Oh, so that was what Morbius was trying to do.

Oh, so that was what Morbius was trying to do. Imagine if he made a cameo appearance!

Not going to lie, I'm actually looking forward to this. It's been awhile since i've been this hyped for a Disney+ exclusive.

Bit of a surprise but a welcome one. I wonder if this will fit the criteria for the October challenge on the Horror board.

Shame Marvel doesn’t put this (or more things like it) in theaters. No, it wouldn’t make a billion, but so what? It’s really too bad that it’s stuck in streeeeeming hell.

This might be the first MCU project that I have no plan to watch. Not familiar with the source material, and the trailer didn't interest me at all.

"When asked if the show was a "hard sell at all," Giacchino openly shared that Feige couldn't believe that he actually pitched Werewolf by Night to him: “You know what, it was funny because Kevin [Feige] was talking to me and said, ‘So what would you want to do?’ And I was like, ‘I want to do Werewolf by Night.’ And he looked at me like, ‘Really? Like really? Werewolf–’ I’m like, ‘Yeah, that’s what I want.’ He was like, ‘Wow. Okay, alright. Let’s talk about that.’ And the conversation just kept going, and going, and going, and then, and here we are now." The veteran composer then said that it was a "real gift" to serve as the director of Marvel Studios' Halloween special, claiming that they "had fun" throughout the process: "But it was a real gift to be given something that was different and standalone from everything else that they’ve been doing so, it was also a gift. But it was also terrifying because I was like… I didn’t want to mess it up. I felt like you know there was a lot, even though it was a smaller project, it felt like there was a lot at stake, you know, in terms of what we were doing. So I don’t know, but we had fun.” thedirect.com/article/marvel-kevin-feige-werewolf-by-night-pitch

Social media Embargo lifted. Here's some reactions to the special:
Marvel's new MCU monsters and leads are awesome, as is Michael Giacchino's direction & music as well! The supporting characters are not on the same level, but Werewolf By Night is still a thrilling Halloween special they should keep doing more of. I'm glad they pushed Werewolf By Night to be more horror than originally thought. It's a neat tease of what could be an expansive MCU monster universe. - Rob Keyes (Collider)
The Marvel Disney+ shows have been a bit all over the map quality wise, but Werewolf By Night is easily the best thing they’ve done. Yes even better than Moon Knight (which you all know I loved). Werewolf By Night feels like an instant classic and immediately rewatchable. The fact that the entire production was as practical as possible - from the set, to the costumes, etc made this feel realer than any thing we’ve seen in the MCU. The fact that casual Marvel fans are going to love Man Thing is a bit mindblowing but I can’t wait. Last thing I’ll say about Werewolf By Night is how surprisingly violent it is with its action scenes. Something I think a lot of fans have been waiting for. - James Viscardi (ComicBook.com)
I love Werewolf By Night! The throwback black and white classic horror approach works perfectly for the story and feels so unique within the MCU. It’s an exciting example of how they can push boundaries. The cast are great and I hope to see more of them and of this type of thing. Eric Goldman (Fandom)
Marvel took a big swing with Werewolf by Night and they knocked it out of the park. I love how the campy horror vibes blended with the Marvel style! Gael García Bernal is the perfect actor to play Jack Russell and Man Thing will become a fan favourite! Michael Giacchino didn't disappoint. - BSL
Marvel’s Werewolf by Night is a spooky & moody monster tale w/ beautiful photography & big throwback vibes. Director Michael Giacchino does a great job blending the look & feel of classic horror from the ‘30s & ‘40s w/ amusing MCU touches. Ted is MVP, imo. Fun & different - Erik Davis (Fandango)
Monster hunters with rad weapons, awesome creatures, crazy black and white gore, Werewolf by Night is a love letter to old school monster movies in a tight hour long package. - Germain Lussier (Gizmodo)
Werewolf by Night is the Marvel Studios Monster Mash you've been waiting for! Great Universal Classic Monsters vibes, and surprisingly A LOT of violence for a Marvel title. Michael Giacchino kills it, but Gael García Bernal is a star. FANTASTIC use of Man-Thing. - Rafael Motamayor (Slash Film)
Werewolf by Night is the MCU Halloween treat I was hoping for! 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. - Perri Nemiroff (Collider)
Michael Giacchino’s Werewolf by Night t captures the aesthetic of old 40s Hollywood horror but with a Marvel flair. It’s has the right amount of suspense to draw you in and get you terrified. Gael García Bernal is fantastic and Lauren Donnelly is bad ass! - Anthony (The Movie Podcast )

I may watch this, despite my qualms about the trailer, if only because Bebe Glazer is in it.
