I think it's safe to say this film has been a favorite of mine since I was six or seven. My love of gore started way back when I was a little blonde, blue eyed pastor's daughter. A lot has changed in that time, the least of all being my haircolor. One thing will always remain the same. I love this movie. On some secret level, I feel actual pain during the transformation scene. I don't think any special effects before or since has made me actually hurt for a character more. When I think of movies my two little boys must see, this tops the list. It is scary, but has that great early 80s humor most horror movies had then. I miss the good old days.

This is one of those movies I've been meaning to see for a while but never really get around to.. Shame on me.
classic movie. I met the director John Landis once before at a comic book convention.
isnt there more then one of those movies " The American Werewolf in (BLANK) " ? Because I think I saw one of those but not based in London? Not sure, but I remember it was not as gory as I thought it would be. haha, but I do like this movie.
