    RELEASED IN 1985 and directed by Rod Daniel, Teen Wolf stars Michael J. Fox as a teen in Beacontown, Nebraska, who works at his Dads shop in town (James Hampton), plays basketball for his lousy school team and enjoys a friendship with a neighborhood girl (Susan Ursitti) while desiring the popular blonde (Lorie Griffin). Complications result when he starts turning into a werewolf.

    This was actually Foxs first theatrical film, made BEFORE the mega-successful Back to the Future but released afterward. By comparison its a decidedly small movie, but enjoyable for what it is (an 80s teen flick). The second act takes a turn that I wasnt expecting. No spoilers, but the movie poster tells all.

    I liked the closing moral: Dont lose yourself ...
