The deposed editor-in-chief of an old, distinguished publishing firm, recently taken over by a multi-millionaire, corporate raider, is bitten by a wolf on a lonely stretch of road in Vermont the night of a full moon. As he slowly watches himself metamorphose into something lupine, he discovers that he has been betrayed by his most promising protege, his wife of 16 years has been unfaithful, and that he has fallen in love with the raider's beautiful, headstrong daughter. What follows is a series of grisly events that reaches a bloody and horrifying climax. [More]

'Jack Nicholson as a lycanthrope' is an interesting pitch, and it makes for a decent enough film.

Nicholson has rarely been better than here, walking the line between the refinement of society and the pleasures of things more elemental.

...had the script been any good, Nicholson would have been the perfect choice to play a "civilized" man wrestling with the beast within.

A different approach to the werewolf saga, aided by Nicholson's bizarre performance

If he'd followed through, Mike Nichols might have made a brilliant picture -- seems he just couldn't bear to look a gift wolf in the mouth.

It is movies like Wolf that reinvigorate the movie fan lurking inside us all, showing us that commercial and artistic success can truly coexist in modern cinema.
