Archaeologists working in Arizona find a werewolf skeleton. In this film, werewolves are part of American Indian mythology, which the head archaeologist, Noel, calls a [[wikipedia:Skin-walker|skin-walker]] or ''yee naaldlooshii''. And apparently werewolves take on habits such as "sleeping nose to anus" ("What? It's fun!").
Line 15 ⟶ 14:
Bizarrely similar to ''[[Track of the Moon Beast]]'' and ''[[It Lives by Night]]'', both of which were featured in [[Mystery Science Theater 3000]]'s tenth and final season.

{{tropelist}}
* [[Abhorrent Admirer]]: Yuri is a male version for Natalie.
* [[Badass Bystander]]: A random citizen manages to kick Werewolf Paul's ass. So much for the horror.
Line 30 ⟶ 29:
* [[Fake American]]: Nearly every cast member.
** Special mention goes to Natalie, whose first language is clearly not English

* [[For Science!]]: Why is Yuri making people into werewolves? Because that's the plot.
** He uses the term "modern, man-made wuhr-welf" constantly, like he's got a copyright on that term.
* [[Genius Bonus]]: "Basquiat is in danger!" The extra indeed does look like the famous graffiti artist.
* [[Hey, It's That Guy!]]: [[Soultaker|Joe Estevez]].
