216 - The Wolfman (2010) w/ Jim Rohner

Disenfranchised

“Even a man who is pure in heart and says his prayers by night may become a wolf when the wolfbane blooms, and the autumn moon is bright.”

With Leigh Whannell’s update of the classic Universal Monster movie set to drop this weekend, we’re chatting about the last time Universal tried to reboot the classic monster! And we’re joined by returning guest Jim Rohner, formerly of the Cast of Cthulhu, who joins us to chat about Joe Johnston’s late arrival on this film and subsequent difficulties, favorite music video directors, the Dark Universe, and finding the heart of the Universal Monsters franchise.
