The premise
Here’s the bit.
In this send-up of The Wolf Man, an American couple on a budget tour of Eastern Europe (Paul Sand and Carol Burnett) knock on the door of a gloomy Transylvanian castle after their car gets stuck. A severe housekeeper (Eydie Gormé) offers no phone and no mechanic, and a gypsy fortune teller (Vicki Lawrence) reads a werewolf's mark in the husband's palm and lists the ways to stop one, ending with a cream pie. Their genial host, Sir Larry Talmadge (Harvey Korman), insists such legends are nonsense until the couple's talk of the full moon and moonlighting sets off his transformation, and the night descends into wolfish mayhem settled with dessert.

Say it with us
Highly quotable.
One son is a werewolf. The other son is a lead singer in a rock group.
A stick, a stake, and a shtick.
It's just a flesh wound from my shoulder to my ankle.
