Trivia
The scene where Will hunts a deer was filmed day for night.
Share this
Mia Farrow was slated to play Charlotte Randall. Mike Nichols had to fight to let Farrow have the part, due to the film company's hesitancy over her being too controversial at the time (the then current Mia Farrow/Woody Allen trial). She had to take a salary cut but in the long run she had to bow out anyway due to schedule conflicts.

Although the film is about a werewolf, that particular word is never mentioned.

Goofs
The black man who pulls a gun on Will and is attacked by him is extremely light skinned. When Will later pulls out the man's fingers while in the restroom, they are dark skinned.

When Stewart attacks Will with a pitchfork, the tines bend and show that it is a prop. In the next shot, the tines are straight and are now sticking into Will's shoulder.

The rearing stallion at Raymond's is two different horses. When Will walks up to Raymond's horses, the prize dark bay stallion, with just a white star on his forehead and a white snip on his nose, rears up. When the camera moves back to the side shot of the rearing horse, it is now a red sorrel color with a full wide white blaze extending all the way from his forehead to his nose. Then when the camera returns to the next shot, it is the dark bay horse again.

Q
How does the movie end?
A
After talking with Stewart at the police station and realizing what he has become, Laura rushes back to the barn where Will has had himself locked in a stall. When Stewart realizes that Laura has left the station, he goes after her, breaking down the estate barricade and killing the gatekeeper in the process. Stewart attacks Laura in the barn, just outside of Will's locked stall, and tries to rape her. Will attempts to escape the cage but cannot. In desperation, Will rips off the amulet given to him by Dr Alezais and allows his further transformation. Getting back his wolfen abilities, Will finally leaps 20 feet into the air over the top of the stall and, as he and Stewart continue to transform, Will fights off Stewart until Laura finally disposes of Stewart by firing several bullets into him. Unfortunately, Will's transformation has gone too far, and there is no turning back. He bids Laura goodbye and runs off to join the wolf pack. Several hours later, after Raymond has returned home, discovered the body of the gatekeeper, and called in the police, Laura emerges from her cottage claiming not to have witnessed anything except for some shots being fired. As she walks away, she mentions to the detective that she can tell he had a vodka tonic and can smell it a mile away. In the final scene, a yellow-eyed wolf howls and Laura's eyes glow in the same yellow way that Will's eyes glowed, as well as the eyes of the wolf that bit him.
