Full Moon High

VHS, PG, 93 minutes, MGM

The problems of a typical high-school teenager take on monstrous proportions in this comical, free-spirited send-up of horror movies from legendary cult-film creator Larry Cohen ("It's Alive", "Q"). The most important thing to quarterback Tony Walker (Adam Arkin, "Chicago Hope") is to win the big game against archrival Simpson High. But his plans soon change when his ultra right-wing Dad (TV-icon Ed McMahon, "The Tonight Show") drags him along on a spying mission for the CIA. In Romania, Tony is bitten by a werewolf -- and that's when things really start to get hairy! Now, whenever there's a full moon, he transforms into a growling, snapping beast who hungrily chases down beautiful girls. Cursed to live forever as a teenager with uncontrollable urges, Tony realizes he must find a way to end this cycle of animalistic excess -- before he bites off more than he can chew! With nonstop gags, a dynamite ensemble of eccentric characters and hilarious comedic turns by McMahon and Adam Arkin's real-life father, Alan Arkin ("Grosse Pointe Blank"), Full Moon High is an outrageous and irreverent satire that will make you howl with laughter. 1980, Digital Video Transfer, Closed Captioned By NC.
