The Real Wolfman

While solving the crime of a mysterious beast that viciously attacked and killed 102 villagers in the French village of Gevaudan in the mid 1700s is a perfect topic for a History Channel show, it’s the Odd Couple teaming of cryptozoologist Ken Gerhardt and veteran criminal profiler George Deuchar that makes this DVD so much fun to watch. They may never be friends – in fact, one gets the feeling that there are plenty of outtakes left off the DVD of the pair going at each other pretty intensely – it’s fascinating to see how this dysfunctional duo put their personal feelings about each other aside to try and get to the truth about who – or what – killed all those people.
