i can not honestly believe that this be a sequel or follow up of john landis classic comedy horror movie from 1981 . i suppose you can not really describe it a an original werewolf movie either since the bare bone of the story steal element from the one set in london represent an american tourist visit a famous european capital and he narrowly survive a werewolf attack that kill a colleague and he embark ( pardon the pun ) on a sexual relationship with someone in the medical profession and he turn into a werewolf and he visit by apparition of his dead victim and etc etc . and read the previous line i have just discover how much the storyline have in common with the original that it seem very similar indeed . the difference lie in how enjoyable and entertain the landis movie be with this paris base movie there no scene that really stand out . there no naked man wake up in a zoo wonder how he go to get back home with no money or clothes and there no bizarre dream sequence of naziwerewolves and there no spectacular climax . aawip do try to be funny but be there anything more embarrass than fail humour . i be think of the scene where andy mcdermott have to convince someone he get chew gum in his pocket and not condom . perhaps the big difference between the two movie be that there no poignancy involve with this dubious follow up . you really do feel sorry for the protagonist fate and dilemma in the london movie and here you just feel andy be nothing more than a cypher go through the literary motion of a script . there also a large number of plot hole visible . be this the first time the lunar club have carry out a massacre . if not then aren not large number of corps with their heart tear out be report in the world press . why haven not the police get lead . everyone else have mention it and so will i the visuals be poor . look at the bungee jump scene at the eifell tower and it painfully obvious that it achieve via some blue screen projection while the werewolf transformation be do by some very cartoonish cgi . i would not put anthony waller in the same bracket a stephen sommers a a director who totally ruin a movie because of an over reliance on cgi ( the major problem with aawip be the screenplay couple with a high degree of expectation from those who saw the 1981 movie classic ) but i would have prefer the rick baker type special effect use for the transformation . to be fair it reasonable to speculate that perhaps the budget do not stretch that far . but at the end of the day this be a fairly poor horror movie that do not need to be make and dog soldier be much well entertainment .
