They say the Wolf and the Wildcat are natural enemies, but can they work together to overcome their desire to be Other and their drive to be with each other. Billed as a drama/mystery/thriller, I am dubious as to the potential of a happy ending, but I am sure I'm going to watch.

Focus Features will release WOLF theaters on December 3, 2021

Believing he is a wolf trapped in a human body, Jacob (George MacKay) eats, sleeps, and lives like a wolf – much to the shock of his family. When he’s sent to a clinic, Jacob and his animal-bound peers are forced to undergo increasingly extreme forms of ‘curative’ therapies. However once he meets the mysterious Wildcat (Lily-Rose Depp), and as their friendship blossoms into an undeniable infatuation, Jacob is faced with a challenge: will he renounce his true self for love.

Written and Directed by Nathalie Biancheri and starring George MacKay, Lily-Rose Depp, Paddy Considine, Eileen Walsh

MontiLee Stormer is a writer of horror, dark and urban fantasy. She’s also is a troublemaker, concocting acts of mayhem and despair for her own selfish pleasure. An avid movie watcher, she prefers horror but will see just about anything if you're buying. Poltergeist (1982) is her favorite movie and she actively hates The Shining (1980) due to its racism, misogyny, the butchering of the source material. She could host a TEDtalk on this single subject. Writing about herself in the third person is just a bonus.
