Warning: Spoilers
The tragic story of a simple minded adolescent boy with a rare disease that turns him into a wolf at inappropriate times. Scott is small for his age and has suspect banter which makes him an easy target for bullies and practical jokers. While shaving one morning Scott suddenly turns into a wolf, a painful and humiliating ordeal which fills Scott with an inner steel and a taste for blood. A member of the school basketball team Scott is determined to be accepted as a wolf with or without his glasses on and tries to prove that wolves aren't just big dogs. Sadly for Scott, though more impressive physically and certainly hairier his suspect banter and high pitched teenage voice remain a constant source of anguish. Scott must decide whether to remain as a wolf, stronger, hairier but ultimately less human and therefore an animal or undergo extensive surgery returning him to an awkward teen with average basketball skills and poor eye sight. Scott's father Harold also suffers from the rare disease but has made his choice long ago choosing to stay in during the day and come out at night though always wearing a balaclava and boiler suit.
