Teen Wolf (1985)

The trailer for Teen Wolf revisits the 1985 comedy that gave Michael J. Fox a howling good role. Scott Howard is an average high school student, tired of being ordinary and of playing on a losing basketball team. Then he discovers that he has inherited a family secret: he is a werewolf. Once the hair and fangs come out, Scott becomes the most popular guy at school and the star of the team, until he starts to wonder whether people like him or just the wolf. Michael J. Fox plays Scott, with James Hampton as his father, Susan Ursitti, Jerry Levine as his best friend Stiles and Scott Paulin. Rod Daniel directs. Atlantic Releasing put the film in theaters on August 23, 1985, weeks after Back to the Future. It is available to rent or buy digitally.
