She was never a wolf. She used garden tools to commit the murders while making animal noises. She wanted others to hear her and think that a wolf (or werewolf) had committed those acts of violence.

YOU GUYS NEED TO REMARK SPOILER IN YOUR THREAD.

There is no werewolf, but the Allenbey family had a curse.

There may have been no werewolf, but there were also no bloopers and goofs.

They could've at least shown her turning into a wolf in one of her nightmares.

I always wondered why Jack Pierce's name is in the credits, unless he just did the regular makeup for this movie.

There was a goof. The first time Sara Haden brings the milk to June Lockhart, the glass is half full before she enters the room. When she comes into the room the glass is full. I don't usually catch those things but my wife spotted it.

Wow, weird you'd mention that scene. I'm watching the movie now and reading posts to get some idea of what people think of this movie, and that very scene is playing! Maybe there are two such scenes, but the one I'm seeing I backed up to watch again, just to study the level of the milk in the glass, and what I'm seeing is that it's always half full. Must be another scene?

Anyway, it's very weird to read about a scene while it's playing on TV, especially since your post is years old by this time.

I was disappointed in this movie and other such movies that have titles that suggest a monster is in it but there isn't, just someone who thinks they're a monster or the story involves the legend of a monster (witch, ghost, or similar evil being). Do the filmmakers really think audiences would still be satisfied to find there isn't any?

Due to my weird work schedule lately I haven't seen Svengoolie in weeks. I usually watch it every week, unless the movies are weak. So I was so excited to watch last week to see "She Wolf of London", a movie I've heard of all my life but have never seen.

I fell asleep-it was very disappointing (boring?) I will give it another shot this Saturday morning, when they rerun the previous week's show.

It's a million years after your original post but I'll answer your question. The killer wanted her daughter to marry that rich guy so she tried to drive her niece, June Lockhart, crazy to get her out of the way (as she was engaged to the rich guy.) There were a lot better ways to go about that, I'm sure, but our killer didn't consider them, apparently.

reply

Yeah, the killer's identity was pretty lame and obvious. I figured it out about ten minutes into the movie.

And there was no werewolf in The Wolf of Wall St either. Its not nice when film makers deceive us by inserting the word "wolf" in the title
