Wolf, The

Wilczyca · dir. Marek Piestrak
Poland 1983, 88’

The Wolf it’s arguably the most famous Polish horror film. The action takes place in Poland in the 19th century. Maryna dislikes his husband, a Polish patriot named Kacper. Before her death, she curses him. Her evil is transformed not only into a young countess Julia, but also into the wolf... The film is loaded with traditional genre elements like tombs or silver bullets. The climax is surprisingly gory and the mood quite sensual.
