More of the former this time…
Post-production is taking place on Teen Wolf, an update of the 1985 Michael J. Fox film that will air on MTV. Russell Mulcahy (Highlander, Resident Evil: Extinction) is at the helm. We caught up with the man last month who talked to us about the remake here, now he’s spoken to Den of Geek to discuss tone.
He says, “the new MTV Teen Wolf takes out a totally different slant, taking more of the slant of The Lost Boys, so to speak. It still has humor, but it’s basically got horror and humor. The humor is in the characters and the real situations and the teenagers, it’s very real and not played for any obvious laughs – they come from the situation. So there is definitely humor and horror, we really, really wanted to go for that and also the reality. Also it’s obviously pumped up with not only a good scary score, but it’s also pumped up with great music.”
Of course it is, MTV is behind it after all. Teen Wolf howls later this year. For more, check out our interview with star Crystal Reed here.
