SYNOPSIS: The brother of the coffined werewolf from the first Howling movie is told by Stefan, an occultist, that (gasp!) his sister is a werewolf! He and his journalist friend don't believe it until they are attacked by werewolves and witness the sister exhumed and transform before their eyes. With the sister safely locked back in her crypt, Stefan insists they all go to Transylvania to confront Stirba, the leader of all the werewolves and (gasp!) Stefan's sister! Jenny and Ben hook up in Transylvania and the rest of the movie is a weird chase through the Transylvanian village streets and countryside until the final confrontation between Stefan and Stirba.

Smithee Award Nominations

Most Ludicrous Premise
Titanium and Man Evolving into Beasts The super-werewolves are immune to silver. So you need titanium knitting needles. Stirba was born 10 millennia ago. All werewolves will reveal themselves. Evolution is reversed. What??	Sorry, this clip has not yet been made available!

Oblivious
Werewolf Car Accident "Dis wooman vas heet by a kar! Ve must git her to a dooktur qvickly." Could it be a trap? Stefan knows it is. The other two? "Where the hell did everybody go?"	Sorry, this clip has not yet been made available!

Worst Special Effect
The Final FX Battle The ultimate showdown between Stefan and Stirba (his sister, remember). She seems to be trying to use her special FX to seduce him... But in the end, he stabs her in the name of God. Bad FX spill out and destroy everything.	Sorry, this clip has not yet been made available!

Acting Appropriately Stupid
Let's Follow the Mysterious Dwarf Our heroes step outside into a village they know is overrun by werewolves. A mysterious dwarf beckons. "Should we follow him?" "Why not?" It must be the post-nookie afterglow.	Sorry, this clip has not yet been made available!

"Let's Up The Rating To 'R'"
Boobiest Ending The end credits features the crappy rock band singing the signature song, and Sybil Danning's bursting free of her bodice over and over and over again, baring it all in time to the music, interspersed with scenes from the film.	Sorry, this clip has not yet been made available!

Directors

Director	Claim to Fame
Philippe Mora	Directed The Howlings II and III, as well as other such classics as Pterodactyl Woman from Beverly Hills, The Mystery of the Reclining Nude, and Dracula Nazi Hunter: How I Learned to Love Christopher Lee and Drink Atomic Bombs.

Cast

Actor	Character	Claim to Fame
Christopher Lee	Stefan	It's hard to find a more iconinc Crown Prince of the Horror/Fantasy/Sci-Fi genre. Sir Christopher played Dracula a lot. He was Scaramanga in the James Bond films. Known for his role as Saruman in The Lord of the Rings movies and Count Dooku in the Star Wars franchise.
Annie McEnroe	Jenny	Tomboyish; played Jane Butterfield in Beetlejuice.
Reb Brown	Ben	Perennial character actor in fantasy movies and on TV. "Starred" in Space Mutiny (Dave Ryder), as the titular Yor, the Hunter from the Future, and 1979's flop version of Captain America. Among many other Smithee-worthy trash.
Marsha A. Hunt	Mariana	Attractive African-Brit who has no trouble baring it all, teeth or...otherwise.
Sybil Danning	Stirba	Gorgeous and famous blonde actress with perhaps a bit of a lapse in judging scripts. She loves the cheesy fantasy and sci-fi, especially werewolves. Was in Halloween (2007 version), Battle Beyond the Stars, Amazon Women on the Moon (as Queen Lara), Warrior Queen, Hercules as Adriana. And many other Smithee-level schlock.
Judd Omen	Vlad	Many small parts in 80s action shows, and a few small parts in cheesy movies.
Ferdy Mayne	Erle	The Leader in Conan the Destroyer, "God" in Night Train to Terror, and Count Dracula on "Frankenstein's Aunt."
Jirí Krytinár	Vasile	A dwarf from Czechoslovakia who made it reasonably big. Was in Amadeus and played David Golias on "Hospada." They were going to hide him in the background in Howling II, but I'm glad they gave him a bigger role. I guess the production company refused to cache a small Czech.
