Being Human, Wolfman, Twilight Wolves, and True Blood in this Week’s Werewolf Bites!

There’s a lot going on in the werewolf world; hopefully that means that the reign of fruity vampire movies is coming to an end, and they’ll be shining the spotlight on werewolves again. Hopefully, The Wolfman didn’t ruin our street cred too badly. And speaking of:

Can you believe it, —The Wolfman won an Oscar for makeup!? Sure, fair enough, the makeup was okay, –there wasn’t as much CGI as one might have expect, so there -was- actual makeup work involved. Although, to be honest, the ‘makeup’ Oscar shouldn’t even be allowed to be given to anyone who has -ever- used CGI creature effects.

And elsewhere in the werewolf world, such as Being Human, things are getting pretty crazy. The werewolf ‘Josh’ on the North American remake of the hit show from the UK is pretty badass, but even can’t touch the new werewolves in England. As far as Josh goes, he’s having major issues with his mom… she thinks he’s gay for Aidan. Eek.

The werewolves of Twilight have invaded Canada! You lucky Canadian bitches… apparently, these guys are just walking around Vancouver, hanging out! If they snag a Canadian girlfriend, I think I’ll die of a broken heart.It’s bad enough we have to deal with the inevitability of defeat on Team Jacob… Seriously though, if I lived in Vancouver, I’d be spending a lot of time driving around praying for  a star sighting.

True Blood has some new werewolves coming to the cast, –in fact, of the new werewolves is a big badass, set to become Alcide’s new leader. How that will go, no one knows… yet. But I’m betting there’s definitely going to be some friction. Take a few male dogs, put them together, and wait: there’s always going to be a fight. Whether Alcide submits to leadership should be an interesting side-plot!

Huge collection of stills from Red Riding Hood just hit the net, –they’re not quite spoilers, but they’re definitely hot. There are a few images from production, but most of them are actual scene-shots, and this is definitely got me all geeked out for the movie. Is it pathetic that I’ll probably be taking my gramma to see this one with me? Hey, grandmothers can like werewolves too!

  2. You can check out my book Ebon Moon if you want some old-school bad ass werewolves. You can find it on Amazon, Kindle, Barnes and Noble, etc or go to my website:

    Read the reviews it’s gotten so far since coming out at the end of last year.

  3. True Blood Weres are the biggest disspointment on the show. Adding more of them isn’t going to change how pathetic they are.

    1. Why? Never saw the show so I have to ask.

      Ps. from what movie/show is the picture in the top? Because no matter whether the guy turned into an actual wolf or a wolf-man his face should be much more bloody.

  4. True Blood Weres get their ass kicked by everyone! They get run over by a van and die, shot and killed also. They also get overpowered by human beings and vampires!

  5. Somethings important must be changed about the depiction of werewolves in movies or tv shows if we want to see them flourish, in the first place! Look at those vampires. They were sleeping in coffins in the day time and they were hunting at night. There were not enough attraction for the viewers and it was all the same, i mean the context was limited, not that much intriguing. One day they decided to convert the mean, cruel, savage vampire characters into something else, into something which is far more intresting so that they successed to draw viewers to cinema again with the new vampire figure. Just look at the twilight movies. It sucks!(for me) They are not like vampires, stake doesn’t work in order to kill them, they have witch powers, the sun light do not harm them, they are so powerful that they can kill Cont Dracula in the blink of an eye, and also the producers made up and put in some different and silly werewolves motives in most of their show that is for vampires to kill them easily which gives them reputation and makes the story more interesting. And they are lover! Because of this whatever they do is acceptable even if it is worse than what our old vampire motives had done in their time because they “feel” sad for that afterwards, which shows them kind-hearted and in these movies werewolves are weak and villian for example; Vampire diaries. Anyways, I believe a director or a producer should consider these before they film a movie or a soap opera about werewolves. I will tell my opinion on how werewolves should be portrayed in top of the things above, as well. They should transform at will! Their transformation must be like Tyler’s in VD, very well designed.( I am not talking about the final shape he becomes) They should have agility in both form; human and wolf. In human form they should be powerful like in “The gates” They should be very strong in wolf form unlike in “The gates” No one can hit and injure them with the grip of his rifle!! Wolf form should look like real dangerous not as puppies in twilight and stupid lame true blood wolves, we can add in this list VD werewolves. They should be important people not a pack of punk wolves wandering around the forests and cities aimlessly. And FULL MOON, that must be involved in werewolves, making them more powerful but eventually it is called “curse” maybe only one day of month they become unconscious! At least it sounds better than to have strenght only one day in a month and being kicked in the rest of the days by vampires :)Also, it should have a really good storyline like VD. We need to watch it not just to see werewolves tear humans and vampires apart! you get it… I know it is long but i expressed “some” of my ideas about this subject and will be glad to see any other one’s views on this…

  6. i personaly think that the werewolfs thats in being human, that only transform at full moon and wake up naxt morning in the middle of nowehere is far better than those in exsample twilight who can transform when thay want , and have full contoll what thay do when thay transform , but what do you think?

  7. You got to be kidding, right? Whoever wrote this post has terrible taste. You have the nerve to call those “things” werewolves?! The only true werewolf mentioned here was the wolfman who was a read BADASS and didnt get the cred he deserved. The others mentioned here are utter BULLSH**t! Each one of them gets there ass handed to them easily on a regular basis. The us bH werewolves are hairless mongrels. And the worst are twilight ones, who all about “finding my mate” crap! “squick”
