Read The Scripts TV Special Review: Was Werewolf by Night a good MCU Special Presentation?

Updated: Aug 22, 2023


Marvel Studios & Disney Plus Werewolf by Night was interesting to watch If you are a fan of the old classic Black and White Werewolf and Dracula Films you would like this. I like how the TV Film starts off with the backstory of Ulysses Bloodstone and the history of the stone, with them mentioning The Avengers in this makes me think where does this take place in the MCU Timeline. The gathering at The Bloodstone Mansion was interesting seeing all of the hunters together was good and I like how Jack Russell was telling one of the hunter how many kills he had I thought that was funny. Verussa Bloodstone was a good character I like the interaction between her and Elsa you can tell that they didn't get along with each other and Verussa doesn't want Elsa to end up with the stone. I like how they explain why everyone was there having all the hunters fight each other in order to become the new leader and the owner of the Bloodstone was good.


Elsa Bloodstone was also a good character in this TV Film she only wanted to get the stone from her step mother and not let any of the other hunters retrieve it. I like the backstory they told about Elsa it wasn't much but it was enough to understand why she was gone for a long time from her family. Jack Russell was really good I like the interaction between him, the other hunters and Elsa. I really like how he was playing it cool around everyone when Verussa told all of them that one of them is a monster and they will be expose if they touch the Bloodstone. The hunt for the Bloodstone in the maze was good I really like the fight scenes and the way the blood look in black and white was so good. The interaction between Elsa and Jack was funny the conversation they had with each other was good and I like that the both of them team up to get the Bloodstone and free Jack friend Ted aka Man-Thing.


I like how they introduce Man-Thing he was good and I like how he was use in this TV Film his power and the CGI of Man-Thing was really good. The interaction between Elsa, Man-Thing and Jack was also good I did like how they where able to get the Bloodstone out of Man-Thing and help him escape. I hope they will bring Man-Thing into other MCU Films or TV Series so we can get more of his backstory. After getting the Bloodstone out of Man-Thing Jack was going to pick it up but the stone knock him back on the groung and that's when Elsa, Verussa and the remaining hunters found out that Jack is the monster in the group. I like how Jack was telling Elsa how he becomes The Werewolf when they was lock up in the cage and when Jack started to sniff her hair so he can remember her when he transform I thought that was funny.


I like how Jack transform into The Werewolf the CGI was really good it did look a little bit off in the fight scene but it was okay. The last fight scene was so good I like how the Werewolf took out the guards and having both Elsa and Werewolf take out the rest of the hunters was great. I did like how Verussa was using the Bloodstone on Werewolf to stop him but when Man-Thing came in and kill Verussa I thought that was good. The Werewolf and Man-Thing leaves the mansion and Elsa finally gets the Bloodstone and we see the scene transition into color. In the next scene we see Jack back to his normal self and he and Man-Thing are having a fun conversation with each other.


Werewolf by Night was really good and it does bring more of the Supernatural elements to the MCU. The CGI was done really good, the story was excellent and the cast was perfect. I hope we will see Jack, Elsa, Man-Thing and The Bloodstone in future MCU projects.


I would recommend to watch this and I will give this a 8/10
