Spent the whole movie thinking how good a dark, gore-filled remake of the original Universal WOLF MAN could have been. To waste such a stellar cast on a script this flimsy? Joe Johnston must be barking! I've read this was star Benicio Del Toro's pet (excuse the pun...) project - so maybe blame goes to him for not ensuring a more decent script. This just makes me want to see AN AMERICAN WEREWOLF IN LONDON again - at least that had a sense of humour and proper scares! Entertaining as a throwback to the horror genre of yesteryear, but a disappointment. Unengaging, far from thrilling - yup, a dog's breakfast.
