Our favourite pie-eating lycanthrope is back, and this time he's got a different origins story. The explanation this time round is that Paul got himself bitten while leading some expedition into the Himalayas, and that a Yeti bit him (?). A doctor at the local university he works at swears she can cure him, but before she can Paul finds out his wife is cheating, gets all hairy, kills the lover and his wife and then stupidly electrocutes himself to death.
Only he's not really dead of course. The lady doctor reveals that she's even more mental than a Greggs-addicted werewolf, with her human/plant people in the basement of her mad doctor castle, and the crazy people chained up, and the mind control experiments, and the weird guy in the mask. Not to mention the guy who pretends to be a suit of armour, the hippies who are partying everywhere, and the hilariously dubbed female sidekicks.
Paul's as confused by all this as the audience, so luckily he manages to decimate most of the cast before the end of the film. I'm still not too sure what that doctor's plan was, but Paul basically hooks up with her assistant while the assistant's boyfriend, who is a journalist, does a bit of outside investigating to break up all the insanity involved Paul Naschy.
All the above is proof that this is yet another highly enjoyable Spanish Werewolf film, with plenty of hilarity to keep you going. My favourite bit was when the hippies try and subdue Paul, and he goes mental with an axe and murders about four of them. Slight overreaction there, Paul. There's also a werewolf versus werewolf battle at the end for good measure, set to the sound of the Tardis for bizarre reasons.
I couldn't help but wonder why Naschy always attacks people, bites out their necks, and wanders off. It's like he momentarily thinks he's a vampire, goes for the jugular, gets a mouthful of blood, thinks to himself 'Oh, that's right - I'm a werewolf', then wanders off in a confused state. And don't forget about that Yeti - I look forward to seeing Paul tackle him in The Werewolf and The Yeti!
Oh - nearly forgot the bit where Paul invades someone's home, sets a guy's legs on fire, then spends most of his time trashing the kitchen!
