The Wolf Man

"The transfer for this Universal Studios fright feature has a few minor nicks here and there, but represents the several foggy set pieces in perfect fashion. The full-screen (standard) transfer has an aspect ratio of 1.33:1 and the audio track is in Dolby Digital 2.0 Mono. The commentary track is by Tom Weaver and, as with the track he provided for Creature From The Black Lagoon, it is full of humor and great background information on everything from the actors to comparisons between the original script and the final onscreen version. Included as a supplement is a half-hour documentary entitled ""Monster by Moonlight,"" which is hosted by John Landis and includes interviews with makeup wizard Rick Baker and screenplay author Curt Siodmak. The ""Wolf Man Archives"" contains a six-and-a-half-minute slide show set to music featuring stills, posters, and lobby cards. There is a ""Production Notes"" section and a ""Cast and Filmmakers"" section that contains succinct bios and filmographies for the film's stars and director. A theatrical trailer is included; it's rough shape is a perfect contrast to the nearly flawless state of the main-feature transfer. The ""Language Selections"" include English, with captions for the hearing-impaired, and French subtitles. Yet another disc in the Universal Studios Classic Monster Collection that will give this particular monster something to howl about."
