Review of The Howling (1981) by Vincent Canby for The New York Times — 24 Jun 1995
It's also one of those movies that is itself so lethargic that one welcomes its so-called shock moments not because they are scary but because they indicate that not everyone behind the camera has been napping.
You don't dread the possibility of something jumping out from behind the door. You long for it.
