Plot hole: When Andy turns into a werewolf, he kills both Amy and Detective Benbou. Later in the morgue, Amy tells him because of this that she is forced to become his "rotting sidekick." If this is completely true, then Detective Benbou should also be following Andy around but he isn't seen after Andy manages to escape from the morgue.
An American Werewolf in Paris (1997)
Directed by: Anthony Waller
Starring: Julie Delpy, Tom Everett Scott, Vince Vieluf, Phil Buckman
Revealing mistake: When Andy and Claude are fighting each other in the train, during several shots, you can see Claude wearing gray briefs.
Continuity mistake: Much of this movie was shot in Luxembourg, not in Paris. This is obvious on several occasions - the road signs are clearly not like the French standard. You even see a sign to »Trier (Trèves)«. In Paris, there would be no signs to this German town...and even if there was, these would say »Trèves«. The buses also have French registration plates but are from Luxembourg companies.
Trivia: Julie Delpy admitted that the only reason that she did this movie was because she needed to pay her rent.
Trivia: When this movie was released to DVD in Australia, the ending had Andy running to the hospital where Seraphine had just given birth to Andy's child. The baby opens its eyes and the eyes are yellow, indicating that the baby is a werewolf. Later DVD releases had the ending where Andy and Seraphine bungee jump off the Statue of Liberty.
Trivia: In a scene that was deleted from the movie, Claude reveals that the werewolf society had been around for centuries and that the werewolf who attacked David Kessler in "An American Werewolf In London" was a member.
Andy McDermott: Great. Come to Paris and check out les drains.
Claude: I love Americans. You all have a good taste.
Question: What did Claude say in French to Jacques when he choked him for allowing Serafine and Andy to go through the door?
Question: How did they get Andy to the hospital after he banged his head on the Eiffel Tower? It seems highly unlikely there were any elevators around.
Chosen answer: The Eiffel Tower has several elevators in use that they could have taken.
Question: How did Claude kill Dr. Pigot? When Serafine is attempting to revive him, he doesn't seem to have a mark on him.
Answer: Perhaps the good doc died of a heart attack? Brought on from the horror / terror of being chased and then attacked by a monster? Or some other similar type of affliction. Embolism? Aneurysm?
