The Werewolf of Washington1973
“Makes It Perfectly Clear.”
Directed by Milton Moses Ginsberg
The premise
After being unknowingly inflicted with the bite of a werewolf while on a visit to Europe, White House press secretary Jack Whittier begins to turn into a deadly beast by night, terrorizing Washington D.C. and presenting a very deadly threat to the President.
Horror Vault's take
A White House press secretary returns from Europe carrying more than just jet lag — a werewolf's curse has turned him into a nocturnal predator stalking the streets of Washington D.C. As the body count rises in the nation's capital, the afflicted aide struggles to contain a monster that no political spin can cover up. This 1973 creature feature doubles as sharp political satire, using the werewolf myth to skewer the power corridors of American government. The result is an oddball cult curio that blends genuine lycanthropic menace with biting Watergate-era commentary.
