“It started in May. In a small town. And every month after that whenever the moon was full...It came back.”
In John Carpenter’s Silver Bullet, the quaint town of Tarker's Mills is besieged by a wave of gruesome killings, prompting residents to barricade themselves indoors at night. Yet, amid the paranoia, rumors of a monstrous, hirsute creature circulating the woods fuel the terror. Amidst this maelstrom, a young boy, Will, remains an enigmatic presence, his perspective offering a chilling intimacy to the town’s escalating dread.
