Where wolf? There wolf!
By MichaelN from London , 17 Oct 2005[Highly rated reviewer]
Ha ha, what a great film! I remember being scared by this when I was younger and saw it on TV.
A millionnaire gathers a few people together at his swanky mansion, one of them is a werewolf - it's up to you to guess - there's even a werewolf break towards the end of the film where you get the chance.
The film's got funky '70s music, a great atmosphere. Ahhh, they don't make 'em like they used to!!- Was this review helpful to you?

(8)Beast? What beast?
By RJNeb2 (924 reviews) from London , 03 Jun 2012A surprisingly refreshing wrinkle on the old werewolf story – combining it with an Agatha Christie 10 Little Indians slant – finds big game hunter Calvin Lockhart inviting some guests to his house in the country in order to unmask one of them as a throat-slashing monster. The film even stops off midway through for a “Werewolf Break”, giving you 30 seconds to deduce who you think is the culprit. It’s all quite good fun in a rather naïve kind of way, enough that you’re prepared to overlook the appalling day-for-night shooting and the fact the terrifying beast of the title is quite obviously an Alsatian.- Was this review helpful to you?

Cult Classic
By a customer , 09 Sep 2011classic cult horror, i was petrified of this 30 years ago, not so much now as the werewolves of today are truly frightening at sight, still none the less a cracker of nostalgic horror- Was this review helpful to you?

Underated classic, see it to believe it!
By a customer from Aberdeen , 23 Aug 2010I love this film. It is a completely underated slice of 1970's cheese.
The werewolf break is inspired, also noteable for having a black leading man,who is in no way reinforcing typical stereotypes on celluoid, as Hollywood et al, were wont to do back then, and still now.
I loved this film as a child, and still rate it. Would highly recommend if you will allow yourself to surrender to the inanity of it all.- Was this review helpful to you?
