Horror Movie of the day: Werewolf of London (1935)

In the mountains of Tibet, botanist Wilfred Glendon is on an expedition. His objective? Find a rare flower called Mariphasa lumina lupina, who apparently only blooms under the moonlight. Just as he finds one, he's attacked by a strange, humanoid creature and ends up being bitten in the arm.

Back at London, Glendon has become quite the hermit to the dismay of his stranged wife Lisa. Just in time for her childhood sweetheart Paul to try and win her back, too. But the botanist has little time to worry about this rather unsubtle suitor, having met another botanist from abroad in Dr. Yogami. He seems a little too interested and knowledgeable in the Mariphasa, as it's the only cure for the werewolf condition. One contracted when bitten by another. And each night of moonlight, the creature must kill should it want to turn back to a human. With Scottland Yard on his tail after the murder of a woman he found on the streets, Glendon is in a race against time... as he yearns for the blood of Lisa.

Directed by Stuart Walker, this movie set the template of cinematic werewolf stories to come. Not unlike Nosferatu started the tradition of sunlight killing vampires, this movie started the idea of the full moon being the trigger to Lycanthropy once infected, and the themes of loss of self-control and human vs animal that have been synonym with the monster (No silver bullet yet, though). Henry Hull's performance as the tormented Glendon does paint the image of a conflicted if not always well meaning man; the creature makeup certianly heping to create this inbetween of man and animal, in spite of being rather subdued compared to other werewolf designs.

Being a movie this old it's representation of Asian cultures is... less than stellar with Yogami being portrayed by Warner Oland (a Swedish man). And you might see the tragedy coming a mile away, but it doesn't make the journey any less entertaining.
