Will This Be the Most Disturbing Werewolf ever put to film?

Robert Eggers said WERWULF is "by far the darkest thing" he's ever written — and this is the man who made The Witch and Nosferatu. So we had to ask: is this about to be the most disturbing werewolf movie ever put to film? In this video we break down the WERWULF trailer, the 13th-century history behind it (Gervase of Tilbury's "Of Men Who Were Wolves"), and the insane lengths Eggers went to — 35mm film, 1.37:1 Academy framing, an orthochromatic process that makes the cast look sickly and pale, Middle English dialogue, and Aaron Taylor-Johnson studying a live wolf for a transformation Eggers calls "incredibly extreme." Add Lily-Rose Depp and Willem Dafoe and you've got Eggers' most terrifying picture yet, hitting theaters December 25, 2026.
