Trivia

Since this movie was released after Back to the Future in Brazil, "Teen Wolf" received the title "Garoto do Futuro" ("Boy from the Future") there, even though the plot has nothing to do with time travel whatsoever. See more »

Goofs

Errors made by characters (possibly deliberate errors by the filmmakers): While in the hardware store, Scott hears the kid blowing the dog whistle; However, Harold is completely unaffected despite also being a werewolf. See more »
