“The Movies That Made Me” Spotlights the Horror Comedy “Werewolves Within”


The most talked about movie of the summer to date is Werewolves Within, a horror-comedy based on the Ubisoft VR game of the same name starring Sam Richardson, Milana Vayntrub, and What We Do in the ShadowsHarvey Guillén. As funny as it is thrill-packed, the film seems destined for a long life in the hearts of horrorhounds everywhere. Realizing this, The Movies That Made Me hosts Josh Olson and Joe Dante (who knows a thing about werewolves or two given his directing work on 1981’s The Howling) have dedicated a special double-length episode to Werewolves Within.
