I dunno, he still sends a chill up my spine, especially when he roars after reading out the letter that was left in Mr Tumnus's house. Still scares me a bit.
Bear in mind that I'm now 21 and am probably only scared because I used to be terrified when I was about 5 when I watched this. So to be scared now is probably just me remembering my feelings back then!

Might have a whiskey and a bath...

I'm 23 and that part still scares me too. If you have the dvd version watch the next chapter as they re read the letter. Maugrams face comes sliding down and bounces around the screen. Gave me such a fright. Haha.

I just burst out laughing, as did everyone else in the room.

When darkness overcomes the heart, Lil' Slugger appears...

Yes, it wasn't in this film it was in "Prince Caspian". The woman was a haggard witch and the other was a werewolf.

The costume and the actor were the same though.

his name was maugrim, he scared the living daylights out of me when i was younger aswell. espcially when he just roared for no apparant reason

the other wolf in the other narnia films was played by the same guy but he was called humbler or something. I still get a chill up my spine when he reads the letter then roars! and yes when his face bouces on the screen in the next when! quite funny when you think about it!

I was terrified of Maugrim! His letter-roaring of course, but no one mentions that little snarling thing he does sometimes, like in the Beavers dam *shiver*

My not so little brother (now 21 and 6'1) and I just reminisced about "the wolf man" today and had a good laugh over it. Growing up in a family with 5 kids, BBC's Narnia movies were favorites and we watched them all the time. The wolf man gave my little brother horrible nightmares when he was 3 or 4, to the point that finally my mum had to get rid of The Wardrobe because we wouldn't stop watching it and my brother would wake up screaming. Wolf man haunted him for several years.

We had a good laugh over it today.
