While the story and acting are a bit weak, the cinematography, special effects and mood of the movie are well done The movie harkens back to the horror genre of the 40-50s. If you like good old-fashioned horror, and the classic Lon Chaney Wolfman, this is the ticket. My question is: Would Benico del Toro's character have completely lost his English accent from him time in NY? Perhaps a minor detail, but inquiring minds want to know!
