The Wolf Man (1941)
10/10
In all due respect

Every monster must have it's origin. The importance of this monster to modern movies and those to come must make us appreciate it's origins. Regardless of how you feel about actors or plot when it comes to this picture, it deserves nothing less than a 10 for bringing forth into the silver screen the monster of all monsters. THE Wolf Man! Since then, the Wolf Man has stirred so many feelings, so many fears, so many movies. The Howling, Cursed, The Wolfen, An American Werewolf In London, Paris, etc.. It goes on and on and hopefully on. Out of all of the original monsters, Werewolves are number 1 for scaring the crap out of me. It all started right here with this very movie. I still can't watch it without feeling awestruck at how much this film has started and continued the fear of the Wolf Man. Even a man who is pure in heart and says his prayers by night may become a wolf when the wolfsbane blooms and the autumn moon is bright.
