The charm that young Jason Bateman exhibited on television’s The Hogan Family is absent here, stifled by a painfully insipid script and direct-to-video production values. I can’t think of another movie sequel that so closely mimics its predecessor. The only differences between the two movies are the lead actor and the sport they play. The film even returns several inconsequential supporting characters, whether they’re played by the same actor or not. It’s odd and frustrating to watch a movie where the filmmakers were clearly terrified of straying from a mediocre formula. It makes Teen Wolf Too worse than a bad movie — it’s punishment. With Kim Darby and John Astin.
