The Boy Who Cried Werewolf | comment |
A live-action movie by Nickelodeon, first aired on October 23rd, 2010, starring Victoria Justice as Jordan Sands.The story begins with the Sands family, buried under bills and debt, receiving unusual news: their uncle-in-law, Dragomir Vucovic, has passed away, and left his entire castle to his late grandniece's family. Believing that selling the mansion could prove to be a remedy for their economic problems, Jordan, Hunter and their father, David, make the voyage.There to greet them is Madame Varcolac (Brooke Shields), caretaker of the castle and close friend of the late Dragomir. The evening of their arrival, she gives them one rule: stay inside your room at night, and lock the door.That doesn't really happen. Once their Internet fails, Jordan and Hunter search the house for its wireless router, eventually discovering it inside a hidden laboratory. While Hunter works with the 'net, Jordan examines the many gruesome objects around the room, eventually taking a curiously-placed vial of blood marked as, “L.B. 217.�When Hunter pulls a prank on her, and she drops the tube, Madame V comes searching. In her hurry to hide from the creepy caretaker, Jordan accidentally steps on the glass shards, stabbing her foot and injecting herself with the foreign blood.Too bad for her that blood just so happens to be from a werewolf.The remainder of the story revolves around Jordan, Hunter and Madame Varcolac attempting to cure her before the next full moon, at which point it becomes impossible to undo. Along the way, David begins dating real estate agent Paulina, vampires who want the mansion attack, and the history of Dragomir Vucovic is explored.Shares its title with, but is unrelated to, a 1973 film. | |

The Boy Who Cried Werewolf / int_130436b9 | comment |
Annoying Younger Sibling: Hunter, with a Freudian Excuse; he used to play pranks with his mom, so continues this after she dies as a way of feeling close with her. It annoys his big sister Jordan and everyone else who gets it. He's also been suspended multiple times for pranks while at school. | |

Misplaced Wildlife: Some of the taxidermied animals in the mansion include pronghorn and American mountain goats. A bit more justifiable than most examples, but still a bit off to see those animals instead of Eurasian ones | |

Manic Pixie Dream Girl: Paulina's entire personality toward David is as a plucky, energetic, quirky women opening David's heart again after his wife's death. Of course, it's all an act to mask her vampirism, and make David more comfortable selling the mansion to her. Subverted with Goran, the Romanian boy who falls in love with Jordan. After she becomes a version of this due to The Mind Is a Plaything of the Body, he becomes rather freaked out by her. | |

Missing Mom: Jordan and Hunter's mother died before the events of the film. It overshadows them, along with their dad, as they're all still mourning her (along with being the motive for Hunter's pranks, since they did these together). Her family relations also spur the plot, since they inherit a castle in Romania from her Romanian great-uncle. | |

Werewolves Are Dogs | |
The Boy Who Cried Werewolf / int_8104c755 | comment |
Werewolves Are Dogs: Played with. When cynical nerd Jordan Sands becomes infected with werewolf blood, during the day she becomes playful and excitable, has a keen sense of smell, plays with other dogs, and enjoys being outside (where her allergies stopped her from enjoying it before). But when fully transformed at night, she is much more vicious and wolflike. In addition, natural-born werewolves like her brother and great-uncle are later revealed to be much more in control of their minds in both forms, averting the trope. | |

For some strange reason, the townspeople are not scared of them. Guardians or not, you would think some people would be cringing in terror (though considering the werewolves saved the world from vampires in the past, they could just know better). | |

Irony: Jordan starts out as a strict vegetarian, annoying her little brother Hunter since she cooks for him and her dad but never serves meat. In Romania, she's attracted to Goran, a butcher (but doesn't care, though Hunter lampshades the fact) then becomes a werewolf (a carnivore) craving (and eating) meat as a result. | |

Shout-Out | |
The Boy Who Cried Werewolf / int_c75df49a | comment |
Shout-Out: The video game series that Hunter is a fan of is apparently a composite Expy of Diablo and Werewolf: The Apocalypse. The Arc Words "The strength of the wolf is the pack", come from a line of a poem in The Jungle Book. Rudyard Kipling is also name-dropped in the explanation of the context. To Britney Spears, remarkably. Madame Varcolac's a fan, judging by her ring-tone. Werewolves howling each time Madame Varcolac's name is mentioned is an obvious reference to Young Frankenstein. | |

The Boy Who Cried Werewolf / int_c7c4dae7 | comment |
Possession Implies Mastery: Subverted for Jordan, but played straight with Hunter. This could be explained with his being a natural werewolf, while she became one due to a blood infusion. He's able to use his werewolf abilities immediately, while she learns slowly. | |

Woman Were-Woes: Downplayed. After Jordan becomes a werewolf, she gains a lot of confidence, athletic ability, and even the ability to see without her glasses. However, she laments that no boy will want a snarling, hairy werewolf for a girlfriend. Her brother, Hunter, insists that he knows several guys who would want to date her. | |

For Halloween, I Am Going as Myself: Downplayed. Jordan seems to have no difficulty heading out into the crowded streets in werewolf form, as everyone else is already costumed up. She does get a few weird looks when she starts howling, but nobody bothers her otherwise. | |

As Long as It Sounds Foreign: Despite this being set in Romania, most of the names stem from neighboring Slavic languages, or even German. Wolfsberg, a castle in Romania with a German name. Dragomir is a Romanian male first name, but his last name Vukovic is Serbian. Goran is a male first name common in South Slavic countries like Bulgaria, Croatia, Serbia etc. Igor Van Helman Stanisvlasky, a Romanian with a Russian, Dutch, North-German, Polish name. | |

Our Werewolves Are Different | |
The Boy Who Cried Werewolf / int_f8b3fa5d | comment |
Our Werewolves Are Different: For one, the werewolves are the good guys in the film, as explained by Madame Varcolac during the scene where she details the history between vampires and werewolves. For some strange reason, the townspeople are not scared of them. Guardians or not, you would think some people would be cringing in terror (though considering the werewolves saved the world from vampires in the past, they could just know better). People also can become werewolves through three different methods: inheriting the condition from a relative, being bitten by one, or being infected with one's blood. Overall, they seem pretty standard to modern depictions otherwise, transforming under the full moon and having a weakness to silver. Along with that, they appear to have a Healing Factor, since Jordan's allergies and poor eyesight are cured upon becoming one. | |
