Werewolf films have progressed a long way since the days of Lon Chaney, Jr. While The Wolf Man is an absolutely amazing film, the werewolf genre really came into its own in the early 1980s. Groundbreaking films like the Oscar-winning An American Werewolf In London kicked off an era in which transformation special effects truly sold the concept to startled audiences across the globe. Unfortunately, most of the modern werewolf classics began and ended in the 1980s. The 1990s saw the majority of werewolf films churned out with lousy computer effects and even lousier plots. Your Team Fantasmo has therefore sifted through the muck and mire and plucked two of the best werewolf films out there… one from the early 1980s and one from the new millennium! We guarantee that seeing these on our GIANT screen will be a life-altering experience you simply cannot afford to miss!

Between the real films, Craig T. Adams (one of the demented and talented folks who brings us Dr. Madblood on SKY4) will (mis)treat the audience with a werewolf film he made in 1966, at age fourteen! (Oh, the humanity!)
