The Reel Rap boys are howling into the mics this time around as they discuss Mike Nichols’ baffling Wolf. I know what you’re thinking, “Jack Nicholson going wolf-mode? That’s gotta be good!” Think again, buddy!
Sometimes a movie’s cast, crew, and premise are just too good to be true. That’s definitely the case with 1994’s Wolf. The film not only promises lycanthropic, Tex Avery antics from Jack Nicholson and James Spader, but features a Michelle Pfeiffer performance, an Ennio Morricone score, sets from Academy Award winner Bo Welch, and uncredited rewrites from the one and only Elaine May. Somehow, all these great chefs cook up a pretty dismal pot of bisque. Instead of subjecting yourself to Wolf, listen to Shane and Bennett discuss Jack Nicholson’s lackadaisical run, Rick Baker’s worst stab at creature effects, and the several eras of James Spader’s career.
