Underworld: Rise of the Lycans (2009)

The Lycan suit moulds from Underworld: Evolution were reused for Underworld: Rise of the Lycans, in order to craft a new batch of suits. These new Lycan suits were given a slightly different paint job, as well as longer fur being applied to give them a more 'wild' appearance.
Rise of the Lycans introduced 'proper' werewolves. The werewolf suits and heads were reuses of the William werewolf moulds from Evolution, with the William suit's head itself being repainted and used for closeup shots of the werewolves. One of these suits was expertly restored by Tom Spina, allowing the suit to be seen in full; the story of the restoration (and recreation of its missing hands and feet) can be seen on his website.
