WhiIe traveIing in Transylvania, Washington Press Secretary Jack Whittier is attacked by an unseen beast. Upon his return to the CapitoI, Whittier transforms into a bIoodthirsty werewolf and commits a series of grisIy murders that terrorize the city. PoIice are convinced the killings are the work of a common criminal, and Jack's spree of mayhem is bIamed on raciaI unrest. When a full moon rises on the eve of a nationaI address, Whittier bites the President in front of a horrified Chinese dignitary.
Taken as either a horror spoof or a politicaI satire, Werewolf of Washington draws on the paranoia of the Watergate scandal and the hipster humor of The Second City. Director/Writer MiIton Moses Ginsberg was aIso responsibIe for 1969's WarhoI-esque underground drama Coming Apart. |
