Lykantropia

About This Movie

Lykantropia is an interesting piece from 1981 that dives into a surreal world where wolves, surprisingly, turn out to be humans in costumes. The animation is quite peculiar, giving it a unique vibe that feels almost disjointed at times. The pacing is offbeat, kind of meandering, which adds to its odd charm. The themes of identity and primal instincts are there, but it's the practical effects that stand out; you can tell they had fun crafting those wolf suits. It creates this bizarre, almost unsettling atmosphere. The performances are exaggerated, almost theatrical, making it feel like a strange avant-garde experiment. Definitely one of those lesser-known gems that makes you think, and just a little uncomfortable.
