Werewolf Movie Image Repository 1990s

Continuing my screencap project of all the werewolves and werewolf transformation effects in film, this post is for all the stuff from the 1990s. The 90s definitely don't have as lush an offering as the 80s, but it still has some really fantastic prosthetics, costumes, puppets and effects. I'm also including some were-cats, because the 90s had two very cool shapeshifter movies dealing with cat monsters. 
 
Unfortunately, the 90s is also were we start to see CGI take the place of practical effects and other effects that would otherwise be achieved by time-lapse, painting on/altering the film itself, or through methods like stop motion. In most cases, CGI looks pretty bad and it's best put to use either for assisting practical props or for scenes that might otherwise be dangerous for a human or animal actor. My other CGI hot take is that it often looks bad because VFX studios tend to be non-union and it's incredibly exploited labor. 90s CGI is also not as refined as it becomes in the decades following.

What I'll be including: full length films, made for tv films, short films. The werewolves will range from the classic Wolf-Man style to more animalistic interpretations. I will also include films that aren't exclusively werewolf-centric, as long at they prominently feature a werewolf at some point (ie: anthologies like Trick r Treat, multiple creature films like Waxwork or Monstersquad, etc). Along with werewolves, I'll also be including a handful of films that deal with similar shape-shifters such as were-cats (Junoon, Sleepwalkers, etc) because there's not a ton of those. Basically, as long as there's a shape-shifter I'll probably include it.

What I will not be including: tv shows, commercials, video games, music videos, movies where the werewolf is only shown as an actual wolf or dog- unless there's an impressive transformation scene with practical or digital effects. If you wanted pictures of normal wolves, those are easy to find elsewhere. I'm also not including the Harry Potter movies or the Twilight Movies because there's enough pictures of them online and I do not want to see these movies. I'm also not including any films where "werewolf" just means a guy with fangs/creature contact lenses and nothing else, there's got to be some kind of actual monstrous and inhuman elements.

The Werewolf Movie Image Repository 2010s

From the late 90s on, werewolf movies have definitely gone down in quality with regards to practical effects, with CGI taking a center stage- some of it decent, some of it very bad (blame the fact that vfx studios are generally non-union, overworked, underpaid, and made to make a lot of last minute changes). There's also a higher volume of movies, due to digital film-making lowering the barrier to access, which has led to some really interesting indie films and a lot of extraordinarily cheap and bad ones. Here I'll be attempting to catalogue what I can, as long as there's a werewolf on screen in the film and the design isn't just a pre-fab Halloween mask, a pre-fabricated costume, or just a guy with minimal make-up. What I'll be including: full length films, made for tv films, short films. The werewolves will range from the classic Wolf-Man style to more animalistic interpretations. I will also include films that aren't exclusively werewolf-centric, as long at t...

The Werewolf TV Series Image Repository

 Separate from the movie posts by decade, this is a space I will be using to archive and showcase images of practical effects werewolves in tv shows- either in series overall or in individual episodes. Not including: anything where the werewolves are just normal wolves or dogs (unless there's some transformation effects shown) or anything so lazy that the werewolves are just a guy with fangs and creature contact lenses. There has to be some kind of make-up and animalistic qualities. To view the werewolf movie image archives, go here: 1930s-1940s, 1950s, 1960s, 1970s, 1980s , 1990s , 2000s , 2010s , 2020s The tv show screencaps were provided by my friend and the primary author of Monsters on Screen (do check out the blog for thorough screencaps, behind the scenes photos, and write-ups that explain how effects were achieved and also credit the talented artists and effects teams that make the monster movie magic possible!) This post will be ordered by series by decade, air ...

Werewolf Movie Image Repository 1980s

 It's no secret that I love werewolves and horror movies, so it feels natural to start a project where I catalogue all the werewolf films I've seen with high quality* screencaps of all the werewolves themselves. I'll be treating this journal entry like a continuing work in progress, the same way I'm treating my masterlist of music videos with anthro animals , adding more films over time as I watch them. I like rainy day projects and I like putting eyes on lesser seen films, especially ones that have cool practical effects in them. Please note- I'm not removing the letterboxing on some of the images because that's a ton of extra work and it also will mean images of different sizes. Sorry. *Many of these films have had Blu-Ray remasters, which I've used for the source, but some films never made it past VHS or DVD transfer. This series will be films by decade so that you can view them by time period. If you want to see the caps for a specific film, hi...
