Tonight:

The Werewolf

My opinion: A somewhat unsung little gem from 1956. A B-movie, shot on a lot of real locations, it's a simple, straightforward story about when bad shit happens to an ordinary guy. Some nice makeup (Clay Campbell recycled his lycanthrope design from 1943's Return of the Vampire and doubled the hair), a couple of genuinely scary scenes and a very sympathetic performance by Steven Ritch as the title character. Also, IMHO, this was probably one of the best roles Don Megowan ever had - unless you've seen Creation of the Humanoids!.

If you've never seen this film, I'd say it's a good way to kill two hours. And Sven's commentaries are always informative.

"For me, there's only my wife..."

"Sure I cook with wine - sometimes I even add it to the food!"

"When life itself seems lunatic, who knows where madness lies?"

"It was a grass harp... And we listened."

"Do any human beings ever realize life while they live it? Every, every minute?"

"No. Saints and poets, maybe... they do some."
