Reminds me of the movie, “Silver Bullet”, from a short story by Steven King.
It has a friendly neighborhood werewolf who suddenly targets a disabled kid with a souped up wheelchair. The kid could go 20-30 mph in it, and outruns the werewolf in the movie a couple of times.
It stars Gary Busey and Corey Haim. There’s quality acting right there….oh not right there, the make-up guy was Carlo Rambaldi – for 1985 some of the effects were awesome ane he was really good in his later movies. BUT Steven King throttled back the werewolf effects, and limited visual time with it – so much so that the original Director quit.
