewolf expert, just more of a werewolf purist.

but for any of you other lycanthropes out there ginger snaps 2 comes out this month, keep your eyes out for it!!!!!!

I bet it's a Paul Naschy film. He was sort of a Spanish Boris Karloff, who played Dracula and Frankenstein and all the other biggies in these wack Spanish horror films.

Ten of them are the stories of Waldemar Daninsky, a werewolf.

-Did the werewolf snarl in sort of a silly way when he was on screen?
-Did he look like John Belushi?

If so it was probably Naschy.

Sounds like WOLF LAKE , Staring LOU DIAMOND PHILLIPS!!

Wow it sounds familiar I wanna say "Full Eclipes" which is a HBO film, but since I haven't seen "Full Eclipes" in awhile I am not posiive.

Anyhowls, I have a very good source far all things werewolf including lists of movies books and collectible stuff. If you are interested you can check out Jamie Halls web-site and the Shapeshifter Emporium.

okily dokily

so im PRETTY SURE it was Lou Diamond Phillips

although i looked up what WOLF LAKE was and that seems to be a tv series or something and this was definitely a movie

full eclipses isnt it. its more old fashioned, i mean they have guns and stuff but not like cops or whatever. country side comes to mind as well...

i know the wolf snarled a bunch but i cant remmeber it was silly. and im not quite sure who john belushi is although the name is familiar.

i looked on that webpage with all the werewolf movies but none of them seemed right.

ughhh, this is really bothering me now but im getting closer i can feel it..........

THERE is a movie and a series called wolf lake. the movie dose star LOU D PHILLIPS. I will bet it is the one you are thinking of.

[Dr.Kelvinstein]

I'm pretty sure mictlan is right. The dagger/crucifix was a reoccurring motif in a few of the Naschy werewolf movies. Usually the heroine was told that the only way the werewolf would stay dead is if he was stabbed by someone who loved him--a bit of lore stolen from Universal's House of Frankenstein.

[fluffho]

i KNOW its Lou diamond Phillips

i can find info on wolf lake the series, but NOTHING on the movie

as for naschy, didnt look like him at all. but the dagger crucifix is definitely what would discern it from other films, especially since i know that happened while i could possibly be wrong about the head dude being lou diamond phillips.

i thought i would be able to find this out easier but i was wrongggg
