Wolfman Reviews

This bit of drive-in trash from one of the sub-Mason-Dixon line moguls of movies, Earl Owensby, stars none other than Owensby himself. Set in Georgia in 1910, WOLFMAN revolves around the life of Colin Glasgow (Owensby), whose father, a scion of southern wealth, is slain by the sinister Reverend Leonard (Ed L. Grady). Reverend Leonard is responsible for maintaining a curse on Colin's family, instituted when a long-dead relative reneged on a Faustian pact with Satan. Colin inherits his murdered father's estate and lycanthropic mantle and goes loping through the night biting out throats. It's not that WOLFMAN is all that terrible, it's just a pointless rehashing of an age-old legend that offers nothing new. Being an Owensby movie, however, it made big bucks in southern drive-ins.
