In order of when they were released, here are my own personal top 10:
(By the way one of the rules I made for my list is that the werewolf/wolves must actually be a threat to people, which is why TEEN WOLF does not make the list)
1.The Wolfman (1941)
2.An American Werewolf In London
3.The Howling
4.Wolfen
5.Silver Bullet
6.Wolf
7.Ginger Snaps
8.Dog Soldiers
9.Cursed
10.The Wolfman (2010)
1 The wolf man (1941)
2 An American werewolf in London
3 Silver bullet
4 Bad moon
5 Wolf
6 The Howling
7 Wer (2013)
Even though it doesn't count I'll give one of my 80s favorites Teen wolf an honorary mention.
I didn't care for the Howling that much cause I like the book better and hated some of the changes they made for the movie. I hated the Wolfman remake when it came out but have come to like it but mostly in a so bad it's good kind of way. The scene where the villagers all fall into their own traps is hilarious as is the mental institution scene where Larry is put on display in front of a bunch of people. With those scenes it really feels more like it's making fun of the villagers and town officials from some of the older movies.
shareYou should check out Curse of the Werewolf, from Hammer films.
shareMy favorite werewolf movie is Return of the Vampire.
shareI'd have to include Werewolf of London from 1935 on that list.
Also it is far from the best or even a really good movie but The Beast Must Die is entertaining.
