Summary: Pretty good horror movie
Review: I personally think this film is a bit overated as far a excellent tranformation scenes and humour are concerned. The Howling will always be number one when it comes to those things. Just the same, this is still a fairly enjoyable and well-made movie that is scary and worth repeated viewings.

Summary: ...Hauntingly funny
Review: Contrary to what some reviewers may tell you, this is an excellent piece of movie making. I think only 'Pulp Fiction' has been so funny, shocking, and intense all at the same time ever sinse. It stands up well to repeated veiwings, so its a far better buy than some of the current mainstream releases.

Summary: The unresisting pressure of being a werewolf
Review: If you saw An American Werewolf in Paris, I am sure you didn't like it at all. Because it was a very bad version of An American Werewolf in London which is one of my childhood favourites. I always claim that old movies are more succesful than today's computer supported releases. This movie is a very good example to this. There are hundreds of werewolf movies but the only great transformation scene is in this movie which lasts at least five minutes. And then finally you really see a creature that resembles a wolf rather than a guy wearing a mask and fur. But my favouite scenes are the ones in which the disgusting faced victoms gives him advices for the ways of suicide. Maybe it's the joke of author or director, but you really enjoy it.

Summary: billiant mixture of horror pathos and comedy.
Review: I have actually spent days searching for "The slaughtered lamb" in Yorkshire and walked the path of the werewolf rampage in Piccadlly. Its the kind of movie that generates cult following. A subtle, mix of Horror, at its most explicit and frightening, pythonesque comedy, that is side splitting, and pathos that brings tears to the eyes. In a word brilliant.

Summary: classic mix of humor and horror
Review: An American Werewolf in London is a film that combines dry wit and humor with true horror movie supense and gore (with ground breaking special effects). Highly recommended as a monster movie that doesn't take itself too seriously.

Summary: My Favorite Horror Movie
Review: Someone needs a geography lesson: Northern England and Welsh Moors? There are no Moors in Wales. Have you watched the movie? Naughton and Dunne, werewolves? Dunne isn't a werewolf in the movie, he's a rotting corpse. Anyway, for anyone considering this video I must say that this is one of the most inteligent horror movies of all time. A perfect blend of horror, humor and romance keep the viewer engaged throughout. Not to mention the state of the art makeup and special effects that still hold their own in this age of digital imaging.

Summary: Morbidly delightful.
Review: There's this scene in An American Werewolf in London where our protagonist is having a conversation with the decomposed corpse of his best friend while watching a pornographic movie in an adult theater. There are others in the screenroom that eventually reveal themselves to be victims of our tragic werewolf. Why are they here? To convince the poor man to commit suicide. "You gotta kill yourself, man. Tonight's another full moon." He then proceeds to change into the beast and terrorizes the movie theater.I bring this one scene up because it had a profound effect on me when I first saw this at eight years old (I know, I know...an eight year old shouldn't have been watching this). I had never scene anything as twisted before and I've rarely seen anything like it since. That's the most important thing about this film. It has never been successfully imitated. Two American best friends are backpacking through England when one night on an lonely road out in the old country, they're attacked by a vicious creature. One man dies, the other receives near-fatal injuries. After a brief stay in the hospital, the protagonist is taken in by his lovestruck sympathetis nurse. The visions of his deceased best-friend begin to haunt him delivering a terrifying prophecy: On the night of the first full moon, you'll become the creature that attaked you. ______________________________________________________ I recently saw what I consider to be a disaster of a movie...Van Helsing. I bring this up because of the interesting werewolf transformation in the film. The werewolf would convulse and then proceed to rip his flesh from his body revealing the monster underneath. All of this was done photorealistically as CGI. But with all the realsim, it still doesn't have the impact of the first werewolf transformation in An American Werewolf in London. But why? Are we desensitized as movie-goers? Personally, I think it comes down to style. Modern filmakers are too obsessed with how real their effects look that they've become lazy convinced that the realistic CGI will be enough to satisfy the audience. They've forgotten how easy it is to creep someone out. Modern special effects should inhance the atmosphere set by a monster...not replace it.
