The B-Movie Cast is back and this time Nic and Mary are joined by special guest Eric Brooks. The gang check out one of the 1981 cinematic Werewolf movie trinity: “Wolfen”. We’ve got an apocalyptic looking New York neighborhood mixed with a liberal dose of Native American folklore and some sinister urban wolves all stirred up into the most underrated of 1981’s three entries in the Werewolf genre!
Here’s a bonus- this website does an amazing job of ‘then-and-now’ for the New York City of “Wolfen” watch the film (we spoil it big time anyway) and then check out the site here- https://nycinfilm.com/2019/10/31/wolfen-1981/
Also of note – the B-Movie Cast will be going on hiatus (in case you hadn’t noticed). But like the Drive-In, The B-Movie Cast will never die so stay tuned!
Final note- From Nic to fan favorite Mark Mawston: We had some feedback that wasn’t favorable to Mark or myself. That said, it was more trolling than feedback and I’m sorry Mark for not sticking up for you when we aired that feedback. That one’s on me and I hope you’ll forgive me.
Keep your noses in the wind and your tails to yourselves and keep watching the skies!
