Las Noches del Hombre-Lobo, also known as Nights of the Werewolf and Nights of the Wolfman, is a 1968 Spanish horror film that is the second in a long series about the werewolf Count Waldemar Daninsky, played by Paul Naschy.

Plot

Seeing as this is a lost film, little is known about its plot. All that is known of it, as mentioned by Naschy himself, is that the story deals with a professor who learns that a student of his suffers from lycanthropy, and under the guise of helping him, uses him as an instrument of revenge by controlling him by means of sound waves when he transforms. It is possible this film later somehow became the 1970 "FURY OF THE WOLF MAN" as the plots of the two films are similar, and that would explain why "NIGHTS" has since disappeared.

Notes

• This is believed to be a lost film. Some even question if the film ever existed to begin with. The story goes that the director of the film, Rene Govar, was killed in a car accident in Paris right after the film was sent to the lab for processing, and that since no one ever paid the negative costs, the lab held onto the film for collateral and later misplaced it. The mystery deepens when it is learned that there is no record of anyone named Rene Govar ever working in any capacity in the French film industry!
• A recent DVD release of another Naschy film, El Retorno del Hombre Lobo, uses the title Night of the Werewolf, thus easily causing confusion between this film and that film.
