From a cinematic/storytelling point-of-view, the term 'werewolf' is generally used when the creature itself is a quadruped, resembling a wolf more than a human. 'Wolfman' tends to be used when the creature is bipedal and still roughly-humanoid, usually (much like the Hulk) with it's modesty still miraculously covered by what's left of its shirt and trousers. All-in-all, they're intended to be same thing, it just depends on the author/director's particular vision; I'm not aware of any continuity where both versions co-exist.

∙ 12y agoThere is no difference between the two terms. The word 'were' derives from the word 'wer' meaning man. This makes the literal translation of 'werewolf' as 'manwolf'. This is pretty much the same as saying wolfman.
