an amazing horror.
Actually I expected “Werewolf Of Washington” to be some kinda cheesy wolfman-crap, but surprisingly, it turned out to be a witty and entertaining political satire about the US president’s press assistant who gets bitten by a werewolf.
Of course, it has its flaws: it’s an obvious low-budget production, mediocrely directed, written and paced.
The sets all look extremely tacky, the special effects are poor and the werewolf costume looks rather silly.
Apart from that, I totally enjoyed it. It’s filled with hilarious and memorable scenes that made me laugh my ass off, f.e. the hilarious scene where the assistant’s fingers get stuck in a bowling ball, the funny telephone booth attack, the werewolf transformation in the helicopter, the hiding-in-the-toilet scene, the appearance (and disappearance) of Dr. Kiss, and many, many more.
Furthermore, it’s also filled with loads of
hysterical dialogue lines, f.e.:
~ “The sign of the pentagram.” – “Ah, the Pentagon is behind all of this!”
~ “I have called this conference because of the mass hysteria in our tragedy surrounding a case, we’re all very much a Were… (coughs) aware! …were.”
~ “I have already sent the chopper over there to pick you up… Chopper! Um…Heli… Heli-Chopper. You know… Brrr-rrr.”
In addition, the acting is quite decent, especially Dean Stockwell and Biff McGuire as goofy president. The werewolf attacks are mostly quite atmospheric and there’s even some ok gore.
An absurd but unique and totally enjoyable political werewolf comedy that you have to see!
It was silly,but you know what your in for whenever she hosts a movie.I wish she would put out a box set of all the seasons and episodes she’s done.There’s only a handful on dvd and I cant find anywhere to download the rest of them from.
