So you know how we feel about Marvel. The MCU is on thin ice with Riley, Ben, and PJ. However, we were intrigued by the latest entry, a Halloween special based on comic book character Werewolf by Night. So we gave it a watch!
In this episode we examine why (we felt) Werewolf by Night didn't stick its landing or penetrate our hearts. Though capably made, in the end, the film felt forgettable. Why is that? Why sometimes do stories not "hit"—why don't they "have teeth"? We explore that question and more about what makes films great, and disappointing.
