- September 17, 2011
In season 1 episode 23 of Svengoolie, the audience is taken on a wild ride into the world of werewolves. Titled "Werewolf of London," this episode tells a chilling tale of a botanist who travels to Tibet and is bitten by a strange creature. Upon his return to London, he discovers that he has been transformed into a werewolf.
As the story progresses, the audience is introduced to a number of other intriguing characters. There's the botanist's wife, who is desperate to help him find a cure for his condition. Then there's a rival botanist who is also after the cure -- but for his own selfish purposes. And let's not forget the many victims of the werewolf's savagery, each one more gruesome than the last.
Svengoolie himself provides plenty of entertainment throughout the episode, with his signature blend of humor and horror. The audience can expect plenty of witty one-liners, quirky sound effects, and cheesy movie clips. But make no mistake -- this is still a tale of terror. The werewolf is a fearsome creature, with the power to strike fear into the hearts of even the bravest souls.
Despite its chilling subject matter, "Werewolf of London" is still a classic of the horror movie genre. The film was released in 1935 and was one of the first werewolf movies ever made. It was directed by Stuart Walker and starred Henry Hull as the hapless botanist who is cursed to become a werewolf.
The movie has been praised for its groundbreaking special effects, which were created using a combination of makeup and puppetry. The werewolf transformation scene, in particular, is a tour de force of old-school movie magic. The film's haunting score, composed by Karl Hajos, has also been noted as a highlight of the movie.
For fans of classic horror movies, "Werewolf of London" is not to be missed. It is a spooky, atmospheric film that still manages to chill audiences even nearly a century after its release. And with Svengoolie's signature commentary and wit, this episode of the show is sure to be a memorable one.
