and Blood and Chocolate (2007)...poof tf into full wolf, again only eyes and mental and again the female was more a submissive.

Actually, the werewolf was female in “Cursed,” played by Judy Greer ("Jurassic World"). I’m sure you’re aware they actually had the legendary Rick Baker designing the werewolf and even the TF (he posted a few pics on Twitter years ago), but for some godforsaken reason (probably money), they fired him and hired some cheap CGI BS. Also, what a waste to have a werewolf movie star the lovely Christina Ricci as one of the beasts, and all they do is throw contact lenses and vampire fangs on her. “Cursed,” indeed (old joke, I know).
Words cannot describe the disappointment that the “Blood and Chocolate” movie was. Besides the “poof TFs,” as you mentioned, it was based on my favorite werewolf novel, and the story was NOTHING like the book. All they did was keep the character names and title of the property (oh, and there were werewolves involved). Also, at one point, Jennifer Love Hewitt was supposed to star in it, and at the time, she was my favorite actress looks-wise, so that would’ve been a huge treat for me.
