I hated how they looked in the movie. Sorry. Good concept until they came up with that. I like the villian werewolf in Half Blood Prince. Let's hope they use him really well.

I don't recall them ever being described fully, but it's been years since I read it. I do remember on the werewolf test there are mentioned ways to distinguish a werewolf from a normal wolf (tufted tail and something about the pupils) so presumably they were intended to look like a basic wolf and not a mangy baboon on stilts.

*laughs madly*

Can someone tell me how come the werewolf bad dude looks kinda beastly in human form and the Professor Lupin looks human? Just curious I like the bad guy's look.

who Fenrir Greyback? he was a werewolf for a long time and i recall something about his appearance being affected by it and the fact that he enjoys shifting and killing/changing people
but then again i cant really remember that well and i still havent read the deathly hollow so....

yeah Fenrir. I was curious how come he looked moreso like a werewolf in his "human" state than Lupin does.
