THE WOLF MAN is a movie produced and directed by George Waggner in 1941.
After a decade in the U.S.A., Larry Talbot has returned home to his Welsch castle. One night, in the forest surrounding the family castle, he kills a wolf that had just cut the throat of a young girl. But, when the police arrives, only the corpse of a gypsy is to be found near a wounded Larry.
As his wound disappears during the night, Larry will pay more attention to the local stories about a man turning into a wolf during the nights of full moon. He'll also discover soon enough that he's become the new werewolf. On the next nights, Larry will be transformed into a half man, half-wolf monster that has to find a new prey every night.
