As a seasoned gamer of life, hailing from the misty moors of Transylvania, I must say that the upcoming 4K release of “The Wolfman” has me howling with excitement! Having grown up listening to the haunting yarns spun by my elders around the flickering hearth, this modern adaptation of a classic monster tale holds a special place in my heart.
For the very first time, the legend springs to life in stunning 4K clarity when the moon is full. Boutique studio Shout! Factory will be releasing the meticulously restored 4K version of the 2010 film “The Wolfman”, starring Benecio del Toro as a man under a terrible curse who turns into a werewolf during the blooming of wolfbane and when the autumn moon is bright. This timely release, available from October 22nd, offers fans not only the theatrical version but also an unrated extended cut by director Joe Johnston, featuring an additional 16 minutes of footage.
In a modern adaptation of the 1941 Universal Monster movie where Lon Chaney Jr. portrayed the wolf character, this film also features Emily Blunt, Hugo Weaving, and Sir Anthony Hopkins in prominent roles. Apart from the standard Collector’s Edition (which is now available for pre-order on Amazon), a special edition of the three-disc 4K set from Shout! comes with an exclusive touch: a limited-edition poster displaying the original movie artwork, as well as another limited-edition poster and alternate slipcover adorned with fresh artwork by the CRP Group.
In this movie titled “The Wolfman,” del Toro portrays Lawrence Talbot, a troubled aristocrat who comes home at the plea of his brother’s girlfriend, Gwen (Blunt), to locate her missing lover. Upon reconnecting with his distant father (Hopkins), Talbot embarks on a quest to find his brother and learns that a monstrous creature with an unquenchable thirst for blood has been terrorizing the villagers. To add to the mystery, a suspicious inspector from Scotland Yard (Weaving) arrives to examine the situation. As Talbot pursues the terrifying beast, he uncovers his own chilling fate.
As a gaming enthusiast diving into the latest edition of The Wolfman, you’ll get to explore deleted and extended scenes, along with two alternate endings. You’ll also have access to archival featurettes from previous Blu-ray releases, plus fresh content – such as a brand-new audio commentary and an exclusive behind-the-scenes peek at The Wolfman, featuring Academy Award-winning special effects makeup artist David Elsey, who collaborated with Rick Baker on this masterpiece.
