The Werewolf Filmography: 300+ Movies

by Bryan Senn

Overview

From the horrific to the heroic, cinematic werewolves are metaphors for our savage nature, symbolizing the secret, bestial side of humanity that hides beneath our civilized veneer. Examining acknowledged classics like The Wolf Man (1941) and The Howling (1981), as well as overlooked gems like Dog Soldiers (2011), this comprehensive filmography covers the highs and lows of the genre. Information is provided on production, cast and filmmakers, along with critical discussion of the tropes and underlying themes that make the werewolf a terrifying but fascinating figure.

"When Bryan Senn writes books on cinema, many monster movie fans know he grabs their attention right away and won't let go. This hardcover tome is amazingly thorough and will have even the most knowledgeable were-wonk sniffing out the details on every page as they discover films they may have never heard of or known very little about. The bottom line for this invaluable full-moon filmography is that it eclipses the reader's epectations."—Scary Monsters Magazine
