The Howling Marathon Begins!


Yes folks, your votes were tallied and at a whopping two votes the winner of my "What Franchise Should I Watch Next?" contest is The Howling. I watched the first Howling film tonight and will try to get through them as quickly as possible. There are 7 films in the series, the last of which (Howling: Bad Moon Rising) is a VHS only release that I picked up for $2.00 still sealed! Keep your eye on the site for the reviews.

P.S. - The pants in the pic above were totally intentional. They are there to symbolize something, I just haven't made up what that is yet.

    Good luck!

  2. I love each of them in their own terrible ways, except for 2. And 7. I cant believe you are actually going to watch 7, New Moon Rising is one of the few films I would honestly rate a 1/10. It is so god awful. Cant wait for the reviews!

  4. I can't wait for this cycle of reviews. I loved the first howling, and didn't know the franchise cranked them out for so long.

    The pants in the photo, obviously, are a symbol of the casting off of the conventions and garments of civilization - which so typify the entire Howling series of films.
