the husband and i went to see the wolfman today...classic victorian-era horror styling really made the movie for me. i'll admit that i ws nervous about the opening titles: really poor choice of typeface made the titles look cartoony, topped by a blood-dripped headstone image of the title: reeediculous. but the rest of the imagery was fine.
the manner in which the story was presented seemed very old-timey, but somehow, that was totally okay.
anthony hopkins was fun, and hugo weaving was a VERY welcome sight. del toro? way out of place here. but he didn't wreck the movie at all.
but if anyone tosses me into a fireplace, know that i'm not going to be the only one who ends up getting barbequed.
