Werewolf1996

Horror Vault's take

Deep in the Arizona desert, an archaeological dig unearths something far more dangerous than ancient bones — a skeleton that carries a monstrous curse. When the sinister foreman Yuri begins exploiting the discovery for his own twisted experiments, an unsuspecting science writer finds himself drawn into a deadly web of lycanthropy and betrayal. The sun-baked Southwest setting gives this low-budget creature feature an unusual backdrop, blending monster-movie thrills with a mad-scientist undercurrent. Fans of late-night VHS-era horror will find plenty to enjoy in its unapologetic schlock appeal.
