Njengoba "eqhakaza" (ugh) ngokuya ocansini kwakhe okusha kanye noshintsho lwe-lupine (impungushe iyisikhathi sokuthomba!), Udadewabo ulwela ukumqinisa.

Kuyindlela ehlakaniphile futhi eyanelisayo ukuthatha i-werewolf lore, futhi kwenziwa umbono omubi emphakathini wesabekayo njengenye yamafilimu anamandla kakhulu emlandweni wakamuva.
