Customer Ratings & Reviews

The Howling, a 1980 werewolf movie is still one of my all-time favorites. Now, a brand new 4K restoration and great sound make this one to have. Dee Wallace plays a reporter on the hunt for a good story involving a recent string of homicides. They believe the man responsible stalks the seedy part of L.A./Hollywood. Once she is drawn into the fact that the man doing the killings is not even human, things get weirder. Her mental state is affected by a recent encounter known only as Eddie. A well-known doctor now talks her and her husband into coming to a secluded getaway in the forest called The Colony. It's a very special place, one in which all the inhabitants are werewolves themselves. The doctor, played by veteran actor Patrick Macnee (A View to a Kill), is supposedly the anchor of the group, but an intelligent woman leader of the bunch says otherwise. After a shootout ensues with Dee Wallace's character Karen and her close male friend, they seem to make it out alive. Fate says not so fast as the two survivors tell their story on live TV News in an ending for the horror record books. The movie looks spectacular on the 4K equipment and sound is superb for a 1980 horror movie. I heard sounds I had not heard before when I played this back through the sound bar. All special features have been brought over from previous editions and we get a few new interviews as well. The main one is with Dee Wallace talking about making the movie and having it still revered all these 40 some years later. She still looks great!

Werewolf Classic! Bonus Features are really informative The Definitive Release

Classic Joe Dante at his best a must own for anyone who is a Horror fan!!

Claadic werewolf transformation scene. Would recommend it

Classic werewolf movie from the 80s in 4K HDR. The transformations never looked so good!

Got this on a sale and it was one of the few Joe Dante films I hadn't seen. Scream Factory knocks it out of the park with the restoration and it looks just as good as it did in theaters

I don't care what anyone says, THIS is the best werewolf movie ever made. (Apologies to John Landis . . . American Werewolf in London is ALMOST as good!)

Still a great werewolf movies up there with American werewolf in London

Great movie. Very good storyline and nice one to add to your movie collection.

I waited for this movie long time and now I got it in 4k. Picture and Sound are pretty good. Highly recommend it.

Movie creeped me out as a kid. I noticed how campy the film is when saw it as an adult. Great werewolf film

Excellent transfer claasic 80's horror movie scary

Scream Factory brings a great collector’s edition to 4K for a reasonable price.

really cool fx and 1 of the best werewolf transformations ever

The howling is nice and perfect werewolf movies of the 80’s decade

Up there as 1 of the best werewolf movies of all time

After owning THE HOWLING on VHS, laser disc, several DVD versions, and a couple of Blu-ray versions too, I was adamant that I would NOT be repurchasing it, yet again, on 4K. But then I saw the glowing reviews... and read about the new features added to this edition (on top of all the previous mouth-watering extras goodness... and I broke down and got it. Yup, it's everything a fan of the film could hope for. Highly recommended. Not recommended: ordering online from Best Buy. This was another case of a damaged slipcover and broken case because they ship without protective padding. Then, I wasn't able to get a replacement via the mail, I had to go to the store. The only BB that had it in stock was 45 minutes away. So that more than canceled out the "convenience" of ordering online when I had to wait longer, and then waste my time and gas to replace the item. Not thrilled with their customer service regarding this.

One of the best werewolf movies out there and in 4k no less.

Im so glad i picked up The Howling 4K Scream Factory

I needed this added to my collection a cult classic that i will watch repeatedly i recommended it to any horror fan
