Loup Gurus and Insomnia

So...I've been tweeting about werewolves all day, it's now 3:21 a.m. and I'm thoroughly spooked. And all hopped up on Coke Zero so I can't sleep. It all started with a link I found to the new Wolfman movie trailer starring BENICIO DEL TORO (great casting!), EMILY BLUNT and ANTHONY HOPKINS. It looks wonderfully gothic and atmospheric. And scary!

Lawrence Talbot is a haunted nobleman lured back to his family estate after his brother vanishes. Reunited with his estranged father, Talbot sets out to find his brother...and discovers a horrifying destiny for himself.



Then I started thinking about Silver Bullet, which is one of my favorite werewolf movies of all time. Gary Busey! Yay!

Whenever the moon is full, it comes back.



Which led me to An American Werewolf in Paris and the (R rated) cemetery scene with that Great Bush song Mouth. Soooo appropriate.

And then I found out that Leonardo DiCaprio is developing the Little Red Riding Hood fairytale into a feature length movie and giving it a gothic twist. Evidently, they're going back to the darker roots of the story. I'm thinking werewolf.

So here I sit at 3:42 in the morning with loup gurus on on my mind. How long til daylight?
