Seen this at the movies in 1956! This is my favorite werewolf by far. I try to watch it a couple of times a year. Takes place in the mountains in Big Bear, Calif. Very fast pace, no guts & gore, Werewolf makeup man did a good job. Couple of scary moments, the cave scene and the jail scene! Watch it if you get a chance - You just may like it!! David N.
