Ep1066: Wolf Man (2024) - Live Round Table Review
Earth's Mightiest Critics pounce on their first theatrical-release review of the year with a look at Leigh Whannell's Wolf Man!
In this twist on the classic Universal monster movie, Christopher Abbott and Julia Garner play Blake and Charlotte, a dysfunctional married couple who, along with their young daughter, Ginger (Matilda Firth), visit Blake's rural childhood home after his father's death. The family encounters a savage creature in the woods, which attacks Chris and transfers a lycanthropic curse to him.
Who will survive the night? And will Dad still be "Dad"--or the new family pet?
Critics and audiences alike have savaged Whannell's Wolf Man, but there's at least one critic who thinks everyone is missing the point.
