Things are going great for famed photojournalist, Ted. He's got a great career, a beautiful wife, and fifteen sherpas to listen in on he and his wife having sex. The whole deal. That all ends when his camp is attacked by a Nepalese werewolf. Ted eventually kills it, but not before it murders everyone at the camp except for Ted, and leaves him infected with werewolfism.
He returns to the States, but has a hard time fitting in, due to him literally turning into a werewolf, EVERY. SINGLE. NIGHT. Yeah. It's like a full time job. He finally murders enough people in the woods right next to his Airstream trailer that he decides it might be time to reconnect with his family. And possibly murder them. What he didn't count on was the family's pet German Shepard, Thor.
Ted moves his Airstream into his sister's backyard and continues his nightly ritual of chaining himself to a tree and werewolfing, until one night he forgets to do it and kills one of the many late-night arborists working in the area. Thor finds the body and is now afraid for his family's lives. Thus begins a classic battle of dog vs. werewolf. So put on your best sweatpants, precariously position your giant werewolf book over your vials of wolf urine, and join Matt and Tristan for the best Universal monsters / dog story mashup since Benji meets Dracula. Bad Moon.
