Fred F. Sears directed this better-than-expected science fiction horror tale that stars Steven Ritch as an auto-accident survivor who is rescued by two scientists who inject him with an experimental serum intended to cure nuclear fallout, but instead has the unfortunate side-effect of turning him into a werewolf, which proceeds to terrorize the local mountain community, with his concerned wife and son in pursuit.
Not bad thriller dispenses with supernatural clichés to present a scientific explanation for the werewolf, an innovative touch. Steven Ritch is excellent, making you care about his tragic plight. Other performances are good, with effective location filming. Memorable bridge climax is fine(if a bit too abrupt). Has some obvious flaws, but otherwise a reasonably tense thriller.
