She-Wolf of London is a horror movie from 1946 directed by Jean Yarborough, starring Don Porter, June Lockhart, and Sara Haden. The movie has gained a cult following over the years, and is known for its moody atmosphere, strong performances, and eerie storyline. The movie tells the story of Phyllis Allenby (June Lockhart), a wealthy young woman living in London who becomes convinced that she is suffering from a curse that makes her turn into a werewolf every night. Though her family and friends try to reassure her that there is no such thing as werewolves and that it is all in her head, Phyllis is convinced that she is a danger to those around her and begins to isolate herself.

Enter Tom, a handsome American author who is researching legends of werewolves for his new book. Tom becomes intrigued by Phyllis and begins to investigate her claims, convinced that there may be something more to her story than just a overactive imagination. As he gets closer to the truth, Tom begins to uncover a web of secrets and long-buried family scandals that threaten to tear apart the Allenby family and reveal the true identity of the She-Wolf of London.

The movie features strong performances from its lead actors, particularly June Lockhart as the tormented Phyllis and Don Porter as the dashing Tom. The two have a great chemistry together, and their scenes are some of the movie's best. Supporting roles are also well played, with Sara Haden standing out as Phyllis' overbearing aunt who has her own hidden agendas.

The film is also notable for its atmospheric cinematography, which uses shadow and light to create a sense of dread and unease, particularly during the scenes where Phyllis transforms into the werewolf. The scenes are well executed for their time, using practical effects and tricks to show the transformation rather than relying on computer-generated graphics as modern movies do.

Overall, She-Wolf of London is a classic horror movie that still holds up today for its moody atmosphere, strong performances, and intriguing storyline. It is a must-see for fans of classic horror movies, and a great introduction to the genre for those who are new to it. The movie has stood the test of time, and remains one of the most beloved and enduring horror movies of the 1940s.

She-Wolf of London is a 1946 horror movie with a runtime of 1 hour and 1 minute. It has received moderate reviews from critics and viewers, who have given it an IMDb score of 5.2.
