What character is this based on?

None from current MCU movies/shows.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Werewolf_by_Night

Would be better if it was Whenwolf

So I guess studios are now just going to churn out regular movies, have some random comic book character cameos in them, and call them "part of the XXX universe" so people will go see them. Wild times.

Hey, if it's quality horror I'm down. I'm still waiting on something to be done with Blade.

I'll do you one better - if it was Whywolf.

Saw it tonight and enjoyed it for what it was. I was definitely left wanting more and especially trying to see how this might be connect to the greater MCU. Blade maybe?

I'll fallback on a classic

Very much enjoyed it. Great little Halloween special and introduction into the MCU monsterverse.

Watched it last night and enjoyed it a lot. Like someone's else said, left me wanting more. I wanna know more about man thing

Just finished it and thought it was actually a lot of fun. A few pretty cool shots. Enjoyable filmmaking for what it was

I loved it and was honestly shocked at the level of violence (not that I'm complaining) coming from a Disney property.

This sucker has:

A dude getting his ear bitten off (blood spatter)

Another dude getting a spear in the neck and then getting silenced as he's dying so another killer doesn't hear him

Chick getting owned in the forehead with a broadsword (blood spatter)

Chick getting her leg sliced open (blood spatter)

Dude getting his whole head burned

Old chick getting whole body burned then getting chunked into a coffin and the dead corpses head flying towards the camera

A werewolf going full on 28 Days Later on a bunch of goons and just making it rain blood.

This was awesome!!!!

I think it's just sad that nobody is asking Howwolf.

And you didn't even mention dude getting his arm chopped off and then the severed arm used as a weapon.

Knew I was gonna forget a few of them. I think that was actually the first gory moment in the film.

I really enjoyed this more than I thought I would. I'd put it up there near the top for this phase. Would have been cool to introduce Moon Knight and Blade in the same style of this short film.

I enjoyed! I'd like to see more of these characters, and more of these one-off short film types of programs if they have good ideas for them. I guess I'm the Guardians Christmas special is in that vein as well - not sure what else would work.

Saw it this weekend and enjoyed it for what it was.

Really surprised me. Wasn't expecting it to be this good. Gael Garcia Bernal does a great job with his character.

Quoting myself here. I read a rumor that the Wakanda show and whatever Shang-Chi sister spin-off project were going to become one-offs like this as well. I think that would be great - not everything needs to be 6 weeks long with weekly cliffhangers and teases.

I was a huge fan of the Werewolf by Night and Tomb of Dracula comics when I was in highschool. They were already old then (70s 80s), but I bought as many as I could find, they were super cheap at the time and the art was unlike anything else at the time (90s). May have to give the Red Rat a few bucks to see this. Hopefully Tomb of Dracula is on the way.

Very much enjoyed this.

I'm not a fan of "modern horror" but this was just the right amount of camp/marvel humor/classic horror.

Well, that was a pretty fun 50 minutes. Fits right in for Halloween.

I enjoy some of Michael Giacchino's score work, and to my surprise, he did a fine job directing this.

just watched Werewolf by Night...and it was really good.

Garcia Bernal and Laura Donnelly were great.

Man-Thing was very well done.

hope to see more of them in the future
