      Ghost Rider, Nightcrawler, or Magik can debut when someone leaves or gets killed off. Nightmare, Mephisto, or the Scarlet Witch would make a great horror villain. I’d love for it to be R-rated as well because the MCU having a mature/gory section of supernatural anti-heroes could be money.

    The werewolf look was very reminiscent of Universal’s “The Wolf Man” from 1941 starting Lon Chaney, Jr. the funny thing about that movie is when he transforms, his clothes magically change as well. Just something they thought no one in 1941 would notice I guess.

    The design of the werewolf is both accurate to the Marvel comics and the old Universal werewolf movie: Around the 80s, as costumes, make-up and practical effects (And later special effects) got better, werewolf designs became animalistic and wolf-like in design, but in the old days of cinema, the design was very much what you saw here and survived for a long time; that is why, if you watch movies like the1941 *The Wolf Man* movie, or it's 2010 remake, or other movies such as *Teen Wolf* (1985) or *The Monster Squad* (1987), you will find their designs of werewolves to be similar to this one (It's usually when the movie genre leans less in the comedic and goes more into the horror that scarier, monstrous wolves design like in *Underworld* (2003) or *Ginger Snaps* (2000) or *The Howling* (1981) and others where you'll have the more wolf like heads/faces)

    Because her father had the Bloodstone at the time of her conception Elsa inherited a portion of it’s power into her blood. That’s why she was able to shrug off getting her head bashed into that part of the maze. She isn’t Hulk or Thor levels of durable, but she is well above a normal human even without the Bloodstone. Having the Bloodstone itself substantially increases that along with her other gifts.
    Fun fact: In the comics because of her inherent gifts from the Bloodstone Elsa is immune to vampirism and her blood can actually cure it.

    The original "Werewolf by Night" comic had a very conventional old fashioned werewolf design, inspired by the likes of Lon Chaney Jr. in "The Wolf Man" (limited of course by the prosthetics of the time, basically a hairy human face). Which works out pretty well here since this is also an homage to Universal horror movies. I think some modern comics have reinterpreted him as a more modern werewolf with a "wolfy" head.

    Werewolf by Night has another form. The one in here is the "forced transformation" form, where he looks like a humanoid wolf. This is the form he uses when he needs to use his powers for doing good or combat. Then he has the "full moon" form, which is more savage like the Hulk with no control. That is more Wolf-Like form that you wanted. Like he said, He locks himself up during the full moon in order to not hurt anyone.

    Fun little fact: The transformation scene was done with practical effects in-camera. Giaccino said - "It took months to make that work, because it was all done in-camera, too. That whole shot, that's not a VFX shot. It was crazy to try and sort that out. The only thing that was not on set when we shot it were the bars. We had to add those in later because of the way where the projector was projecting the shadow of the transformation."

    Marvel has a solid selection of horror titles, in addition to the superheroes it's best known for.
    Both Man-Thing and Moonknight first appeared in Werewolf by Night, while Blade first appeared in Morbius, I think.
    If you want a fun, campy werewolf film, with questionable acting, see, "The Howling," from 1981.
    If you want a solid horror film with a unique story, well written and excellently acted, watch, "Wolfen," released the same year.
    The Howling, as a more traditional werewolf film, overshadowed Wolfen, but the latter was the (much) better movie.

    The transition from black & white to color mirrors the transition of the bloodstone wielder from the black & white, good vs evil nature of the hunters before (which is the old-school monster genre) to Elsa's more nuanced stewardship, where not all monsters must be killed - starting with Jack and Ted (Man-Thing, btw), who had their monster self imbued upon them, and not evil in their natures.

  • @seanhoutx

    It's interesting that Jack was known to have 100 "deaths," but the others had "kills" It makes more sense now knowing he's the werewolf. Did you catch during the credits that it shows Aunt France's hand coming out of her tomb? I wonder if she came to life. Hmmm. I find interesting that when Jack was asked if sniffing a person's scent actually protected them, he replied "once," with.a slight gesture of sorrow, like maybe it was a long-lost loved one. Although, you preferred him to look more wolf-like, I think they were going for an old-timey look, like when they started making these kinds of horror movies, hence the black-n-white treatment.

    As you may have guessed by the screen name, I'm a huge fan of werewolves. The one used here is a classic style, more "Universal Monsters" style wolfman. My favorite werewolf LOOKS (not necessarily the best movies) are the ones from "Underworld" and "Van Helsing." I think the movie version of Lupin in Harry Potter was too gangly and, frankly, hairless.

      I wasn't a fan of the Lycans from Underwold tbh (they looked more rat-like than wolf-like imo), & I hated Lupin's hairless werewolf form, but I *loved* the werewolf design from Van Helsing lol.
      My personal favourite werewolf form is probably the one from Goosebumps tho tbh (w/ Van Helsing at a close second).
      I also don't mind partial wolf forms (i.e. Teen Wolf, Dark Shadows, Grimm, etc) or full wolf forms lol (i.e. Twilight, TVD, Bitten, Shadowhunters, etc).

    He was modeled after the old comic book look. Moon Knight was introduced in his comic where they battled. I think Werewolf By Knight has been around since the early 70s. Also, Ted is called Man-Thing, another Marvel comic property. You may see more of them, Jack, Man-Thing, Elsa, since Marvel is moving into the more supernatural part of things, Moon Knight, Blade, I will assume Ghost Rider, etc.

