Oh, man, I haven't seen it in several years.

It's got its scary moments.

I've forgotten - is the uncle Nick Nolte or Gary Busey?

Garey Busey.
I like it.
Its not the best Stephen King I've ever seen but I find it enjoyable. I watch it every few years.

Gary Busey, I should have known.

Busey went to school here in Oklahoma and began his career on a local hit TV show, "Dr. Mazeppa Pompazoidy's Uncanny Film Festival and Camp Meeting."

Have you seen the graphic novel that Silver Bullet is based on, "Cycle of the Werewolf"?

This book really rocks and may give you nightmares.

The book is very good indeed, the film is average but worth renting, or buying if it is cheap.

I didn't think was scary and I scare pretty easily. I only watched it because Megan Follows from Anne of Green Gables is in it.

I saw it once awhile back, before I knew who Corey Haim was. I don't remember it being scary--In fact, I remember the werewolf being quite funny-looking. But, as they said before, it was still good.

Skatefan-- Fun fact: Corey Haim and Megan Follows both guest-starred on the show Big Wolf on Campus as some point and time. Megan Follows' episode was quite funny, although I liked the one with Corey Haim better. Maybe there were too many old person jokes in Follows' episode.

Rhodes- I know, but I'm gonna try and watch it anyway. [Big Grin] I only saw it once, and I can't remember much. I think the werewolf gets shot in the eye with a . . . rocket of some sort? I had no idea Gary Busey was in it, or Megan Follows--But then again, they're both in everything, aren't they?

Skate-- It's actually 1999, but I absolutely LOVE the show--Have all but about half of an episode on tape.

If you want to look at an episode description and pictures from Megan Follows' or Corey Haim's episodes, you can go here:

Http://www.bigwolfoncampus.org

They're under "episodes." Megan Follows' episode is called "Interview With a Werewolf" and Corey Haim's episode is called "Blame it on the Haim."

Follows' episode is in season one, and Haim's is in the second season. Corey Feldman guest-stars in season three in the episode "What's the Story, Mourning Corey?"

[Big Grin] I'm such a nerd.

oh yeah....my sisters kids used to watch that show! (And I used to babysit them si watched it too). The lead guy in that,...the werewolf....looked like my best friends brother who I had a crush on as a kid so I loved him...and Merkin reminded me of my best friend (who to this day is a total Merkin). Why dont they show that show anymore? It was good!

mamamia- Brandon Quinn played the werewolf guy. And the Goth sidekick guy? His name was Merton. [Wink] But glad to know that there's a fellow fan here! Disney took over Foxfamily, it became ABCFamily, and the show ended after 65 episodes, as every show on Disney, no matter how good or bad, will only run three seasons.

By the way, I caught Silver Bullet last night. I didn't remember almost all of it, but I liked it. It was pretty funny, especially considering the werewolf used a bat. I mean, he had claws and teeth, but no, he had to use the bat. And I loved the line: "What, are you gonna make lemonade in your pants?" and the scene where the angry mob is like, "It's under the fog!"
