For the recent SyFy channel original movie "Battledogs" starring Ariana Richards (Jurassic Park), Wes Studi (Last of the Mohicans), Dennis Haysbert (24), Craig Sheffer (A River Runs Through It), and directed by Alexander Yellen, I spent some time designing and redesigning the werewolves.
Originally starting out as very much humans with wolf like features, they gradually morphed into full on monster wolves at the behest of SyFy channel.
