In this episode, the Retro Movie Geek crew are joined by Ashley Caldwell, from the Kill the Dead podcast (find more from Ash HERE), and they’re geeking out over The Howling (1981) and

  • a werewolf psychiatrist
  • transformations
  • the “Yorkie” werewolf
  • sequels
  • and much, much more!

Synopsis:

A brutal sexual assault on a beautiful television newswoman, leads her to seek help at The Colony, a private therapy centre. Here her condition worsens, she begins to hear strange howling at night, and her husband is savagely attacked by an unidentified animal.

The Howling explores the frightening sinister world of the werewolf, and continues to build in tension and suspense towards a climax of shocking discoveries. The special effects are enough to give any horror addict a real fright.

When the howling starts… the terror begins!
