Werewolf? There 'Wolf'

Caught up with the 1994 film "Wolf" tonight, courtesy of Comcast HD for free. Some random thoughts on seeing it again all these years later:
* "Wolf" featured more slow-motion scenes than a full season of "The Six Million Dollar Man." Apparently, whenever director Mike Nichols cried "action," he was just fooling.
* Jack Nicholson's hairline defies time and follicle science. He belongs to a rare club, along with Woody Allen and Sting, of men who started to lose their hair early on but somehow their scalp never went the full Monty. Maybe each does a little hocus-pocus to freeze the process, but it still fascinates me.
* Boy, Michelle Pfeiffer sure was bewitching to behold in the '90s. Glad she's back making films again.
* Is there a better yuppie villain than James Spader?
* Love Ennio Morricone's score, an homage to those '30s horror flicks. If only they could digitally add Abbott & Costello into the film for a cameo ...
Variety's Todd McCarthy officially breaks the film down, and I agree with his criticisms, here.
