She-wolf of London (aka Love and Curses)

[Fausto]

Randi Wallace has a problem. She went to London to study under famed Mythology professor Ian Matheson, a supposed expert in his field (and who is convinced that the supernatural does not exist). Teacher and student quickly hit it off, and Matheson even invites her to stay at his parents's bed and breakfast, where she was quickly adopted as a member of the quirky family. Nothing wrong, right? Unfortunately, no one bothered to warn her about staying on the moors past nightfall (those idiotic Americans) and you can pretty much figure out what happened as a result: She is bitten by something large and furry, and has become the victim of a werewolf curse.

Naturally, the curse tends to make Randi rather 'b***hy' around a certain time of the month (not for the usual reasons), and, without restraint, will result in the slaughter and mutilation of anything within her grasp. With Matheson's help, she must discover a way to remove the curse before it causes any more damage. The professor places an ad in a newspaper, offering help to those dealing with occult experiences, in the hope that it might lead to a cure for Lycanthropy. Soon weird cases from all over England start to pop up, and the pair have more ghosts, witches, vampires and demons on their plates than they can deal with.

Popular for its time, the series provided a lighter and more diverse look at the supernatural than many of the other primetime horror tv shows (Freddy's Nightmares, Friday the 13th: the series, War of the worlds: the series). Though the corny humor and convenient plot twists can get tiresome, there's enough b-grade entertainment value to go around. If you can find a copy of the series (as of yet, nothing official has been released on dvd), I'd certainly recommend picking it up.
