Werewolf (‐)
Synopsis
Werewolf follows Eric Cord (John J. York), a college graduate student whose life takes a terrifying turn after his best friend, Ted, confesses that he is a werewolf. Skeptical at first, Eric is forced to believe when he witnesses Ted’s horrifying transformation. In a desperate act of self-defense, Eric kills his friend—but not before being bitten.
Now cursed with lycanthropy, Eric bears the dreaded pentagram mark on his palm, signaling each coming transformation. The only way to end the curse is to destroy the originator of his bloodline—the elusive and sinister Captain Janos Skorzeny (Chuck Connors).
Haunted and hunted, Eric sets out on a cross-country quest to track down and destroy Skorzeny, even as bounty hunter Alamo Joe Rogan (Lance LeGault) pursues him with unwavering determination after Eric misses his court hearing for Ted’s death. But the deeper his journey takes him, the more terrifying the truth becomes: the curse originates not with Skorzeny at all, but with Nicholas Remy (Brian Thompson), a powerful and ancient werewolf.
