This just popped up at On Demand - I had never even HEARD of this one before.

Basically - a sweet little old lady ill-advisedly rents out a room in her house to a werewolf, who turns her into a flesh-eater as well. When her son, a newscaster, finds out, he manages to kill the werewolf, but is left with the problem of his mother, who still craves fresh human flesh. The imdb.com page lists it as a comedy-horror but there really wasn't any comedy - it was pretty dead serious, although your mileage may vary, it didn't really seem to be trying to be funny no matter how inherently ridiculous a little old lady werewolf might be.

It's not exactly a "good" movie. The special effects look like they had a budget of about $5, although the gore and stunts were surprisingly well-done. It's certainly different. Most movies tend to focus on a young man as the werewolf, it's fairly rare to see a movie asking what sort of effect becoming a monster would have on a family, and you almost never see an elderly lycanthrope.
