Review of The Curse of the Werewolf (1961) by Michael G — 13 Apr 2010
Curse of the Werewolf started off in an unconventionally amazing way as it started with some gruesome territory involving rape, gruesome murder and other elements you wouldn't expect from a movie from the early 60s.
I liked how it told an almost life story of a werewolf giving the curse more spiritual origins than mystical ones. Terence Fisher's direction is superb and as cool as the werewolf looked, the fact that you don't see him until the last 10 minutes of the movie was pretty dumb.
The fresh take was a nice change but the lack of monster kind of ruined it. Not a bad watch but its been done better.
