Description
Fascinating and imaginative, The Company of Wolves brings together the timeless Little Red Riding Hood and werewolf fables with a haunting, compelling, eerie and erotic difference. This movie is a magical bag of symbolic folklore about werewolves or rather their sexual connotation. Grandmother tells her granddaughter Sarah strange, disturbing tales about innocent maidens falling in love with handsome, heavily eyebrowed strangers that have a smouldering look in their eyes. She also tells her of sudden disappearances of spouses when the moon is round and the wolves are howling in the woods. Critically acclaimed, the film won several major prizes at specialist fantasy film awards events, including 'Best Special Effects' at Fantasporto. Starring Angela Lansbury

An Interesting Twist on a Classic!
The film starts off in a modern day setting. The youngest daughter is locked up in her room, sleeping, and having a very strange dream. In this dream, her and her family are living in the very old times (Maybe the 1800's, if I had to guess??). Her older sister was killed by wolves. Her grandmother starts telling her stories about wolves, and tells her to be careful of handsome men with thick eyebrows, for they are surely hairy on the inside. She then goes on to tell her that "hairy on the inside" is an expression for a wolf that is capable of blending in as a human. I'm not sure if I'd consider this a werewolf story, for the simple fact that they're referring to wolves and not werewolves. But I will say that it's a really unique twist on Little Red Riding Hood. The steelbook is absolutely gorgeous. It looks great in my collection.
