mike bond I actually wish that someone would make a movie about Christopher Lee focusing on his days in the war... I don’t think people really appreciate how awesome that he truly was.
I am 100% convinced that the script for this movie was a vampire movie that they literally went through and changed the word vampire to werewolf all through it.

"A chalice which held the sacred blood of Christ." So... the Holy Grail? Indiana Jones spent a whole movie looking for that thing and this guy just mentiones it casually as if it's not a big deal. Fantastic review as always!
I mean... just because it was hard to obtain in another movie doesn't mean a skilled, veteran monster hunter shouldn't have it in a completely different, unrelated movie.
I just love how they casually bring up they have the Holy Grail like it's nothing, "Oh yea, almost forgot we have the Cup of Christ right here, now moving on to these daggers"...lol
This movie scared the absolute shit outta me as a kid. I still love it. I talked this movie up to my kids(who were scared of their own shadows at the time) I showed them the movie and they both said "Dad, this is stupid".

It's like I always say - when you're a veteran actor who's gotten roped into making what's clearly a bad movie, you have two options. One, phone in your performance, collect the paycheck, and escape with your dignity. Or two, which is my favorite, have a blast hamming it up, leave toothmarks on all the scenery, and be the only thing people actually enjoy about the whole fiasco. Jeremy Irons took the second option for the terrible D&D movie a couple decades ago, and God bless him for it.

@mike bond I personally enjoy this movie, it caught me off guard a lot when Mark was so bitter about it and when he said he wouldn't recommend it, like what mate? I'd rather watch this hundreds of times over than anything Marvels made in the past 10 years.
So go to bed. Do you not understand how CZcams works? The video will be there when you get up. My guess is you were dinking around on CZcams anyway and wanted easy likes posting a very unoriginal comment.
It’s ironic that you mentioned that the howling had good effects because the same guy who did the effects for that did the effects for the movie that you’re wearing on your shirt
I just love your reviews and often have mini marathons watching with my daughter but I have to say this review is my favorite yet. I’ve already watched this several times and laugh just as hard as the first time. You expressions and reactions are priceless. I actually remember watching this on cable back in the day was tripping on this thing even back then. Thanks for nailing this movie proper.
The movie ends with the famous "boob montage." Combining different clips made to look like reaction shots (especially the owl whose eyes widen comically) actually saved the movie for me the first time I saw it. It was the only thing I remembered.
I read (or saw) somewhere else (on CZcams) that Sybill Danning agreed, contractually, to ONE quick nude shot. So they got their money's worth by showing that One Shot, over and over again at the end.
That's why I miss movie rental places. I loved checking out the boxes for movies in the 80s and wondering what the movie was just by looking at the art
Under the pale pale light of the Moon is my new jam. I got that stuck in my head thanks to you, so I'm going to have to say that this is one of the few times that you're in fact wrong. I need me more of that pale pale light, baby. Shine it down on me, mama! This guy over here knows what I'm talking about.
I concur this is one of the best B-movies, I saw it like 4x already and it is fun. That song is actually cool. And it is filmed in Czech Republic - what else you want?!
The first movie actually gave me chills because of the howling in the forest at night the second one.... well.... it looked like it would have been a lot of fun to make lol
Yes, and not only that, but the actor, Reb Brown, played Captain America in two TV movies in the 1970s, and in the second one he fought a villain played by Christopher Lee! They worked together twice!
Reb Brown is a shlock-movie icon,he starred in more shlock movies I can count. Spoony (anybody remembers him?) use to have an entire series with Reb Brown movie reviews.
Ah but the original also had Werewolf Orgy and Furry Sex Scene. This was Skin-a-Max Soft Core Gold back in the day. LOL! Hirsute freak-a-zoids must have loved all the Howling Movies.
The old man turning into a werewolf we see at minute nine is no other than the greate, late Ferdy Mayne who played Count Krolock in Polanskis THE FEARLESS VAMPIRE KILLERS. I talked with Ferdy about HOWLING II - he told me that he made the movie just for one single reason: to be able to spend a few days together with his old pal Christopher Lee in Prague.
The best thing these types of movies do is to make you think, "I could make a movie and in order for it to not be the suckiest thing ever, all it would have to be is better than this. And THIS got made!" Cheers Mark!
Good question. You know, all of the bitching that Christopher Lee did (in regard to Hammer guilting him into doing terrible films)----- All of the virtue signalling Sir Christopher did in regard to his sanctimonious departure from Hammer-----with all of that in mind, let it be said: Hammer never, I repeat *never* put him in *anything* as terrible as Howling 2. He was so eager to lambaste the genre that foisted him into fame, yet he so often chose roles like *THIS* ???? BTW: I utterly adore Christopher Lee, but his inconsistent virtue signalling just annoys me to no end.

