Full Moon High is a 1981 horror comedy film written and directed by Larry Cohen. It involves a high school werewolf that tries to keep his secret. He also ignores his girlfriend's sexual advances because it's "his time of the month".
A teenager goes on a trip to Transylvania with his father and gets bitten by a werewolf. Made ageless, he attempts to put his life back together a couple of decades later by enrolling in high school. The basic premise of the movie is that he tries to keep his secret from the school and his girlfriend with comedic results. The movie was filmed partially at John Burroughs Senior High School in the city of Burbank, California in the Summer of 1979. A portion of this movie was also filmed on location in Lyndhurst, New Jersey. On the football field in Bergen County Park at the foot of Valley Brook Ave. and River Road. The stands were filled with everyone from the town and the Varsity football team of that year were also used.
