Summary

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.
