## Description

Severely traumatized by a near-fatal encounter with a serial killer, TV newscaster Karen White (Dee Wallace) takes time off at a secluded retreat called the Colony.

Now she must fight not only for her life but for her soul!

Review: You'll HOOOOWWWLLL for The Howling in HD - I remember waaaay back in my high school days when we all loaded up to go see this movie in the theater. We were all scared out of our pants, and completely amazed at the special effects. I mean, we sat there and actually watched these people turn into werewolves right in front of the camera....it was AWESOME!! This was way before computer animation, so we had never seen anything quite like this before. Over the years, I've purchased this movie at least twice, with the last update being several years ago. I had feared that it might never get its turn on Blu-ray, that is until I saw a few months back that Shout Factory was going to be releasing it. Up to that point, the only other title I had in my collection from Shout was Phantasm 2, and I was totally satisfied with what they did to make it a special edition. Here's one thing that Shout has continued to do on almost every title I've since purchased from them. They will create new cover artwork for the film, which I love. But just in case you're not a fan of the new artwork, they also provide the original movie poster artwork on the flip side of the cover insert. There are some titles where I like the newly commissioned artwork, but then there are titles like The Howling where I just don't think you can ever outdo the original work with the claws ripping through and you see the lady's mouth screaming through one of the tears in the fabric. What I love about that artwork is it is not clear if she is being attacked by a werewolf, or if she is actually becoming one. I'm so glad that Shout continues to honor the work done by the original artists, thereby giving me the option to decide which cover I go with. Now let's get to the movie itself. It had been a few years since I've watched this film, so some of the frights still worked for me. I turned the lights off and the sound up as the iconic scratch marks rip across the screen, which as the camera pans out you realize spells The Howling. When the screen suddenly explodes, that got my adrenaline going, and now I was ready for the ride. The picture on this is just absolutely beautiful. I really have never seen such a clear print of this film. The colors are really rich and vibrant, and the blacks have a good solid look to them. If the picture doesn't blow you away, then the sound certainly will. They have done a great job with the surround effects. One of the things I had forgotten about this film was the music. The way the organ is used really brings you back to the glory days of the Universal monster films, but then the orchestral score is woven so beautifully which helps create a really creepy atmosphere. Listen for yourself, and I think you'll agree. The one thing I was afraid of seeing this in high definition was that it might make the special effects look a little less than pleasant. That is not the case at all. This still stands as a groundbreaking film in the use of special effects, and I think they hold up very well to some of the CGI crap I've seen. The only scene where it really stood out to me was the one where the man and woman turn into werewolves in the midst of there loving by the fire. The animation is much more apparent in HD, but it's not a big enough distraction to ruin the whole thing. It is amazing how they managed to pull off the effects with what they had to work with back then. One of the things I really like about Shout is the fact that many times they will produce some new special features for these new releases. But never fear, because the other features from the DVD are also included, some of which have had a visual upgrade since their original release. The new features are really cool, and give us some fresh insight to the behind-the-scenes goings on during the making of The Howling. Bottom Line: If you like a good old-fashioned horror film, then you owe it to yourself to get this movie. If you already own the DVD version from a few years back, forget it. The new sound and video upgrades are well worth a double-dip. Not to mention some new special features.
Review: They are out there, waiting... (Howls) - Great horror movie, and the cover is reversible! Was happy to get this, and finally watch it all the way through. I will say, the only tiny draw back, is that the book is better. It is a bit of a slow burner, so do be ready for it not to just go right into it. But in all, still a good piece of cinema!
