I Was a Teenage Werebear

Any film with songs called "Purge the Urge" and "Love Bit Me on the Ass" has got to be worth a watch! Sean Paul Lockhart is an handsome young man, as yet unsettled with his sexuality, until he falls for the local bad boy "Talon" (Anton Troy - surely a made up name if ever I heard one) who wrestles with him, bites his butt and turns our scantily clad hero into a "werebear". This film is a parody of just about everything from "Grease" (1978) "Rocky Horror" (1975) with bits of Elvis and Roger Corman thrown in too - and this all happens in just half an hour! Lin Shaye has some fun as the mystic "Nurse Maleva" who tries to avert the corruption of SPL - but will she succeed? Who cares, it's dreadful - but he does bear a worrying resemblance to Michael J. Fox at the end and I rather liked it!
