	Donnie Yen's debut as a director
		He had done so many films and if he was going to direct a film and go back to the same pattern, the same editing style and choreography, he could not compete with Jackie Chan, Sammo Hung, or Yuen Woo Ping.
		The film was shot for less than half a million dollars and under enormously difficult circumstances, yet Yen delivered big bang for the buck in a series of hyper-kinetic action sequences, along with arty camerawork and romantic lyricism.
		When he looks at this film, under those circumstances; the environment and lack of support, he admits that his willingness to pull it off despite all of that was surprising.

		I was not prepared for the power and depth of the film, which seemed to speak on several levels at once -- native culture, conservation of natural resources, and a man's journey of discovery.
		The criticism that Director Carroll Ballard's film is not entirely true to the book is legitimate, but I would point out that movies are seldom if ever entirely true to their source material.
		This is an enriching film for all ages regarless of the brief nudity and perhaps to some small extent, because of it.

	Syracuse New Times: Film Review (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-15)
		This opulent adventure begins in southern France's Gevaudan province circa 1764, as an apparently monstrous lupine stalks the countryside and claws to death various frightened peasants, with a series of attempts to capture the animal proving futile.
		Wolf is fact-based up to a point--the legend is true and most of the film's characters did exist except for Mani--but writer Stephane Cabel and director Christophe Gans still manage plenty of wiggle room for their own unique genre juggling.
		Gans also salutes the enduring horror flicks from Hammer Films, with their attendant grisly shocks amid the classiest of surroundings; groove to the first half's careful buildup of the beast's inevitable appearance, then enjoy the animatronic wonder on screen from Jim Henson's Creature Shop.

	Attack of the 50 Foot DVD: The Wolf Man - Classic Monster Collection (1941)
		Talbot begins to settle in to his old digs, but when he becomes wounded while interceding in a nocturnal wolf attack, he discovers to his horror that he has inherited the curse of the creature he killed; he is now a werewolf, doomed to transform into a bestial man-thing whenever the full moon rises.
		Remarkable (and typically tortuous) makeup by Jack Pierce cemented the Wolf Man's position alongside the Frankenstein monster and Dracula in upcoming Universal team-ups.
		I continue to be impressed with the sound mastering for this series - though the volume is low, it is uniformly free of hiss.

	Le Pacte Des Loups (Brotherhood of the Wolf) (2002) - Ninth Symphony Films Review
		While it is very common to include such types of fighting techniques in all manner of modern action films, in a period piece (meaning a film that takes place in a time other than the present), the story seems off kilter in places.
		But given that the film itself is based on an actual myth from French lore, criticizing the action sequences for historical correctness seems like a futile exercise, given that those scenes are actually quite well done, technically.
		Certainly the performance of Mark Dacascos (playing one of the men sent to the French countryside to deal with the wolf beast) borders more on the melodramatic than realistic, though the humor from his character is a welcome addition to the weightiness of the story.

	Belfry: The Good, the Vlad, and the Ugly
		Browning basically did a filmed version of the Balderston and Deane stage play, and unfortunately it shows — to modern tastes the result is static, talky, and almost unbearably dull.
		Leonard Wolf states in a footnote to his The Essential Dracula, “That Dracula is an old man at the beginning of the story has been persistently forgotten in all but one of the many film versions of the tale.” Incredibly, Wolf does not follow up this assertion with the name of the film!
		Wolf also claims that Coppola was the first filmmaker to recreate the frenzied Wild-West chase to Dracula’s castle with which Stoker ends his book.

	Free Press : The television will be revolutionized
		Wolf is not, it’s important to note, an aspiring filmmaker, that well-known species of young auteur willing to bide time in a series of tedious, steppingstone entertainment-biz jobs just to get a foot in Hollywood’s front door.
		No, Wolf is the sort of filmmaker who actually makes films — dozens of them, whenever the mood strikes him, about whatever he finds compelling.
		Wolf is instead one of a number of tech-age documentarians who are setting up shop on the Web, a young person with a camera, a computer, server space, and a gut instinct for what’s exciting and controversial and merits recording.

