Werewolves

Due to my sister being a huge fan of Taylor L, I decided to write this. Werewolves do not look like over sized wolves, those are just over-sized wolves, which is a rather new and less gruesome idea. I like the classic werewolves whose clothes ripped off because their body grew massively, their bones cracked and reformed into new joints, and their human skin peeled off to allow fur. Does this make me weird? I don't care, it is my opinion. Underworld is one of the more recent movies that follows the first two points. However, lycans are not going to transform so painlessly and quickly. Even if there was magic involved, there is no way that you can completely grow new muscles, fur, a whole new skeleton and new fangs without large agonizing amounts of PAIN! You would be writhing for who knows how long as you transform. In the older versions of werewolves, they killed livestock and villagers and were the kind of thing your mother would warn you about as she tucked you into bed.There is no glory in being  monster. Werewolves have been around for a very long time, and the versions and twists on them vary significantly. However, if you had the massive amounts of transformation pain, you would need a lot of nutrients and be driven insane by the pain. On the full moon only, is also irrational because how long would it take for someone to go transformation like that, rampage and turn back? I would say a few days at least. You have to survive being bitten by a werewolf to become one is also  a pain. If they have been driven out of their mind and need massive amounts of food, how on earth do you survive to the next full moon? I suppose that there are miracles, but this was back when surgery was often lethal. So werewolves would be far and in between right? Wrong, if they only had to bite you to turn you, what about the women they had sex with and exchanged fluids and their children? This is supposing that the werewolf got his sanity back when he turned human again and that he is contagious when he is human. So what other historical monsters can I tear apart and poke at the 'facts' of?
