Anybody got a silver bullet? Anybody? Please?
Uhgggh. This movie was just horrible. It begins where a crew of excavators unearths the skeleton of a werewolf in the Arizona desert. The fakest skeleton I've ever seen,loaded up with all kinds of knobby growths and claws.... The skull actually has bone ears growing from it---BONE EARS---I guess just in case you forget that it's a werewolf skeleton. Anyway, all you have to do is get scratched by the skeleton, and you turn into a werewolf!!! Like within twenty minutes. Oh dear God. One of the excavators, this withered, batrachian-looking creep named Yuri, decides, for no reason whatsoever, to run around and scratch people with the skeleton, thus making more werewolves. This scheme elevates him to the status of one of the guest villains from Josie and the Pussycats---and I think that in a fight the Pussycats would take Yuri down in round one.

At one point, Yuri drugs a security guard, then, I guess, infects him somehow. So the security guard wakes up, and walks out in the parking lot to his car. Along the way he starts growing hair and fangs, and doesn't even notice. He gets in his car, and drives off, while he continues to transform. Both of his hands stay on the steering wheel, and his driving doesn't seem to suffer AS HE TURNS INTO A WEREWOLF. HE DOES NOT NOTICE HIS OWN FUR-TUFTED CLAWED HANDS AT THE WHEEL! AND HIS HAT STAYS ON HIS HEAD THROUGHOUT THE TRANSFORMATION. I've almost wrecked my car dropping cigarette butts in my lap, and this guy turns into a hairy demon and doesn't even miss a stop sign.

As all of this occurs, Yuri is driving behind the guard, watching and grinning gleefully, though he is in a car three hundred yards behind the guard, it's night, and he can see nothing, he's still grinning like he just got lucky with a prom queen. I would have to say, avoid this movie like the plague of lycanthropy, and try to avoid the desert, because evidently that's where all the werewolves are.

This has got to be one of the worst movies I've ever seen. If you must watch it, try to watch the MST3K version. It is so ridiculous in every way. Bad everything.

Fans of Joe Estevez
First of all, I would like to clear something up. The cover to this movie, sucks. It does NOT look cool. Second, what the heck was Mr. Zarindast thinking when he directed this piece of crap? Did he say, "I won't do this movie unless Joe Estevez is in it, I owe his brother a favor." Did he purposely direct this movie so that it would suck? I hope so, because that's what it is. Anyway, let me explain. All the actors have accents, and dumb names. An indian turns into a werewolf because he got in a fight and got pushed and fell on a skeleton. Joe Estevez was in the movie, then he disappeared. Then this guy moves in with an old man, gets hit in the back with the werewolf head, and thus, we have another werewolf. And kids, if making out in a car, and you see a werewolf, would you get out of the car just to run and fall and get killed by it? I didn't think so. This is an example of the script: Act 3 Parked car, boy and girl making out. Werewolf approaches. Girl sees werewolf. Girl gets out of car, runs. She falls. FALLING REQUIRED!! Werewolf kills girl. End scene. Just an example of great movie making. The werewolf doesn't even look decent. These guys need a tip from Michael Jackson's Thriller. They would have learned a thing or two. And the fight scenes, Whoa! They blew me away. Out of the room. Krap! When the werewolf is attacking someone, all you see is the stupid mask, and the man he is attacking blocks his face with his arms. You never actually see the werewolf attack, he has no arms (it wasn't in the budget) so the man gets wounds, and is bleeding. He may have just scratched himself with his own wristwatch. I am not sure. There is this whole billiard scene, which has nothing to do with anything. One amusing part is when an old security guard is injected with essence of werewolf, he gets into his car and drives. As he drives, he is changing into a werewolf. He eventually crashes. So, any werewolf fans, if your collection is lacking, please do NOT buy this. It is not worth it. If there are any Joe Estevez fans out there, you must buy this. The only other movie that I know of that he actually stars in is Soultaker. Thus, my review. I hope I have warned you before you watched this film, and for all the unfornunate ones who have seen this, there is therapy available. It's working wonders for me...
