I really enjoyed the movie(wished it was longer though. The werewolf effects were awesome and the gore was plentiful. But what made this movie rock so much was the fact of Michael Pare starring as Ted. He is one of the coolest actors around and even though he was the "bad guy", i was routing for him throughout the film.

Pare certainly made this film rock even more then it did. Too bad most of his other films are straight to video crap.

You're a good boy, Tommy. Grow up to be a good man. Because if you don't... I'll be waiting.

Michael Paré is the reason I watched this movie in the first place.

BTW: Have you seen his movie "Gargoyle" (2004).

Though direct to video, it is one of the better takes on the gargoyle story. You may enjoy it.

Sadly, I have to agree about so many of his other films being crap — especially the BloodRayne series.

Watched this again recently. Pare - the subtle and emotional stuff he has to do is amazing to watch. He's probably one of the very best actors who are straight-to-video stars. Maybe it's all in Red's direction because he was also great as the ghost in 100 Feet, but I doubt it. Pare played a bad guy in Maximum Conviction, the latest Seagal / Stone Cold Steve Austin movie and he was scary, it looked like he could pop out of the screen and hurt you, that's how great he is.
