Mystery Science Theater 3000: Werewolf



Where oh werewolf?
Ah, werewolf movies. They're like the little girl with the curl -- when they're good, they're very very good, and when they're bad, they're.... fodder for MST3K.

Such is the fate of "Werewolf," Tony Zarindast's tale of lycanthropy and stupidity -- a sloppy, ineptly-assembled pile of FAIL from the first scene to the last, with acting worthy of a Razzie and a plot apparently dreamed up during a bad hangover. So of course, Mike and the bots tackle all the hilarious stupidity with good grace... when they aren't having identity crises.

Mike's attempts to escape back down to Earth are foiled by Pearl and Brain Guy, so he ends up climbing right back to the Satellite just in time for "Werewolf." When they aren't watching the movie, Mike accidentally becomes infected with Crow's essence and begins turning into a WereCrow. I don't think the world is ready for two of them.

As for the movie itself: it's about a bunch of archaeologists who find a "wur-wilf"...

"You is" going to love this
Be"waurrrr" the surprise ending and make sure that you are never cut by any weird bones. Also, defending yourself by crossing your arms over your face may not work a werewolf, but it could (potentially) help you survive this movie!

One of the best MST3K movies.
My personal favorite is The Final Sacrifice, but this movie is absolute gold. From the awkward performances to plot lines that are never resolved to terrible American accents that slowly give way to Russian ones. The story makes no sense, blue tint on the lens is used for night time shots, and there seems to be 3 different plots and movies unfolding at the same time. I want to keep talking about it, but just watch it. It is hilarious.
