An American Werewolf in London (1981)


An American Werewolf in London (1981)

Okay, how can you talk about 1981 and NOT discuss An American Werewolf in London - what is (arguably) the most successful and enjoyable werewolf film ever created this side of The Wolfman (1941). John Landis expertly combines scares, mode, comedy, music and practical effects for an amazing film. This film stands along side John Carpenter's The Thing as a pinacle of achievement for eighties horror. A must see.

Directed by John Landis. Starring David Naughton, Jenny Agutter, Griffin Dunne and John Woodvine.

Below is more of a Cable TV promotion than a theatrical trailer, but it successfully demonstrates what is great about this film.

So here it is ... An American Werewolf in London
