gavin6942 Waldemar (Paul Naschy), the renowned adventurer, joins an expedition to find the Yeti in the Himalayas. While hiking the mountains, he is captured by two cannibalistic demon nymphets guarding a remote Buddhist temple and becomes their sex slave.This film ignores the events from the earlier films "The Fury of the Wolfman" (1970) and "Curse of the Devil" (1972), and provided an all-new origin for Waldemar's lycanthropy, having the curse transmitted by the bites of not one, but two, vampire women! The mix of supernatural creatures is certainly a good deal of fun.The film was banned in the UK by the BBFC under the Video Recordings Act of 1984 and was featured on the "Video Nasties" list. It has allegedly never been released in the UK. But for us lucky Americans, the film is now available on Blu-ray from Scream! Factory. It is fairly bare bones, with no commentary or other features, but we do get to choose between English and Spanish, which is nice.

Theo Robertson With a title like THE WEREWOLF AND THE YETI you know what you're getting for your money - a schlock European horror that has a certain notoriety because it was banned by the UK video censors . To be honest the film has a great opening hook that caused this viewer to jump out his seat . Then we get a blast of music that doesn't really go with the film along with lurid garish titles . So far so good The film then cuts to a panning establishing shot of a city with bagpipes playing over the soundtrack which can only mean we are in one place , the home of the bagpipes and tartan - London England . It's at this point the producers of this film should forget all about werewolves and Yeti and start worrying about five million angry Scotsmen This then cuts to an interior where two characters Professor Lacombe and Waldemar Daninsky mention photographic evidence of the Yeti via an expedition that went missing in Kathmandu . Lacombe tells Daninsky he is going to lead an expedition and wants Daninsky to come along because he " knows Tibet and speaks Nepalese " . You can't help thinking this is a goof of sorts because what's the use of knowing Nepalese if you're going to Tibet which would be behind the bamboo curtain and inaccessible to Westerners . I wonder if the makers thought Nepal and Tibet are the same place . I mean if you confuse London with Scotland Cut to some images of vaguely oriental architecture which I'm guessing is to signify Nepal and an interior shot which could have been anywhere with the expedition members discussing getting a guide in Kathmandu . Eh ? Aren't they supposed to be in Kathmandu ? Why do characters feel the need to constantly spout that they're in Kathmandu . It merely draws the audiences attention to the fact that this wasn't filmed in Kathmandu . By the way Nepal is a Hindu country and the expedition guide looks suspiciously like a Sikh . He also calls everyone " Sahib " an Indian phrase . Note to producers : If you're trying to set a scene in Kathmandu get half a dozen Nepalese extras and get them to smile and say " Hey my friend where you from ? You want hash ? / a trekking guide ? / a sexy Nepalese woman ? " because this will be totally convincingCut to a jeep driving slowly along a path with a couple of stone huts by the roadside with the camera locked head on in a close shot with a couple of Oriental actors walking by . I guess this is a vain attempt to establish the action is taking place in a remote area of Nepal or Tibet . Let me guess - since this is a Spanish film this scene was shot in Spain somewhere ? Cut to a remote village in Nepal/Tibet /Spain where the primitive natives enchant the expedition with some traditional folk dancing which I have seen and can verify its authenticity . Not from Nepal but on travel shows featuring Barbary Coast folk dances . Hmmm Barbary Coast folk dances in Nepal/Tibet ? It becomes very clear by this point that the notoriety surrounding this film has nothing to do with any horror aspect but everything to do with the makers not bothering their backsides to research even the most cursory aspect of the narrative settings . That said it is absolutely fascinating pointing out to yourself each and every blatant geographical mistake the movie makes so there is some fun to this movie and that's not necessarily a bad thing

BA_Harrison If you've seen any of Paul Naschy's other 'hombre lobo' films, you probably have a pretty good idea of what to expect from The Werewolf and the Yeti—schlocky dialogue, hammy acting, Naschy once again sporting terrible wolf make-up, some sexy Euro-totty, and a bit of unrealistic bright-red gore. In short, a fun slice of very silly Spanish monster madness.One can only presume, therefore, that it must have been one hell of a slow day at the office when the BBFC/DPP decided to stick The Werewolf and the Yeti on the Official Nasties list: the film has its unsavoury moments, as do most horror films, but there's nothing to warrant it being lumped with likes of genuinely disturbing flicks such as Cannibal Holocaust, Faces of Death and Gestapo's Last Orgy. Any violence or sadism in The Werewolf and the Yeti is handled in such a camp manner that it's almost impossible to take offence at.Take the flaying of sexy young scientist Melody (the gorgeous Verónica Miriel) by evil bitch Wandessa (Silvia Solar), for example: the effects are so cheap and unrealistic that one cannot help but find the scene amusing, no matter how repulsive the idea. Likewise, the sight of one of the scientists impaled on a wooden stake (ala Cannibal Holocaust) is rendered laughable by the fact that he is not only still alive, but also capable of holding a conversation with our hero.Also providing mucho unintentional chuckles: the scene where Naschy kills a pair of semi-naked werewolf/vampire/witch women (but only after having sex with them both, of course); the ridiculous fight between Naschy and dermatologically challenged bandit/warlord Sekkar Khan (Luis Induni); and the rousing finale, in which our hero, transformed into a drooling beast by the full moon, rescues his love Sylvia (Mercedes Molina) from the abominable snowman.It's all utter nonsense, not at all scary and certainly not nasty enough to deserve being banned, but still worth a go if you're in the mood for a bit of a giggle.

HumanoidOfFlesh In "The Werewolf and the Yeti" we follow the renowned adventures of Waldemar Daninsky across the Himalayas as he is out on an expedition to find the Yeti.Waldemar ends up getting lost in the mountains,where he meets two cannibalistic sex starved nymphos in the cave.Sleaze comes thick and fast as Naschy becomes sex slave of the women.As a result he turns into werewolf,who wreaks havoc in the mountains.The final battle between him and the Yeti is a laugh riot.Cheesy and dumb trash with a healthy dose of nudity and a little bit of gore.One unfortunate woman gets her back skinned in the film's most gruesome scene.The acting is bad and the special effects are even worse.6 out of 10.
