    Storyline

    Edit
    • Trivia
      The bear owned by the gypsies was actually recycled animation from Kultainen kompassi (2007). The Polar Bear was changed into a Grizzly for this movie.
    • Goofs
      Gwen regrets getting Lawrence involved, saying that if she had never sent him that letter, he would still be in New York. She sent Lawrence a letter when Ben went missing in the theatrical version, but in the extended cut she went to tell him in person instead. Yet the "letter" line is retained in both versions even though it doesn't make sense in the latter.
    • Quotes

      [first lines]

      Maleva: [voiceover] Even a man who is pure in heart and says his prayers by night, may become a wolf when the wolfbane blooms, and the autumn moon is bright.

    • Crazy credits
      The Universal logo at the start is the one from the 1940s, as a homage to the time when the original Wolfman was made.
    • Alternate versions
      The Unrated Director's Cut includes additional scenes not seen in the theatrical release:
      • The Universal logo at the beginning of the film is the 1940's logo used in the original "The Wolfman"
      • Ben Talbot's death is slightly longer.
      • An entirely new sequence showing Lawrence Talbot performing in a London play. Gwen Conliffe visits him in his dressing room post-show and interrupts a party to inform him that his brother Ben has gone missing. Lawrence dismisses her by saying that he cannot help as he is contracted to do 30 performances and is leaving for the States in the morning. This sequence creates an anachronism/goof later in the film as instead of mentioning her visiting him in London, Lawrence continuously references a letter that Gwen sent him which brings him to Blackmoor (as seen in the theatrical version).
      • As Lawrence travels by train to Blackmoor, there is a scene with an uncredited Max Von Sydow as an old man who gives Lawrence his silver wolf-head cane as protection (the cane that Sir John Talbot wields at the end of the film).
      • The tavern scene is slightly longer. After MacQueen's "melted down me mum's silverware" story, the villagers scoff at the notion of the killer being a werewolf, and blame the Talbots' misfortune on their dealings with the gypsies. One of the villagers calls Lawrence's late mother a "crazy gypsy whore", and Lawrence angrily confronts him and throws a drink in his face. After Lawrence is kicked out of the tavern, the villagers realize his identity.
      • When the posse fires into the hole after MacQueen's arm is ripped off, a rifle slug nails MacQueen in the chest, killing him. Additionally, there are a number of deleted and extended scenes:
      • After his attack, Lawrence has a short conversation with Gwen where she blames herself for the tragedy that has befallen the Talbots. Lawrence looks out the window and sees the posse that has come to round him up and tells Gwen to get his father while he goes outside to talk to them (the "you bear the mark of the beast" scene)
      • Lawrence's conversation with Singh is slightly longer. After Lawrence asks him why he never left Blackmoor, Singh explains that Sir John saved his life many years ago and that as a result he vowed to stay by his side.
      • The mausoleum transformation scene is slightly longer.
      • The London chase scene is longer. The Wolfman walks into a costume party / opera performance and is mistaken for a costumed patron. He attacks one of the patrons but is chased off by Aberline and his men.
      • Additionally, the Wolfman crashes a puppet theater performance in a park and kills the puppeteer. Aberline chases him out of the park and into the path of a steam engine (as seen in the theatrical version).
      • The final fight is slightly longer and sequenced differently than the theatrical version.

    Most underrated remake EVER!
    Seriously sooo underrated...simply because its a 'remake'

    Great effects, amazing actors, great story line. Surprisingly heartbreaking in the end. I couldn't belive how good this movie was to be honest. I'm in even more disbelieve of how low it's rated on here. Deserves at least a 7.5 AT LEAST.

    Watch it for yourself and decide, but it's a definite winner for me.
