REVIEW: WerewolfByNight rifles through Marvel's old 1970s horror comics for some fresh MCU blood — and winds up with a scary, thrilling, fun one-off that's part old-school horror homage and part superhero I.P. deep cut.
It’s not like the corporate stakes and the budgets still aren’t high, but it’s allowed the ransacking of 60 years of legacy I.P. to venture into dustier, darker, WTF-weirder corners of Marvel’s cross-current storytelling. Making a genre-specific special for seasonal “Shocktober” programming isn’t unique.
Of course, should you need every MCU entry to stick to some predetermined superhero script, you may find yourself getting impatient at best while watching Bernal get hirsute and homicidal. At worst, you’ll be searching your cabinets for spare silver bullets until the inevitable last-act brawl-a-thon. Unlike the comics,take advantage of the “new freedoms” that hit the Comics Code way back in the day.
You can find horror everywhere. You can also find superhero stories everywhere now as well, however, at the expense of a lot of other types of movies/TV shows/entertainment/content, which is what makes this offshoot all the more welcome. If it’s indeed a Marvel world and we’re all just living in it for better or worse, we could use more creative distractions from mondo world-building like this. Just drop them more than once every full moon, please.
