One slight problem MTV (who is bringing Teen Wolf back to life), the campiness is what the very foundation of Teen Wolf!!! That's like saying we're going to make Jurassic Park minus the Dinosaurs. We love the idea of more horror but save it for something not called Teen Wolf!...

The Den of Geek had the pleasure to catch up with new Wolfy director Russell Mulcahy (Highlander, Resident Evil: Extinction) to chat about what exactly will make this different then the original. Obviously minus the star Michael J. Fox who absolutely made the original film.

The director with the daunting task had this to say, "the new MTV Teen Wolf takes out a totally different slant, taking more of the slant of The Lost Boys, so to speak. It still has humor, but it's basically got horror and humor. The humor is in the characters and the real situations and the teenagers, it's very real and not played for any obvious laughs - they come from the situation. So there is definitely humor and horror, we really, really wanted to go for that and also the reality. Also it's obviously pumped up with not only a good scary score, but it's also pumped up with great music."

The you have it. A totally different slant. Well that makes perfect sense because the first Teen Wolf did so poorly that a new direction is warranted. Are we way off base here or does this just seem like a train wreck waiting to happen?
