Werewolf By Night
“Werewolf By Night” is a breath of fresh air when it comes to the endless content machine of Marvel’s Phase Four.
Jack Russell is a monster hunter who has been invited by Verussa Bloodstone, along with four other monster hunters, to a competitive hunt. They’re all competing to see who the next wielder of the Bloodstone will be. In order to find out, they must hunt a creature with the Bloodstone attached to its back. It turns out, Jack has a secret.
Like many other people, I enjoyed this a lot. There’s something nostalgic about watching a Halloween-themed television special. Pair that with the classic 1930′s and 1940′s horror aesthetics and you have something truly special. With all the superhero fatigue that’s been going on, it’s fun to watch the interesting lore of the MCU mixed with Universal monster-inspired characters. It expands the universe in a new and intriguing way, just as “Guardians Of The Galaxy” introduced space, “Dr. Strange” introduced magic, and “Loki” introduced the multiverse. It makes this world feel more than just superheroes and instead a place where this arcane power has always existed. It makes superheroes just feel like the latest iteration of those who wielded power. On top of that, it’s refreshing to get a property that didn’t concern itself with tying the characters with the larger MCU. Not everything in this world has to be connected. I think that was one of the biggest problems with the Star Wars franchise since it all had to be tied back to the Skywalkers. “Werewolf By Night” truly feels inspired because it’s made by someone who clearly loves the art of cinema. The black and white filter mixed with the film grain and cigarette burns really feels like a love letter to the movies that started it all. It’s just a shame that Marvel didn’t use this opportunity to shoot on film instead of digital. It would’ve made this television movie feel a lot more special. I loved seeing the practical effects because practical effects in older movies are what ignited my fascination with filmmaking in the first place. I hope this means that we’ll get more television specials that adhere to a more classic aesthetic. It worked for “X” and “Pearl”, so I would definitely love to see Marvel take another shot at it. Honestly, I don’t think I would mind the MCU making a hard shift from superheroes to horror if this is the level of quality we’d be getting. It would be a bold, but welcome way to shift the MCU to make sure it stays relevant. I also hope that this film shows Marvel that people want a more violent approach to the right characters. The only thing I would complain about is that I wished this movie was a bit longer to flesh out its characters a bit more. They were all interesting, but I feel like I didn’t get much from them. Other than that, this is one of those instances where loving to see something different really paid off.

I rewatched the movie "Willow" and started rewatching the series amidst rumors that the latter might soon be taken off Disney+.  I’ll post my thoughts about the movie and each episode in separate posts over the next few days.
Watching the show a second time, I really don't get why some viewers hated it. It may not be to everyone's taste, and the script may not be among the greatest, but the cast is decent, and the story, music, costumes, landscapes, themes, and symbolism are beautiful.
