by kyari | created - 08 Dec 2014 | updated - 28 Mar 2022 | Public

A list of movies and tv shows which have werewolves in them. (the ones with no explanation are the ones I haven't seen yet)

When I talk about a type of werewolf, I'm usually going to refer to the 'wolfman' werewolf or the 'underworld' werewolf. If you don't know what I mean with that then just type in those movies and look at the images and you'll know what I'm talking about :).
