This is the Pure Movies review of The Wolfman, directed by Joe Johnston and starring Emily Blunt, Benicio Del Toro, Anthony Hopkins, Hugo Weaving, Art Malik and Roger Frost. The vampire market has seen something of a resurgence of late. Like Dracula himself emerging from the dark recesses of his coffin, the genre has risen to the forefront, from the teen-angst of the twilight series to the more overt eroticism of True Blood.

It is inevitable, then, that Universal would turn their heads to other forties horror icons; in this case The Wolf Man.
