Lon Chaney's hokey horror movie werewolf at least had the good sense to slobber and grimace during the requisite transforma tion from man to beast. I his lilm skimps on the physical change, presenting Bateman as pink- cheeked student one moment and the wolf the next with barely a hairy transition. Another sort of transformation is far more horri ble to see, that of film legend to unfunny sitcom. Once Bateman discovers nis talent for turning into a wolf, he wears his hair suit often. The oth er students are only momentarily surprised, and soon he a school hero.
