From Blumhouse and visionary writer-director Leigh Whannell, the creators of the chilling modern monster tale The Invisible Man, comes a terrifying new lupine nightmare: Wolf Man. Golden Globe nominee Christopher Abbott (Poor Things, It Comes at Night) stars as Blake, a San Francisco husband and father, who inherits his remote childhood home in rural Oregon after his own father vanishes and is presumed dead. With his marriage to his high-powered wife, Charlotte (Emmy winner Julia Garner; Ozark, Inventing Anna), fraying, Blake persuades Charlotte to take a break from the city and visit the property with their young daughter, Ginger (Matlida Firth; Hullraisers, Coma). But as the family approaches the farmhouse in the dead of night, they're attacked by an unseen animal and, in a desperate escape, barricade themselves inside the home as the creature prowls the perimeter. As the night stretches on, however, Blake begins to behave strangely, transforming into something unrecognizable, and Charlotte will be forced to decide whether the terror within their house is more lethal than the danger without.

Critics Consensus

Director Leigh Whannell's attempt at bringing a fresh psychological dimension to the Wolf Man comes at the expense of proper scares, although fans of body horror will still find some tasty morsels to chew on.

Audience Says

Wolf Man could鈥檝e been a contender in the werewolf canon and comes so close thanks to its immersive atmosphere and capable cast, but it is ultimately severed by its tepid approach at horror delivered at a languid pace.

Kermode and Mayo's Take (YouTube)

It's a bit of a sheep in in Wolf's clothing... it's just a bit dull.

Compared to The Invisible Man it's a serious misstep for Whannell. Compared to The Mummy, well, that might have been a wreck of a movie, but at least it was occasionally fun.

Thoughtful, quietly provocative and freaky.

A modernized take on a classic story. Good atmosphere, scares, and an emotional core keeping you tethered to the characters. While pretty by-the-numbers narratively, the thrilling pace and score make for a solid film

Rated: 2.5/5 •

Houston Press

Whannell's approach wants to recall the dying humanity in the werewolf character that dates all the way back to Lon Chaney, Jr., but the marrying of ancient fears with modern tech that made <i>Invisible Man</i> so intriguing is completely missing here.

Rated: 2.5/5 •

Jeffrey M. Anderson

Common Sense Media

As he did with his excellent Universal monster movie reboot The Invisible Man, writer-director Leigh Whannell reinvents the werewolf motif in this spooky, streamlined, emotional chiller.

Rated: 4/5 •

Unfortunately, it didn鈥檛 quite hit the mark. I wasn鈥檛 invested in the characters because it didn鈥檛 give us much of a backstory for us to eventually care about what will happen to them. And I honestly could not even recall their names.

Rated 2 out of 5 stars
