The Wolf Man Wolfs Out!

Thursday, 20 March 2008
I'm still worried that the change of director from Mark Romanek to Joe Johnston will result in a lesser film than promised (with rumours that Andrew Kevin Walker's well-regarded script has also been tinkered with, too)... but, thank god An American Werewolf In London's Rick Baker is still involved!

Just check these out:

Absolutely perfect. It pays homage to the original Wolf Man make-up worn by Lon Chaney Jr, but is obviously far, far superior. If they had the appliances and know-how back in 1941, this is exactly what the original make-up team would have created. Bravo all round. I just hope everything else about this film has the same quality. I'm certainly very hopeful.