    The song playing during the color saturation, "Over the Rainbow," is a nod to Wizard of Oz when the movie goes from black and white to color. Someone had to point that out to me, but I did really love it as an almost symbol to "We now return you to your normal Marvel programing," especially with two notable marvel characters casually talking back and forth at the end of the picture.
    Ted/Man-Thing plays a big support role in marvel universe and comics, with a very interesting origin and insight to the large cosmic, so we might see him in the future. Jack/Werewolf by Night might play a bigger role in the Blade-led Midnight Suns. Even Elsa Bloodstone joins a team with Monica Rambeau/Spectrum/Photon/Pulsar/Captain Marvel in a team called Nextwave. Could see them on Disney+ like Defenders were on Netflix.

    In Werewolf By Night (the comic) Jack's appearance was based on the old Universal "Wolfman" with Lon Cheney Jr.
    "Ted" - better known as "Man-Thing" - guards the Nexus of Realities in the Florida Everglades. The tag-line for his comic was "Whatever knows fear burns at the touch of the Man-Thing".
    Lots of people think Man-Thing is Marvel's rip-off version of DC's Swamp Thing, but Man-Thing's first comic appearance is two months before Swamp Thing's.

    Dr. Theodore "Ted" Sallis is called Man-Thing and is a character that was created by Stan Lee, Roy Thomas, and Gerry Conway, plus artist Gray Morrow. It was once a person but through scientific and magical means, was turned into the Man-Thing. "He" lives in a swamp where realities converge, so you'll probably be seeing him again in future Marvel films and series. For many many years fans of Man-Thing have been wanting a film, so it's a big surprise to suddenly see him pop up in this.

    It was fun visiting with my old friends, Ted Sallis and Jack Russell (Oh, yes, you did hear me right!). Man-Thing and Werwolf by Night were fun books in the 70s. A little note concerning Ted's powers... Those who know fear burn at the touch of the Man-Thing (Sounds like a PSA for an STD... 8/)
    I like the aesthetic of the whole production. From the wardrobe and art deco of the old 30-40s Universal Monster films to the stylized monster trophies and Jack's make-up reminiscent of the creatures from The Outer Limits and The Twilight Zone of the early 60s.
    Marvel's going to do a horror storyline called Midnight Sons and featuring Doctor Strange, Blade and (I think) Ghost Rider... It would be great if, Jack, Ted and Elsa would all drop by...
    Cheers!

Diving into the Marvel monster titles from the '70s was long overdue, and they certainly did an excellent job of it. (Could Frankenstein, Dracula, and Ghost Rider be next?)

    I really enjoyed this and would love to see more of these characters there has been a rumour around for a while of a team up of the supernatural themed characters like Werewolf by Night, Blade, Man Thing and Mobius we'll have to wait and see after how badly She-Hulk shat the bed.

    The huge monster is called Man-Thing in the comics, mutated form of a scientist named Theodore "Ted" Sallis. This version is a lot more intelligent than the comic version, but what they have in common is, "Whatever knows fear burns at the Man-Thing's touch." You won't burn if you're not afraid of it. It has some similarities to DC Comics' Swamp Thing.

    Nearly 20 years ago, WBN was first announced as one of the next Marvel characters to be on film.
    WBN almost started filming in the 2000s and then was it postponed.
    Man-Thing (Ted or Ted Sallis) did get his own movie in 2005.
    Then WBN was back in development during the jumpoff of Marvel Studios.
    I've only imagined what it could've been years ago.
    But it was better than thought of when it premiered.
    Now how Jack Russell goes further into the MCU couid be an interesting journey.
    Eventually we'll get to another team of heroes called Midnight Suns, which are basically Supernatural Avengers.

    The attention to detail to make it look like an old b&w film was great, even down to the small white circles in the upper right-hand corner every ten minutes or so that use to signal projectionists to start the next reel of film in a few seconds so they could switch over to continue the film uninterrupted. Really hope we get a full series sooner rather than later. As burned out as I am on all the multiverse/quantam realm storylines, a new outlier series like this is fun.

    Marvel has previously announced another Special, a Christmas Special featuring the Guardians of the Galaxy, set between Guardians 2 and Guardians 3. Many are also assuming with the success of Werewolf by Night that Marvel may have other Specials on the way as well.
    Ted Sallis, aka Man-Thing, doesn't have fire powers, what he does is his body excretes a substance that burns anyone he touches if they feel fear towards him. He's actually extremely important as he's the protector of the entrance to the Nexus of All Realities, a doorway to a realm where you can access every Universe in the Multiverse, so it's likely we'll see him again in future Multiverse stories in the MCU.
    Many are also assuming we will see Jack and Elsa again in the Blade movie, currently set to release September 2024, and that they may team up in a potential Midnight Sons project (a team comprised of various mystical/supernatural characters that deals with the mystical/supernatural side of Marvel) along with Moon Knight and other supernatural/paranormal based characters.

Some people get stretchy or turn invisible, some turn into rage monsters and poor Ted turned into a fear burning magical plant. Ted mostly hangs out with wizards but Jack is a good boy to hang out with...unless the moon is full.
