One of the more anticipated upcoming films from Universal Pictures this year for myself and many others is their re-telling of the classic monster tale of The Wolfman. Anyone else find it funny that the website finally came online on a full moon?

Lawrence Talbot, a haunted nobleman, is lured back to his family estate after his brother vanishes. Reunited with his estranged father, Talbot sets out to find his brother… and discovers a horrifying destiny for himself. Talbot’s childhood ended the night his mother died. After he left the sleepy Victorian hamlet of Blackmoor, he spent decades recovering and trying to forget. But when his brother’s fiancée, Gwen Conliffe, tracks him down to help find her missing love, Talbot returns home to join the search. He learns that something with brute strength and insatiable bloodlust has been killing the villagers, and that a suspicious Scotland Yard inspector named Aberline has come to investigate.

On the site you can check out a huge gallery of pictures, trailers, features and cool downloads. The film stars Benicio Del Toro along with Anthony Hopkins, Emily Blunt and Hugo Weaving. The Wolfman is directed by Joe Johnston and claws away into theaters everywhere on February 12th, 2010. Is it February 12th yet?
