The Horror Show: A Horror Movie Podcast

Sean and Lexi continue their werewolf-movie streak and focus on American Werewolf in Paris (1997), discussing how they expected a more direct, elegant follow-up to American Werewolf in London but instead got a teen-focused horror romp. They recap only the broad strokes: American teens in Paris, the Eiffel Tower bungee setup, Andy saving Serafin and getting pulled into a werewolf/ghost-filled mess involving wolf parties, murders, and a later science-y explanation for the curse. They call out the movie’s heavy use of ghosts, wild tonal swings, and notably bad CGI, then briefly jump to future plans: keeping the two-movie format, picking Wolfen next, and eventually doing the Twilight movies.

Sean and Lexi dedicate the episode to Lexi’s late dog Rafa and start a werewolf-movie run, focusing their main discussion on Wolf (1994) after also recording coverage of Bad Moon for Patreon. They highlight Wolf’s key creatives and cast (including director Mike Nichols and stars Jack Nicholson, Michelle Pfeiffer, and James Spader) and recap the central setup: Nicholson’s publishing executive is bitten after hitting a wolf, begins changing, and faces escalating personal and workplace turmoil involving Spader’s character and Nicholson’s wife. The conversation touches on major story turns, the werewolf transformation elements, and the film’s climax and ending.
