A delightful ode to the classic monster movies with MCU-level stuntwork, production design & effects. LOVED the dynamic between Gael García Bernal & Laura Donnelly’s characters and oh my, does Harriet Sansom Harris make the most of an especially delicious role. A score AND directing win for Giacchino. Set design, creature effects, fight choreography, and B&W gore are all stellar and he & cinematographer Zoë White know JUST how to photograph them.“

Another comment was from Perri Nemiroff, who posted the following in his review, “Werewolf By Night is a classic Hollywood monster movie that you won’t want to see end. SCARY and AWESOME, it’s one of the best things to EVER come out of the UCM. With Gael Garcia it’s thrilling to see the inner beast repressed. More of Jack Russell! What can’t Michael Giacchino do at this point.”
