Does anyone have a copy of this 1980 short? Cry Wolf was only 30 minutes, a spoof played dead straight starred Paul Maxwell. It was a support film to Airplane I found.

I have only ever seen it on ITV here in UK one, but never got another outing.

I thought I had a recording, but unable to find it now.

Sadly I don't have a copy, but do remember seeing it at the cinema. The main joke that I remember was the old lady that kept getting mugged by the werewolf for he dog food cans. I couldn't find it on IMDb and was beginning to think I'd invented it. Perhaps being B&W meant it wasn't repeated.

Set on The Isle Of Dogs in London. It does take some finding. It took me quite a while. web page

Interesting the production company Picture Partnership Productions also made Poirot.

Now it would have made a great super 8 release.
