I just watched The Wolves of Wall street. The absolute worst werewolf movie I have ever seen. I am pretty easy to please when it comes to horror movies. This stinker had zero transformation scenes, zero werewolf scenes. Have any of you seen this movie? Anything out there worse?

I feel like I'm in a Count Floyd sketch....
I tried looking up this title on imdb but it took me to a movie called Wolves of the Street (with the other as it's working title) that was made in 1920.
As far as bad werewolf movies - depends on what you're looking for. For example, American Werewolf in France and Van Helsing had plenty of SFX...but I wouldn't give you two cents for either of these.

I seen the movie friday or saturday night it was on Starz on demand. I actually picked the danged thing! I agree with American werewolf in france, really bad. Have you ever seen any of the Howling movies?

Werewolf of Washington is a tall glass of dank water to have to swallow.
I've always loved Werewolf in a Girl's Dormatory (for some reason).
Werewolves on Wheels is pretty sucky.
Dan Curtis' Scream of the Wolf was okay. Peter Graves and Clint Walker star in it, so at least the acting was passable.
If you've never seen She Wolf of London, check that out. Interesting 40s mystery. It was released at the time Universal was releasing their "classic monsters" on dvd.

I keep meaning to watch it but I keep watching Werewolf of London instead. Speaking of Universal, I was never a fan of the Abbott & Costello movies....but at the same time, I love Lon Chaney, Jr. I have seen the original The Howling but not the sequels. Liked that a lot. I've also seen Wolfen (mediocre) and Wolf (were they kidding?).

Not that I'm a big expert on werewolf movies or anything, so I don't think it's fair for me to judge what the "worst" is.
Having said that, the werewolf movie I've regretted seeing the most is Wes Craven's "Cursed."
Yeah, yeah, he wasn't allowed to make the movie he wanted, etc. Fact is, I'm glad that the theatrical release that I saw was for free (a new theater was opening in the area.)

I don't recall the title but awhile back I saw a really old movie where a guy is turned into a werewolf and kills people by strangling them. Aside from that I think the Nicholson film Wolf totally blew. I'm into makeup and effects and for a werewolf to "transform" by growing sideburns was totally lame. The Howling sequels were all horrible but still worth watching just because they are god awful. If you and your buddies ever get together to do your own mst3k treatment I'd highly recommend The Howling II and III.

Th original Howling is quite good. The first sequel "Howling 2: Your Sister is a Werewolf" was awful, in spite of the presence of Christopher Lee in it. the hero is the Space Mutiny guy, Blast Hardcheese, and he screams when he shoot werewolves, too. I haven't see the other sequels. And I agree that American Werewolf in France is terrible too. Of course, Teen Wolf 2 is pretty bad, but that's supposed to be more of a comedy than a werewolf movie.

BTW, there's also a movie out there called My Mom is a Werewolf...
I only got through about 10 minutes of it, if that. Stick with Teen Wolf.

I've seen My Mom Is a Werewolf as well and agree that it sucked. Hard to say what's the worst since there have been so many bad ones.

I highly recommend Howling7 New moon rising if you want to see a totally awful yet funny to rip apart werewolf movie. It is a movie that if it had no flashbacks would not have any werewolves(well almost none) Its a charming western setting with real townsfolk as the characters. It has singing, line dancing, dumb townies, and an aussie hero named ted. Everything you need for a werewolf movie. Oh by the way I think the budget for this stinker was about $50.00

This stinker had zero transformation scenes, zero werewolf scenes. Have any of you seen this movie? Anything out there worse? I truly believe "Werewolf", the movie shown in episode #904, HAD to have been worse than the film you're talking about. I haven't seen "The Wolves Of Wall Street", but I just think it's pretty hard to top the incompetence of that film. It failed on EVERY conceiveable level.

Off the tip of my tongue, I think the only true Werewolf films I've ever seen were:
Werewolf of London The Wolf Man Frankenstein Meets the Wolf Man House of Frankenstein House of Dracula Teen Wolf Werewolf (the classic MST version) Ginger Snaps Ginger Snaps II: Unleashed Ginger Snaps Back: The Beginning Van Helsing Cursed
It's not a big selection, but out of all these, Werewolf was easily the worst. Although something must be said for the crappiness of Teen Wolf, Cursed, and the last two Ginger Snaps films.

"The Boy Who Cried Werewolf" is one of my fave bad movies of all time.
