Releases Reviewed:

Moon of the Wolf has just about as many various releases as other public domain obscurities. This one might actually be worth a small amount of effort, but I'll help you get through the options more quickly.

There are a number of DVD's out there for consideration and a several more multi-movie packs. I'll compare a couple of those below.

I've run across copies of the film in 2 different multi-packs. I'll compare them to give you an idea of the quality you can expect from other releases. I'll start with the Chilling 20 pack.

Video:

1.33: There is no widescreen version. The image is very grainy, somewhat fuzzy, and contains a little trash.

Audio:

1.0 mono: This is low quality with a mix so poor that it muddles some of the dialogue (it's like the low mids have been pumped way up while other frequencies are way too low).

Packaging:

The disc comes in a paper sleeve that lives in a plastic case. You can get more details about the set as a whole by checking out the Chilling (20 pack) guide.

Extras:

No extras at all for this one.

Other Editions:

For the most part all of the releases appear to offer exactly the same thing as the ones I've just described.

The only exception is the BCI Digital Media Experience release which does appear to offer some extras though I couldn't find any details on them. I also couldn't find any comments on the quality.

Final Thoughts:

Moon of the Wolf is an OK movie for a dated, low-budget outing, but don't expect much out of the quality of any of these releases. Just go with whichever one gives you the best deal unless you want to chance the extras you might get with the BCI release.

Next up is the Drive In Movie Classics 50 pack.

Video:

1.33: Again the image is extremely grainy and somewhat fuzzy.

Audio:

1.0 mono: This has the same weak mix as the other release.

Packaging:

This is similar to the other set, just larger. Discs are contained in paper sleeves which fit inside a plastic case. You can read about the set as a whole in great detail in the Drive In Movie Classics (50 pack) guide.

Extras:

No extras for this one, either.
