Teen Wolf is a flip-flop of the horrorific I Was a Teenage Werewolf story: this time, lycanthropy makes the afflicted high-schooler a big man on campus. An otherwise routine teen comedy, this one works because of the customary bounce of Michael J. Fox, in one of his first leading roles (it was shot before Back to the Future but released in that blockbuster's wake, and cashed in nicely). Although his werewolf makeup makes him look more like Bigfoot than Lon Chaney, Jr., Fox manages to convey his peppy personality even under all that hair. Teen Wolf Too, however, is not even bearable. Here Fox is replaced by Jason Bateman, who finds that his wolfish inclination helps him become the big dog on the college boxing team. The sole bright spot is veteran actor Paul Sand as the boxing coach. The rest is howlingly unfunny. - -Robert Horton

From the Back Cover
Teen Wolf: What's a high school kid got to do to be popular? Just let down his hair and howl! Starring Michael J. Fox (Back to the Future), Teen Wolf is an outrageous comedy about a shy teenager with more than a changing voice to contend with... he's a budding young werewolf! And when his newfound powers help him score at basketball--and with the popular girls--he has some pretty hairy decisions to make.

Teen Wolf Too: Meet a college freshman who's having trouble fitting into his "genes"--family ones, that is--when he finds out his uncle and cousin were werewolves... and so is he! Now the clean-cut science student is the star of the boxing team with a hair-raising right hook and an animal attraction to his curvy coeds. Starring Jason Bateman (Necessary Roughness), this four-fang film is sure to bring out the party animal in everyone!

Customer Reviews

"Teen Wolf" Was Robbed
This DVD is a disgrace to the epic masterpiece that is "Teen Wolf." I grew up watching this movie every other day on a scratchy old VHS we taped off of network TV. My brothers and I memorized nearly every line. It's humorous, eccentric, sentimental; a freakin' great movie.

"Teen Wolf Too," on the other hand, should never have existed. It is shameful that instead of loading this disc with extras from the original movie (it would have been great to see some of those scenes shot for TV, or even some commentary and outtakes), they put the ... retread sequel on here, whose first and greatest sin is that it is without Michael J. Fox.

I love the original "Teen Wolf" and the DVD is worth buying just to get a good version of it, but it deserved better treatment. Much, much better. Whoever is responsible for this should be ashamed of themselves.

Teen Wolf is a must-have classic!
I've loved this movie for almost 20 years. It's one of those essential 80's movies that everyone should have in their collection. The soundtrack absolutely ROCKS with some of the most memorable 80's movie tunes (please - someone rerelease the CD!!!) Some of my favorite songs are "Win In the End", "Shooting For the Moon", and "Way To Go". The humor and themes are still relevant today too. And be sure to check out a classic film flub during the end credits (the film editors really missed to boat on this one): an extra wearing a red sweater is seen walking down the grandstands after the big basketball game with his schlong exposed. He quickly zips up before the crew could catch on. Hilarious!

Teen Wolf is a classic! Avoid TWT!
Trust me, you'll want to skip Teen Wolf Too. Michael isn't in it, and it's one of the worst films ever made. Anyway, in "Teen Wolf", Michael J. Fox plays Scott Howard, a loser high schooler who plays on a basketball team that never wins, has a crush on the cutest girl in school, Pamela Wells (she ignores him like the plague), who by the way is dating the most popular hunk in school Mick McAllister, and always has trouble getting beer. So, one night, when he's at a party with his best friends Boof and Styles, something odd happens to Scott. As if he didn't have enough problems...guess what? He's turning into a werewolf! Now Scott has to make sure he can keep his secret! He makes sure to avoid classmates and friends, as well as vice principal Rusty Thorne (who has a grudge against Scott's father, Harold Howard)! However, during a game, Scott turns into the werewolf, and his secret is out. Now, he can play basketball like never before, and gain popularity! While he helps his team win the games, he finally has luck with Pamela, who has taken a new interest in him. It's now up to Scott to choose friends before fame. An 80's classic.
