This is probably one of the shittiest, shit-ass werewolf movies! Right from the start it's just a boring voice-over narration that leads into a dull story mixing all the excitement of Washington D.C. politics with a stupid looking Wolfman in a suit and tie played by Dean Stockwell who would go on to be that fucking suave guy in BLUE VELVET. I imagine since this came out around the time of the Watergate scandal that it's supposed to be some sort of a commentary on that but it's all played pretty straight(except for one scene where our hero gets his fingers stuck in a bowling ball) that it's never really clear what the comment is supposed to be. On the plus side there is a midget mad scientist named Dr. Kiss and midgets always make things better. There's also a racist aide to the president who wears some killer shades that seemed like he woulda been a more interesting werewolf but sadly this was not to be. Also disappointingly our monster never wears that stupid Uncle Sam hat in the poster.
