The Howling captures the most interesting parts of werewolf mythology: the tension between the savage and the sophisticated, and whether embracing either is desirable—or even good. It asks compelling questions about the nature of man and beast while sinking its claws into the ’70s-era “look inward” self-help guru mentality. The script is tight, the effects are fantastic, and the acting is solid. A few things about the Colony (or, as we call it, Werewolf Summer Camp) don’t quite add up, but otherwise, the film checks all the boxes to deliver a genre staple and one of the best werewolf films to date.
