Straight after going 'back to the future', Michael J. Fox was Teen Wolf in this '80s comedy fantasy. Shy, bog-standard Scott discovers a werewolf family lineage and uses his new found power for popularity, girls and basketball. Amazingly, Teen Wolf would spawn a sequel (1987, with Jason Bateman taking Fox's role), an animated series (1986) and a live-action MTV series (2011 to 2014).

"Lightweight item is innocuous and well-intentioned but terribly feeble, another example of a decent idea yielding the least imaginative results conceivable."

Variety
Variety"Apart from one not very ambitious transformation, the budget requires other boy-wolf-boy switches to happen off-screen."

Time Out
Time Out"The special effects aren't super, but the movie isn't important enough to damage the classic werewolf myth. No silver bullet is needed to dispatch this movie. It dies a natural death as one looks on."
