The Boy Who Cried Werewolf is a 1973 Technicolor horror film directed by Nathan H. Juran.[1] The film stars Kerwin Mathews in the final film he and Juran made after their earlier work, which included The 7th Voyage of Sinbad.[2] In this thriller, a boy visits his father in a secluded cabin; the father is attacked by a werewolf and then becomes one himself. The boy constantly tries to tell others, but no one will believe him.[3]

Juran came out of retirement to make the film as a favour to producer Aaron Rosenberg.[4]
