V. intriguing... so much so, actually, that I have to ask: what does it mean? During my morning coffee I've come up with three guesses:
One: the werewolf works so well as a concept that you can throw him in wherever you want him when you're building a story. Come to think of it, the werewolf part of Van Helsing excused itself a lot better than the rest of the movie.
Two: the werewolf has a kind of diplomatic immunity and can't be held responsible for anything he does, or for being a werewolf, or simply for being, period. He can just go "don't look at ME buddy, I'm a werewolf".
Three: it is, in fact, the quote itself that's so catchy IT'S its own excuse. In which case I should not, of course, be asking.
