An American Werewolf in Paris

Factual error: When Andy bungee jumps off the Eiffel Tower, he hits his head on the rebound. If he had rebounded back from where he was shown, it would have smashed his skull to pieces and killed him instantly.

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: The original script for this movie had Andy going to Paris after learning his Uncle had been attacked, there was no secret werewolf society but Claude would still be a werewolf and the main antagonist, there was no drug that cause an instant transformation into a werewolf; instead, there would be a specific plant that allowed Claude to change into a werewolf any time he wanted to and Serafine would have been the werewolf that attacked and bit Andy.

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?
