I Was a Teenage Werebear is a quirky blend of comedy and horror that leans heavily into camp. It offers a unique take on the werewolf genre with a strong LGBTQ theme, exploring youth and identity in a way that's both playful and earnest. The practical effects are charmingly low-budget, pulling you into a more nostalgic vibe. Performances are over-the-top but fit the tone perfectly, especially the lead's transformation journey. The musical elements and the vibrant, almost gaudy visuals give it a distinct flavor that’s refreshing in the often formulaic horror landscape. Definitely not your standard werewolf tale, and the 60's vibe adds a nice touch.
