After... Ahh, the City of Lights, full of marvels to tempt three boorish American backpackers: the Champs-Elysees, the Left Bank, the racist gangs of disaffected young right-wing lycanthropes. After rescuing a desperate woman from a swan dive off the Eiffel tower, a collegian discovers her scary, hairy secret--too late. The direction emphasizes the cornball humor of its predecessor, "An American Werewolf in London," and a blitzkrieg of computer effects. [More]

The humor isn't funny, the horror isn't scary, and the digital wolf f/x look cheap.

If you liked ...London for its wit, chances are this one will fall flat for you as it did for me.
