Looks like the only classic "monster" movie Universal
hasn't remade is "The Invisible Man" and I don't see
any point in doing it after The Hollow Man. This one looks
pretty good, though!

I'm a sucker for a good werewolf flick. Haven't seen the classic in years, but this doesn't seem to be a 'direct' remake. Looks like they added stuff. Though like I said, it's been years. Looks interesting enough for me to check out.

This looks pretty dang good! The last good werewolf movie I've seen was "Bad Moon" and this looks to be 10 times better than that.

Del Toro is a good choice, and I have a huge crush on Emily Blunt... looking forward to this!

Del Toro actually looks a lot like Lon Cheney Jr in this movie too.

Well, it's got company. Shutter Island will be released in February, too.

Keep in mind Orion originally released The Silence of the Lambs in February of '91.

300 was released in the first week of March. This may do just fine.

I've read that Rick Baker was disappointed that he didn't get to do the actual transformation scenes, as they are going with CGI for that.

Looks awesome. There's a dearth of good werewolf flicks, but this one should be badass.

"Bad Moon" had a great werewolf design (similar to those in The Howling) but used what were at the time the best effects available... a guy in a really good animatronic suit with cgi assistance for the Big Transformation Scene.

I was not impressed with the Jack Nicholson movie "Wolf."

My favorite relatively recent werewolf movies have been the Ginger Snaps series.

There's a night and day difference between HG Wells' novella "The Invisible Man" and the movie Hollow Man.
