You mean the ones that are hairy on the outside?
The image of the wolf has long been colored by fear, so while Conall means "strong as a wolf," for instance, the film Wolfshead listed below uses the term in the old legal sense -- meaning "outlaw."

American Werewolf in London
(1981) Certain elements hit the spot: Jenny Agutter as a nurse; Rick Baker, who made the outfits; Creedence music. Some felt the ending was over the top, but the grand tour of horror in-jokes had already been made, so the only thing left to do was wreck Piccadilly.
97 min., Color, Rated R, $14.99

The Beast Must Die aka Black Werewolf
(1974) Agatha Christie's "Ten Little Indians," only the murderer is a werewolf, and the werewolf is one of the houseguests; with Peter Cushing.
93 min., Color, Rated PG, $9.99

The Company of Wolves
(1984) Their positive take on heterosexuality only got the makers in a stew of trouble. The original ad posters were banned from the London Underground. The ever-wolfish David Warner is not a creep here, but an honest man , a fair husband and concerned father. Like Angela Lansbury's "Grandma" character, the film begins many stories and ends none of them -- so you're left to fill in the blanks. Co-stars Micha Bergese as the huntsman.
95 min., Color, Rated R, not available

Hour of the Wolf (Vargtimmen)
(1968) A haunted artist leaves behind only a diary, and in the reading his last hours are recreated: what has possessed him? Bergman.
88 min., B/W, not available

Ladyhawke
(1985) The hard pop soundtrack and glib, anachronistic presence of Matthew Broderick tries to make this costume romance into a John Hughes comedy. Too bad: Michelle Pfeiffer and Rutger Hauer as the cursed lovers, who each take animal form only while the other stays human, are picture-perfect.
124 min., Color, Rated PG-13, $19.99 Laser $39.99

Wolfshead
(1969) Yet another robbin' hood story: Robert of Locksley to be precise. British TV pilot.
56 min., Color, not available
