Anyone want Hot Toys to do Horror?

I really wanna see some Wolfman figures.

I mean from the new movie, I really liked the design of the new werewolf... It kept a lot of the features from the original, but was updated to look more like a man who turned into a wolf, rather a than a man who had overactive hair follicles on his face...

I've yet to see that movie, is it worth watching?

It's pretty good.
I enjoyed as a good pop-corn movie. Not scary at all though.

I thought it was ____ty. No character, bearly a story, weird plot twists, and always stopped short of awesomeness.

Great gore though.

It's worth watching for the effects. The werewolf scenes are well done, surprisingly gory and that's really the years worth of behind the scenes re-shoots, firings and hirings were a dead giveaway that the movie wasn't going to be this smooth storytelling experience.

The Wolfman rocked.

Finally got around to seeing this. I wouldn't call it ____ty per say. There was enough of a classical element that it was reminiscent of the original. It definitely had more potential and I think Del Toro was surrounded by too many "yes men" to take it to that next level (it's always a bad sign when everyone on the production is saying, "[insert lead actor]'s a genius!). The gore was used appropriately at least, which was nice. The werewolf design was good but in many scenes looked too CGI or "wireworky", to the point where I would've almost preferred they just do practical stunts. I found all 3 endings to be in that "missed potential" category. Overall, I'd say it was mediocre. Seen better, but seen much, much worse.
