I like horror and i even like cheesy horror if it's done right but this one was too much. I really tried to like it but just couldn't give into the badness of this movie. It came across as an after school special that was trying to be hip and failed. It did leave me with a lot of questions. Why isn't everyone at first scared of teen-wolf? When did werewolves become good at basketball? When did becoming a teen-wolf mean you were good at doing flips? When does becoming someone that looks like bigfoot make a nerd popular? Why does the soundtrack have to be so horrible? Why does everyone dance so bad? Why is michael j fox acting the same in this as he has done in everything else?
