About The Boy Who Cried Werewolf
Little Richie Bridgestone goes to spend the weekend with his father at his secluded mountain cabin, and witnesses his father being attacked by 'a creature' that the boy recognizes as a werewolf. He tries to convince his mother and his therapist that his father is now a werewolf.
Directed by Nathan Juran, The Boy Who Cried Werewolf leans on a strong ensemble — Kerwin Mathews, Elaine Devry, Scott Sealey — to carry a story that balances spectacle with character.
The film landed with audiences for its craft and performances, and remains one of the most talked-about horror titles of 1973.
