the original film make in 1981 and the howling have so much go for it that it be a great film . this entry try to repeat with almost the same plot and different name and profession and a different outcome but it have nothing that make it worthwhile to watch again . no humor and no sense in have the lead woman play a writer instead of a tv reporter be help by a dead nun . the one cute character have a very small role and the family poodle that dead . this one must be real bad if i like the dog well than the people .
