High school teen Michael Landon terrorizes his fellow students with his uncontrollable temper, leading to frequent fights with friends and even his sympathetic girlfriend. He is sent to a psychiatrist who seizes the opportunity to test out his theory on hypnotic regression. Landon becomes a werewolf and is unable to control his emotions, killing the first pretty girl he sees. Other murders follow and the police, at first baffled, eventually hunt him down. One of the better AIP films of the late 50s with some interesting touches, such as an upside down point-of-view shot for the first glimpse of the werewolf.
