Was there ever a female wolfman ?

[torgospizza]

Oddly enough, the very first werewolf film, The Werewolf, featured a female werewolf. Unfortunately, it's a lost film.

Best werewolf female lead in a movie is Beast Of Bray Road. The wolf is a super hot chick. The movie is also based of a real life cryptozoology creature that is spotted on Bray Road in Wisconsin.

Need to add My Mom's A Werewolf to the list.

Great funny moment from Dr. Jeckyl and Sister Hyde.

Dr. Jeckyl suspects something is afoul and goes to open his anwar. He carefully approaches it, builds up suspense and when he whisks the door open there's a dress hanging there! He reacts with horror!

You would think it was an entirely different film from that 1 scene alone.

Go with Howling II. That's got Christopher Lee in it.

Well my understanding of events (tenuous as it is) is something like:

Aidan Turner had landed his role in Hobbit, Toby Whithouse and he sat down for the talk and they say they decided together that it was a good time to end his character. Close to six months later Russell Tovey announced that he'd be leaving the show to focus on his sitcom piece, and that left Sinead Keenan a bit out in the cold - no filmed show exit and dead by dialogue.
Tovey may have made the same decision either way, but I can't help but imagine that one of the main three leaving the show helped with uncertainty about where the production was going. Keenan was originally a bit character until the chemistry worked so well that she was written in, but without George there wouldn't really be much to hang her character on.

Essentially you get a more organic Battlestar 1980 situation in which only one principle is left (Lenora Chrichlow) to build the bridge to an entirely new cast, show dynamic and central plot device. Your results may vary depending on how much the interviewee is saying this was the show idea all along.

Maybe they should have just shelved the show for a year or two.
Because it's bloody awful now. I've stopped watching.

Is the Hobbit to blame for that tragedy?

I always believed that Hollywood had a juvenile line of thought towards the male/female monster concept. Where The Wolfman was the masculine and Cat People offered the feminine version. I remember many equal opportunity monster movies appearing in the equal rights era. Like, Dr. Jeckle and Sister Hyde, Lady Frankenstein.
Also on a post note. I never seen She-wolf of London. Probably never appealed to my local horror host.

I'm not sure I'll be able to forgive The Hobbit for shaking up the Being Human cast...

I never knew there was so many ... I'm embarrassed to admit I never seen American Werewolf In Paris and The Howling

Just see The Howling. Werewolf in Paris was terrible...

The Curse - In this well-done horror comedy, a young woman suffers from monthly werewolf transformations that coincide with her PMS. She will kill people until she manages to find a man she truly loves.

Fun Fact: Depending on the release version (there were multiple DVD versions), I may have done the art and marketing ads for this.

"She-Wolf of London," (Ah, I see it was right out of the gate!) 1946 - Universal, no werewolf = :( Next you'll tell me The Cat Creeps didn't have any cats!
There was a short television series in the 90's by the same name, but she actually was a wolf-lady.
Then, of course... Shakira.

Oh and Ginger Snaps is pretty neat, though unfortunately the prequel-sequel, Ginger Snaps Back was basically the same story, same actors shot in period outfits (that is not a The Curse pun).

I'm not sure I'll be able to forgive The Hobbit for shaking up the Being Human cast...

Don't forget:
The Company Of Wolves (1984).
There are some she-wolves in that.

The NBC tv series, Grimm, had a female Blutbad (werewolf).
