In regard to the effects, I was really impressed by the human to werewolf transformations, I thought it was slightly ahead of its time. Furthermore I like how Jordan took out all the stops and really ran away with the theme, when he could have easily made it PG-13. Patterson was a very young lead at the time (12-13) and Jordan could have toned down the entire film in order to make it more available to a younger audience, but fortunately he didn't and it was released as 16+. Anyway I was pleasantly surprised with this movie and I will definitely check out your top 5 werewolf list now. Perhaps I need to see more (good) werewolf movies then!

Everything from The Wolfman to American Werewolf in London. Anyhow you hit the nail on the head when praising the art direction of this film. It looks gorgeous, and has an attractive young female lead in Sarah Patterson, but personally I am so sick of movies taking on the Little Red Riding Hood story. I will give credit to Neil Jordan who takes an interesting spin on the story but my major complaint is that for a film which glories in its werewolf transformations, the effects aren't really up to much.
