The howling is nice and perfect werewolf movies of the 80’s decade

I needed this added to my collection a cult classic that i will watch repeatedly i recommended it to any horror fan

One of the best werewolf movies out there and in 4k no less.

Im so glad i picked up The Howling 4K Scream Factory

After owning THE HOWLING on VHS, laser disc, several DVD versions, and a couple of Blu-ray versions too, I was adamant that I would NOT be repurchasing it, yet again, on 4K. But then I saw the glowing reviews... and read about the new features added to this edition (on top of all the previous mouth-watering extras goodness... and I broke down and got it. Yup, it's everything a fan of the film could hope for. Highly recommended. Not recommended: ordering online from Best Buy. This was another case of a damaged slipcover and broken case because they ship without protective padding. Then, I wasn't able to get a replacement via the mail, I had to go to the store. The only BB that had it in stock was 45 minutes away. So that more than canceled out the "convenience" of ordering online when I had to wait longer, and then waste my time and gas to replace the item. Not thrilled with their customer service regarding this.

The Howling is one of those movies I saw many years ago but haven't seen again since. I have been looking for this on any streaming service or on digital or even a good DVD copy for years. The streaming rights must be tied up somewhere preventing its release. I finally found this 4K version, and it was totally worth it. The practical effects used were groundbreaking for the time, and this movie just does such a great job of bringing the werewolf genre to life. I bought this on Halloween day this year, and since I rarely have many trick or treaters, I made popcorn and watched this instead of waiting to see if the doorbell would ring. Worth it!

Absolutely worth the upgrade to 4K. I have the previous Blu-ray from Scream Factory and I wasn't sure a 4K upgrade would benefit this film much. Boy, was I wrong. The picture is very pleasing. Film grain is intact but not heavy. The reds and lights of the opening scene pop and create a picture with more depth. Details can be seen in faces, clothing, and the effects. Oh, the effects. Though little of the werewolves is shown, what we get looks amazing and the transformation scene has never been more grotesque. The previous Blu-ray is included and it has loads of very interesting special features that I also thoroughly enjoyed after watching the film. The Howling is a classic. Buy it!

Dee Wallace is the beautiful news person who discovers a difficult truth! And shows the entire world what must be done!!

The Howling is a horror classic that never goes out of style due to the masterful filmmaking by director, Joe Dante, who makes werewolves seem all too real. Dee Wallace is completely convincing in her role as Karen - it's a perfect example of "believing" an actor as a normal person going through extraordinary and terrifying circumstances. From the nightmarish horror sequence in the opening act to the nearly surreal climax, The Howling holds your attention. And the screenplay by the great John Sayles strikes that balance between horror, realism, and dark humor.

The Howling is a fun 80s movie. I didn't find the film at all scary, and it's almost without blood. The effects are still very good after 30 odd years. The cast is good and stars Dee Wallace, Christoper Stone, Patrick Macnee and the timeless Dick Miller, who cites his very small cameo as the best part he's ever played in his film career. Whilst The Howling is not as nearly as good as I remembered as a kid, the film is still very enjoyable. Sure there are a few moments that don't fit too well, but overall it's classic 80s horror. Also it's just refreshing to see a good werewolf movie. In all honesty I don't think I could name 10 good ones. Point of note the woman werewolf was my first ever crush- she still looks hot looking back. You'll have a good time with this movie and it's climax. Try and avoid the dreadful sequels though.

A reporter goes into the woods where a retreat goes crazy! The Howling is one of the better werewolf movies.

Hey all you reporters out there are you concerned about werewolves? I loved this film Dee Wallace was great lots of scares and Gore along with humour. See it again better second time.
