Joe Dante’s The Howling (1981) is a landmark in modern werewolf horror. After a traumatic encounter with a serial killer, a TV reporter retreats to a remote therapy colony—only to uncover a terrifying community of shapeshifters. Blending psychological tension, transformation effects, and satirical edge, it redefined the werewolf film for the 1980s.
