Ginger Snaps is a favourite of mine, so another vote for it, also the sequel is worth the look too.
Dog Soldiers isn't my favourite from Neil Marshall but worth the look too.
Apart from the obvious I can't think of any other memorable ones...
most have been completely rubbish(Van Helsing, Skinwalkers and Cursed to name a few)...
Most of the time I have to suffice with barely up to par special effects and truely shit stories, I did enjoy Bad Moon based on the book Thor, the original american werewolf was good, but why needed to bring it to paris and with rancid dog like beasts was ridiculous. I'll have to check out the ginger snaps movies, i've seen about five minutes of dog soldiers and it seemed like a SciFi channel original movie that was more about how many guns the soldiers can fire, but I suppose I should watchthe whole thing before I go spouting off.
I probably would have liked American Werewolf in Paris better if it had gone by another name, I was expecting something on par with London, which story wise it wasn't. My main problem with werewolf movies is that they seem to forget about story, characters are unbelieveable, situations aren't original, there is a fantasy writer (or artist, i can't remember which or even the guys name) that says when you create deal in fantastic situations just as monsters and such, you have to be even more realisitc, because otherwise it is just a mad man rambling and it doesn't make any sense.
An American Werewolf in Paris couldn't have gone by another name because its story followed London too much. I enjoyed it, it was funny. I liked how it added another undead victim to the mix. His friend is trying to push him into killing the werewolf that killed him, and the woman is trying to get him killed.
I don't remember much about Bad Moon, but I remember not liking it.
Some favorites of mine:
The Howling
AWIL
Dog Soldiers
Ginger Snaps 1&2 (though seeing the prequel doesn't hurt)
Wolf (Jack Nicholson, unsung werewolf gem IMO)
The Wolf Man (see Frankenstein Meets the Wolf Man and Abbott & Costello Meet Frankenstein while you're at it)
Underworld Trilogy
Teen Wolf (good corny '80s teen comedy, sequel sucks though)
The Monster Squad
Cursed (it's good if you've seen The Wolf Man, Wolf, AWIL, as they are referenced)
The only two worth mentioning in my book are, Dog Soldiers and American Werewolf in London. I did like the Ginger Snap movies but it's very hard for me to consider them Werewolf movies. The problem with Werewolf movies is that you need a good script as well as incredible effects. It generally seems that we only get one or the other.
The Werewolf series is the best, with characters like Eric Cord and Skorzeny, and the bounty hunter. I'll say what I liked and disliked about each werewolf film.
1. The Howling - Werewolves looked good and were truly evil
2. Werewolf in London - great werewolf, but not a fan of the dog like resemblence, great beginning, stay on the path.
3. Dog Soldiers - ok movie, didn't like the werewolve's look, legs to long.
4. Werewolf in Paris - liked everything except the dead ghost people.
5. Ginger Snaps - ok movie with 2 weird girls.
6. Bad Moon - awesome werewolf, horrible transformation
7. Underworld Rise of the Lycans - 2 thumbs up, no complaints.
8. Waiting on the Wolfman remake, looks good so far.
For those of you who asked what the song was the soldiers whistled as they walked through the woods in Dog Soldiers (my absoloute fave werewolf flick)... it was 'Tom Hark' by the Piranahs. 1980, and some of us are still old enough to remember it.
For old school wolf flicks (tongue in cheek but fun) check out 'Steel wolf' and 'Silver Bullet'. Both simple howl entertainment.
