Teen Wolf 1 & 2

How to be a teen wolf twice
Here's a pairing of two rather unique movies on a dual-side DVD, the original Teen Wolf staring Michael J. Fox and its less-successful sequel, Teen Wolf Too with Jason Bateman. The first film deals with the struggles of Scott Howard, a high school student fed up with being average, until he discovers he's inherited a fantastic gift; moments of heightened emotional state transform him into The Wolf. The real problem is how he lets it affect his social life, his academic life and his athletic life . . . and what he has to do to overcome the problem.Teen Wolf Too is the lesser-known story of a cousin named Todd Howard trying to cope with the pressures of being a college freshman, tied in with an unexpected athletic responsibility (as a boxer) and the burden of living up to the events of the previous story. He thinks he didn't receive the capacity to turn into a wolf the way Scott did, and he's completely surprised to discover that The Wolf is a part of him. Not only does being the wolf help Todd to excel in the ring, but he gets stuck up and allows the same things to happen to himself that happened to Scott.When I first saw this DVD package, I didn't even know about Teen Wolf Too. When I watched Too, I did enjoy it a good deal. At the same time, I have to admit to knowing what prevented it from being more commercially successful. People had already seen much of that film's turns of events in the original (down to Jason Bateman's voice turning demonic in the registrar's office, something which happened with Fox). One key element that differs from the original film is that Todd Howard's biology professor is highly supportive of Todd, even when his performance plummets. Her secret is revealed to the dean near the end of the film - that The Wolf is also a part of her.Another difference is that, when the original was produced, the songs woven into the score were all composed by film scorer Miles Goodman and lyricist Douglas Brayfield (save the Beach Boys' "Surfin' USA"). Teen Wolf Too depended more heavily on non-original music than on its own score.The significance of these two films being packaged together lies largely in the show, Family Ties, in which Jason Bateman's older sister, Justine starred as one of Michael J. Fox' sisters. Jason was also a cast member of Little House on the Prairie at the close of Season 7 and during all Season 8; boss and star Michael Landon also starred in I was a Teenage Werewolf in 1957. (In addition, five years previous to the original Teen Wolf, Michael J Fox had debuted in the Disney film Midnight Madness with David Naughton, who reached worldwide acclaim in An American Werewolf in London during 1981.)

CLEAN & FUN MOVIES.
My adult son who has special needs especially enjoys the movie, "Teen Wolf" with Michael Fox. Because he is not gentle with DVDs, my son has owned multiple copies of the movie. I am pleased of its continued availability. Although not as popular, "Teen Wolf 2" with Jason Bateman is a plus.

Another great 1980s movie
Teen Wolf is a great choice and will watch again. I haven’t seen Teen Wolf 2 with Justin Bateman yet but I’m sure I’ll like it.

Teen Wolf: Awesome, Teen Wolf Too: Nasty crap
Poor Jason Bateman hadn't peaked in his talent when this movie was made. He was terrible, the movie was terrible, the story worse than terrible. The only redeeming factor was that Scott's dad was in the sequel, albeit for 5 minutes and his van was a different make. Michael J nailed the first one. The acting was superb, the story relatable to the 80s teen generation and even the music rocked. Plus, there's Pamela who's hot but a brat and then there's Nick who's 40 but still plays high school b-ball. Go figure.Still, I would buy this movie just for the first one. It's as good as I remember as a kid. If you're going to scratch one side of the disk, make sure it's the "Too" side.

Un clásico de los 80's
Una buena película con gran calidad de video, Teen Wolf es divertida; Michael J. Fox derrochaba carisma. En honor a la verdad, él y el resto del reparto salvan un guión que es demasiado simple. Teen Wolf Too es menos afortunada que la primera, la historia es repetitiva y lenta; sin embargo, Jason Bateman es quien saca adelante el pésimo trabajo de los escritores. El gran e inolvidable momento de la película es el número musical al ritmo del clásico "Do you love me" de los Countours.Desafortunadamente, ninguna de las dos producciones logró sobrevivir al paso de los años.

Season 1 & 2 Version française disponible
La version française est bien disponible pour les 2 saisons. À partir de la saison 3, il vous faudra vous procurer les jacquettes françaises. Disques en parfait état chez momox. Actuellement la série est disponible sur Prime Vidéo sans surcoût. J'espère qu'à l'avenir MGM et MediumRare feront de nouveaux pressages. Prime Vidéo est la plateforme des séries fantastique. J'espère dans un avenir proche, l'ajout de la série Grimm, qu'aucune plateforme ne possède. Et pour finir le format utiliser pour les dvd est le MPEG-2 ainsi que le NTSC .
