Wolfen
- 8:45PM
The werewolf movie gets an unusually smart, subversive twist in this cult classic inspired by Native American folklore in which the grisly killing of a gentrifying real estate developer in the burned-out South Bronx would appear to be the work of wolves. The only problem: there aren’t supposed to be any wolves in New York City. Making striking use of innovative POV thermal vision shots, Wolfen offers both visceral thrills and a thought-provoking commentary on ecological conservation and Native rights.
Go to the movies just once a month and a BAM membership pays for itself.
The wildest and weirdest of the wave of 1970s satanic horror shockers.
The old-school creature-feature meets 1980s New York sleaze.
This unsung 90s indie gem is part buddy comedy, part neon-soaked horror fever dream.
