An American Werewolf in Paris (1997) is a loose sequel to the cult classic An American Werewolf in London (1981), blending horror, comedy, and romance with a late-'90s sensibility. The film follows Andy (Tom Everett Scott), an adventurous American who, while traveling in Paris with friends, falls for a mysterious woman named Serafine (Julie Delpy)—only to discover she is part of a dangerous world of werewolves. Unlike its predecessor, which balanced dark humor and practical effects, this sequel leans heavily on CGI, which was criticized for its dated and unconvincing transformation sequences. Despite its flaws, the film delivers fast-paced action, eerie Parisian settings, and a mix of supernatural thrills with youthful, rebellious energy.

The soundtrack of An American Werewolf in Paris is a quintessential '90s alternative rock compilation, featuring artists like Bush, Smash Mouth, and The Refreshments. It leans into the era’s grunge and post-grunge vibes, creating a soundscape that complements the film’s youthful and edgy tone. Standout tracks include Bush’s "Mouth" (remixed by The Stingray), which became synonymous with the film's promotional material. The mix of punk, alt-rock, and electronic elements gives the soundtrack an energetic, rebellious feel, making it a time capsule of late-'90s rock culture while reinforcing the movie’s fast-paced, darkly comedic atmosphere.
