This is it, the first film to REALLY mix comedy and horror successfully. Two American students are attacked by a werewolf when they wander off a country road. One is killed, the other is infected with the beastly condition. As the night falls, he is unable to control himself and transforms into a werewolf. Each person he kills haunts him, as they cannot rest until the bloodline of the werewolf is severed. The corpses make a dark situation hilarious, with dozens of clever quips. Griffin Dunne, as the surviving American's undead (and rapidly decaying) friend is one of the highlights.
