Teen Wolf (1985)
Long before it became a critically acclaimed TV show on MTV, Teen Wolf was Michael J. Fox's first feature film after the release of Back to the Future. In this film, Fox also plays a high-schooler, here named Scott Howard. But instead of launching into the past to fix his parents' relationship, Fox plays a character who has to come to terms with his family's unusual pedigree of producing werewolves that sometimes skips a generation. During a high-school basketball game, Scott's true nature is revealed to all, though not after he discovers that he's got some new hoops skills that eventually propel his team to the state championship game.
