New Film 'Wolf Man' Compared to 'The Invisible Man': A Classic Plot Presented in an Unusual Way

Still from the movie 'Wolf man' (2024)

A new horror film challenges the family idyll.

Blumhouse, a studio known for it's modern takes on classic horror, has unveiled it's new work, the film Wolf Man. Previously, it released the highly successful film The Invisible Man. And it is expected that Wolf man will be no less in demand by viewers.

What is the film about

The plot centers on Blake, whose childhood was spent in a remote rural area, where residents were terrorized by a mysterious monster. Years later, an accomplished adult living in San Francisco with his wife Charlotte and daughter Ginger receives the sad news of his father's death.

In an attempt to change the scenery and deal with dark memories, the family goes on a summer vacation to an old house surrounded by ominous forests. Almost immediately upon arrival, their car is attacked by a huge monster, but this is only the beginning of the nightmare. The main danger comes from Blake himself, who was bitten, and now his essence is changing, turning the man into something terrible. Charlotte and Ginger must survive with a frighteningly changed husband and father.

Good old classics

Director Leigh Whannell, who previously worked with Blumhouse on The Invisible Man, once again turns to classic horror films. However, this time Wolf Man is not just a horror film, but an instructive story touching on the themes of wounded male ego, masculinity crisis and parental fears.

Immersed in the dark atmosphere, it is sometimes difficult to discern what is happening on the screen, which somewhat deprives the film of a sense of real danger. And, despite the efforts of Christopher Abbott, who played Blake, his “human” interaction with Julia Garner’s character in the first half of the film looks more lively and convincing.
