  • More Werewolf Movies Coming Thanks to New Moon

    The HowlingThanks to The Twilight Saga, werewolf movies are making a comeback. The second installment, New Moon, raked in piles of money opening weekend, drawing wolfpack fans along with those of vampires.

    In February, Universal's Wolfman arrives, in which Benicio Del Toro contends with the ancient curse. And now Variety has the news that The Howling, the 1981 werewolf movie by Joe Dante that generated a series of six sequels, is set for a franchise reboot with The Howling: Reborn.

    The original starred Dee Wallace-Stone as a news anchor stalked by a serial killer, who turns out to be a werewolf. The plot details of the reboot are being kept tightly under wraps for now, but production is already set to start in February for a Halloween release. There's no word yet on whether they'll still use Gary Brandner's original novel as source material.

      They deserve to be given awards. In spite of bad reviews regarding to this story, yet, we can’t the fact that its sequel New Moon is a runaway success. If you got loans for camping gear to wait days for tickets, it might have been a waste. That’s right, teenie-boppers and anyone else really into this whole vampire thing New Moon comes out Nov. 20th, and there are already New Moon reviews out. The consensus among critics is that the film – you’ll have to pardon the pun – really BITES. (How am I not supposed to make that joke?) Rotten Tomatoes along some of the really big reviewers have decided that the novelty has worn off, and are giving the film a hiding.

If you'll pardon the pun, the critics generally are saying the film BITES. (Oh how am I NOT supposed to make that joke?) Some of the heavyweight critics, along with Rotten Tomatoes, are no longer amused. Maybe payday loans for camping gear to await the premiere won’t be worth it.