		Based on the famous Manga of the same name, these films tell the story of a Father and infant son who wander the Japanese countryside lending their skill as assassins to help those in need while trying to avenge the death of their family and restore honor to their name.
		SWORD OF VENGEANCE - The first in a series of six films based on the long-running manga concerns Itto Ogami (Tomisaburo Wakayama), a shogun's executioner who is framed by the Yagyu clan and forced into exile as a wandering assassin for hire.
		The reason for this omission is that the entire six-film series was filmed between 1972 and 1973, as the manga version was still being published.

		"Dick Wolf is the king of television crime, and I have no doubt that he will soon become the king of feature film crime," said Ellroy.
		"James is a legend," said Wolf, prolific producer of such television shows as "Law & Order." "From 'L.A. Confidential' to 'The Black Dahlia' to 'American Tabloid' and his 12 other riveting books, he has captured the essence of Los Angeles and the LAPD better than any other writer, period.
		Wolf Films is also producing "Law & Order: Criminal Intent" for the fall 2001 season, the "dramamentary" "Trial & Error" from Bill Guttentag and syndicated strip series "Arrest & Trial," hosted by Brian Dennehy.

		What follows are six of the greatest samurai films ever made—movies packed to the brim with action, pathos, and some of the most violent and stylish swordplay ever captured on film.
		Unfortunately, imports of Japanese samurai films weren’t really big business at the time—so, the Lone Wolf and Cub films weren’t readily available in America until around the 1990s, when they finally got a laserdisc and VHS release courtesy of Animeigo’s Samurai Cinema line.
		In editing the film down, the action is fast and furious—which isn’t entirely true of the original versions of these films.

		The two films also have no connection to each other, but Universal apparently couldn't pass up the similarity of their titles to create this double-feature DVD.
		The actual transformations, several of which are shown in the film, are rather impressive for such an early film.

	Even a man who is pure at heart...
		The results, however, were well worth it, as the makeup for The Wolf Man is remarkable even today, equal in imagination and execution as the makeup the developed for the Frankenstein films.
		Returning to the formula used in the earlier films such as FRANKENSTEIN and THE MUMMY, the werewolf of THE WOLF MAN was a tragic figure, one who did not ask for his troubles and who was helpless to control his actions.
		For the rest of the Wolf Man series, he would pursue his new dream - ending his curse, be it by death or by a cure.

		For The Wolf Man Legacy Collection, the studio included the namesake 1941 release starring Lon Chaney Jr., as well as Frankenstein Meets The Wolf Man (1943), Werewolf of London (Universal's first attempt at a werewolf story) and 1948's She-Wolf of London.
		Chances are if you read the B Monster regularly, you're more than a little familiar with these films and their history and the circumstances of their release.
		A few of the scenes, characters and decisions in the film suggest the writers and director Stuart Walker were trying to replicate some of what James Whale had done so effortlessly in his groundbreaking horrors.

	THE WOLF MAN: THE LEGACY COLLECTION - DVD
		The Wolf Man is a beast without home or purpose, a welcome addition to monster tag-teams but otherwise a second-tier entity who failed to capture the public's imagination as something to be taken beyond face value.
		In-between the sliding accents and expository dialogue, the film manages to forget the whole reason we showed up in the first place, which is monster-on-monster action; for the most part, Talbot is mostly all about repressing his wolfish side, while Lugosi's Monster is a sad and disoriented creature until the final three minutes.
		The film's mix is also the least of the four films, yet its tinniness is not enough to merit more than a brief mention.

	The Wolf Man: The Legacy Collection DVD Set Review
		However there have been a few recent films that were released straight to video in the United States that I think are among the best werewolf horror pictures made in the last ten years or so.
		The only other strike against the werewolf genre film is that perhaps more than any other subgenre of horror picture, werewolf movies are inherently tragic and often can be depressing especially when you care about the protagonist.
		All four films are presented in their original (1.33:1) theatrical release aspect ratios and considering the age of the films, I think they look pretty good.

		The Lone Wolf and Cub films totally reconstructs the Samurai genre--they are so different from the traditional, honorable Samurai epics like the ZATOCIHI series.
		Tomikawa is clearly way too young when this was filmed (perhaps 4 or 5 years old), and its hard to imagine how seeing the decapitated heads and spraying arteries didn’t affect the poor kid’s mental state for the rest of his life.
		LONE WOLF AND CUB: SWORD OF VENGEANCE was filmed in TohoScope 2.35.1 ratio.
