“An almost unparalleled horror mystery that gave its werewolves fangs and humanity.” – Felix Vasquez Jr., Cinema Crazed

“Essential viewing for anyone with a serious interest in the history of the genre.” – Jennie Kermode, Eye for Film

 “The Howling is Network meets The Island of Dr Moreau, a treatise on nature versus nurture that isn’t afraid to poke fun at its practitioners, and while it’s not as entertaining as American Werewolf, in the final reckoning it is in many ways … superior. ” – J.R. Southall, Starburst
