Wolf Man felt half-baked to me. Abbott shines the most in the midst of transformation. Julia Garner on the other hand wasn’t doing much and got outacted by the daughter. There’s a layer of the film that felt missing and I honestly thought it could’ve gotten meaner. I still fukks with Leigh, but Cianfrance would’ve taken this to another level had he stayed put.
The sound design was on point. Some genuinely gross out moments that I appreciated here. Transformation bits clearly got a lot of its inspiration from The Fly and lets the body horror shine in Cronenberg glory.
Leigh’s The Invisible Man, which is a good flick in its own right, looks like a masterpiece in comparison. Made for 7M too vs. the 25M invested in Wolf Man.
