Films: The Boy Who Cried Werewolf (1973)
Alias: None
Type: Mystical
Location: Forest/Civilized area
Height/Weight: That of an average human.
Affiliation: Neutral
Summary: We all know the story. A boy keeps lying about a wolf, and no one cares by the time a real one shows up. But now the boy's not some bratty trickster, and the wolf...well, it's a bit more human and personally linked to the protagonist.
History: Robert Bridgestone was just trying to hang out with his son Richie. Then out of nowhere a werewolf shows up and bites him. Now he's among the hairy, and only poor ignored Richie knows. Not even Robert is aware of his condition, and Richie looks like a fool in front of everybody. That is, except for the victims of the beast.
Notable Kills: Nothing special.
Final Fate: Eventually the police try and gun Robert down as he rampages across a hippie cult, but his death comes at the hands of a broken cross he trips onto. However, Richie was bitten earlier, so the legacy can survive.
Powers/Abilities: Standard werewolf abilities.
Weakness: The sun, silver bullets, heart-shots, wolfsbane.
Scariness Factor: 3-Not the most unoriginal werewolf by any means, but I think we can do better. He looks more like an angry bearded collie most of the time.
Trivia: -Kerwin Matthews plays Robert, in his last theatrical role. If you ever wondered how Sinbad would look as a werewolf, here's your answer right here.
-The original werewolf in the film was played by Paul Baxley, a frequent stunt double of William Shatner.
