Único filme cujo tema é a licantropia produzido pela Hammer Film Productions, The Curse of the Werewolf foi dirigido por Terence Fisher em 1961. Repleto de símbolos religiosos e pagãos, e com a tensão sexual a emergir de forma naturalmente animalesca. O então muito jovem Oliver Reed é o lobisomem do título, e representa-o com mais de sentimento e menos de ímpeto assassino do que é costume nestas andanças. Livremente baseado no romance The Werewolf of Paris, o filme desloca a ação para a Espanha do século XVIII.