I’m fully convinced that they took Christopher Lee’s family hostage in order to make him appear in this movie...

I am 100% convinced that the script for this movie was a vampire movie that they literally went through and changed the word vampire to werewolf all through it.
in the actual occult legends, vampires and werewolves are very closely related, but in movies you're right, they're extremely different.
@@scottdoesntmatter4409 in Scottish lore the Baobhan Sith are female vampires who can also take the shape of a wolf as well as ravens.
Lovely. Why does that have relevance?@@Robert-nu4vc

The more annoyed you get about the movie the more you sound like Jerry Seinfeld. Always makes me laugh
IKR. What's the deal with that?
Why are bad movies bad? Who are these people?
Should watch The Ring Thing! He will transform into Seinfeld then, I'm sure...
What's the DEAL with these shitty werewolves?!
OMGosh I cannot unsee/unhear that now 😂
"A chalice which held the sacred blood of Christ." So... the Holy Grail? Indiana Jones spent a whole movie looking for that thing and this guy just mentiones it casually as if it's not a big deal.
Fantastic review as always!
Yeah but he mentioned it in Christoper Lee's voice so its much more potent.
I mean... just because it was hard to obtain in another movie doesn't mean a skilled, veteran monster hunter shouldn't have it in a completely different, unrelated movie.
It's because he's Christopher Fucking Lee
"Well, I'll ask him...but he's already got one. It's very nice."
The Holy Grail is supposed to be the cup used at the last supper. Not a cup with his blood in it.
"He's my brother. He has come to destroy me. But I will destroy him".
Masterful scriptwriting
sounds like a little girl talking about some mischief she did to her older brother and how he is coming back for retribution
All the while she is petting a stuffed, smiling wolf...
"Mother! You're alive." "Too bad YOU...will die!"
She didn’t turn into a werewolf. She turned into a werePomeranian

Eh?
That theme song is actually pretty awesome. I miss movies with overplayed theme songs, gotta love the 80s.
1985 was pretty late for that sort of thing, but Hollywood still had to have the "new wave" Club with the punk extras they got cheap.
Under the pale pale light, the pale pale light of the moon!!! It's hilarious.
Christopher Lee sails through this movie with an "It's a paycheque" look on his face. Crazy softcore porn horror that was edited with a butterknife.
Anything Sybil Danning was in, was like that, softcore porn, lol. The B-movie Queen of the 1980's.

This is my favorite review from Mark.
Same. My only gripe with this review is how he doesn't realize there are supposed to be multiple werewolves at the abandoned warehouse.
11:36 "The Furriest Fornication ever caught on Film."
This 3 Fs phrase is pure comedic gold! :)
alliteration
13:14 “Two shag rugs are makin out with each other”
🤣🤣
Further proof that when Christopher Lee answered the phone he didn't say "Hello" he said "I'll do it".
Worked out for him lol
Face it, even with a dumpster fire of a movie, Christopher Lee adds class to it.
I seen this one movie he was in, he played some kind of wizard. It was really good, kinda long though.
nope, this one is just plain BAD, to the point of being funny. Even Lee has his limits.
the M.O.A.C.V. mother of all cargo vests literally had me laughing way more than it should've.

Starting a film by having Christopher Lee reading from a book in space with a skeleton is tight!

CZcams: DEMONOTIZIED!!!!
Howling 2 is a pun for "also howling"
It's a license plate title.
If anyone wanted a license plate that says "Also Howling" they should go die in a fire, because that's dumb...
The working title for this movie was actually "Howling As Well"
Also, Howling 3: The Marsupials is worth watching... It's set in Sydney, Australia, and features Were-Kangaroos.
"Were-Kangaroos"???
...Christ, that is worth watching.
Actually they are thylacines aka Tasmanian tigers. Werethylacines or Tasmanian weretigers? Hell, who knows. It's an awful film though.
I've gotta see that movie. Were Kangaroos sound nice.
Keith Ward wait a minute
So you are saying that were kangaroos are a thing?
There really is a Howling 3, and you aren’t just getting my hopes up for a Were-Platypus,
