VJP 241 Teen Wolf 1985

On this howlingly entertaining episode, the Video Junkyard Podcast checks out the 1985 teen comedy "Teen Wolf". Directed by Rod Daniel, written by Jeph Loeb and Matthew Weisman, and staring Michael J. Fox, James Hampton, Jerry Levine, Susan Ursitti, and Lori Griffin, "Teen Wolf" tells of an ordinary high school student (Fox) who discovers that his family has an unusual pedigree when he finds himself turning into a werewolf. And of course according to legend, this makes him incredibly popular and great at basketball. The film has been the base and inspiration for a 1987 sequel, a short-lived Saturday morning cartoon, and a popular teen/adult drama series in 2011-2017. But how is the original in retrospect?
