She-Wolf of London (1946)

She-Wolf of London (1946) is a historic romantic foggy London lupine lycanthropic murder mystery police procedural women alone in a gothic mansion average film of mystery which certainly qualifies for film noir in many aspects and without offering too many spoilers, is also much within the paranoid woman genre, although which is somewhat blended in the not too wolfy mix — though don't go be expectin no monsters cuz there bain't be none I'm afraid.

The Brute Man (1946)

The Brute Man (1946) is an exploitation noir-style civic horror B-feature in which social fears of deformity seem to come alive in the rather blunt capitalisation of the medical misfortunes of Rondo Hatton, some time proto-horror star and former journalist who found a career in film due to his unique facial features, which were the result of acromegaly. Hatton headlined horror films with Universal Studios near the end of his life, earning him a reputation as a cult icon.

In The Brute Man, Hatton plays Hal Moffet. He’s a handsome college athlete disfigured by a chemistry lab accident. Raging at the friend he blames for his misfortune, he sets off on a killing spree. 

This neatly parallels Hatton’s real biography. He was once an athletic youth, but war and disease changed his body.
