American students David Kessler and Jack Goodman (David Naughton and Griffin Dunne) are backpacking in the English countryside when they are attacked by a werewolf.

During one of David's ensuing nightmares, he is visited by Jack and warned that unless he commits suicide, he will turn into a werewolf during the next full moon. David ignores Jack's advice, and, when David is released from the hospital, he moves in with his nurse, Alex Price (Jenny Agutter). They begin a love affair, and now it is only a short time before the next full moon. Will David's nightmares prove to be true? Wry humor interwoven with horror.
