This was the worst of the 3 movies that Hans Brahm directed for 20th-Century Fox. Unlike The Lodger and Hangover Square, this one looks like one of the cheap quickies that Republic and Monogram Studios used to churn out in the '40's.
Casting for this movie was getting look-alikes of more famous stars-the guy who played Oliver was a dead ringer for Lon Chaney, Jr. And Christy looked suspiciously like Cornelia Otis Skinner with a dye job, right down to the hair-do and the rubber faced facial mugging, right out of The Uninvited. The worst part of the movie was the ending-the way they sped up the monster's running scenes on camera looked pretty silly, and the transformation from wolf to man was some really sloppy camera work.
