Let's get this over with... Mario Van Peebles is Max, a cop. One day, in the cliched "2 days 'til retirement" schtick, Max's partner Jim is shot down on duty. While in the hospital, Jim gets pumped with drugs, heals quick, goes back on duty as some supercop, then blows his own brains out. Afterwards, Max gets recruited by the same group that fucked up Jim, and he becomes a freak. See, it seems that the group shoots up on werewolf brain juice and become super freaks (damn you Rick James), using their powers to fight crime! But, the leader (some guy named A. Garou) goes werewolf on the group, killing them all except Max, who must battle Garou with his wits (and a submachine gun). But, the "full eclipse" protects Garou from Max's weapons, rendering him invincible!... until the eclipse is over, then Max injects silver nitrate and morphine into Fido's bloodstream, which kills him... but not before he can give Max his power so he can carry on the fight against evil... with his girlfriend (how thoughtful). Thanx to this movie, I've lost all respect for Isis, goddess of the moon (with perky breasts and hair that smells like Trix!). I'd still "do" her though (if Osiris ever goes out of town).
Sequels: None
