Wolf Man
I'm not usually excited by the very idea of remakes, and the original 1941 Wolf Man is a spectacular must-watch Horror flick that shaped the very idea of werewolves as we imagine them to be today.
Yet this project looks good.
It would be great to have that sensibility in our CGI world, and the always-excellent Benicio Del Toro (who steps into Lou Chaney Jr's shoes to play Wolf Man) is an obsessed collecter of Wolf Man memorabilia and utterly geeky about the film. Which hopefully means the spirit will remain as hairy as it was.
Directed by Joe Johnston, the film also stars the delicious Emily Blunt as well as the underrated Hugo Weaving -- who looks remarkably like Billy Bob Thornton in this particular photograph.
Looks fun, what?
