Storyline
The daughter of the werewolf from AWIL is alive and living in Paris where her mother (from the first film) and stepfather are trying to overcome her lycanthropic disease. A trio of American tourists on a thrill seeking trip around Europe manage to stop her from plunging to her death from the top of the Eiffel tower and are embroiled in a horrific but often hilarious plot involving a secret society of werewolves based in the city and a drug which allows werewolves to change at any time... This time there's no need for a full moon... Written by Ben Jewitt <moribund.boy@mcmail.com>

Trivia
Tom Everett Scott had never been to Europe, stating: "I hadn't left the country. So it was a really big, brand new experience for me, and I got to work with all these great special effects people and we got to climb all over the Eiffel Tower at night. They would shut it down from midnight to 6 a.m. for our production. I don't know how many people get the opportunity to do that but that was a real thrill. We got to run around Paris in the middle of the night, and as a 26-year-old guy who had never been to Europe, I was just fascinated and felt very fortunate." See more »Goofs
When Andy is fighting Claude on the subway train, Claude is supposed to be naked after transforming back to human form again, but in several shots during the fight you can see that he is wearing pants. See more »Quotes

I enjoyed this movie. Its not in the same league as the Original (An American Werewolf in London), but fun all the same. I think a lot of the reviewers on here have gave it a bad write-up, because they were probably comparing it to the original too much.
6 out of 10 ... It's worth watching.
