Tokyo Grand Guignol (Werewolf Transformation)

This is a treat. My thanks to Markus for putting in the time and effort (and money) to track down Tokyo Grand Guignol, a French-made anthology of short films set in Tokyo. The final story, "Good Boy," was prominently featured in the film's trailer and quickly achieved notoriety for a scene involving a werewolf penis. That's right, werewolf penis. Have I got your attention? Well, now we have the complete scene.

Quick synopsis: a lowlife defaces a statue of Hachikō, Japan's most loyal dog, and is punished by being transformed into a sort of dog--or more accurately, a werewolf in S&M gear--who learns to be the loyal pet of a prostitute. In the video below, I've bracketed the transformation with an earlier scene (so you can see the character's human face) and some footage from later on:

In case you wanted to see more of the scene with the you-know-what, Markus has made a video with slow-motion in exactly the right place:



I am 99.99%  sure that Tokyo Grand Guignol is the first movie to seriously show a werewolf's penis transform. Sure, Wolf Cop had a superficially similar scene, but it was played for laughs and the anatomy was neither human nor canine. Tokyo Grand Guignol realistically depicts a human penis shifting into a canine sheath, topped with a pointed tip. For obvious reasons filmmakers have shied away from showing a werewolf's genitals change, but this is unfortunate because even from a non-prurient, non-sexual standpoint the shift from a human to canine phallus is visually interesting, since the two are so different. So hats off to the gutsy folks behind Tokyo Grand Guignol, and let's hope more independent filmmakers follow their example. And please join me in thanking Markus for finding this elusive film and making it available to TF fans with adventurous tastes.
