Here is what people are saying about the An American Werewolf in London
4 Star Rating  "One of the "Modern" classic werewolf flicks"2009-10-10
- Reviewed By User: A1GWA72W9ZBBT1
By expertly blending humour with gore and suspense, Director John Landis created a unique and instant horror classic with some novel touches of his own. I say this is a "modern" classic because I want to distinguish this from the werewolf movies of the 40s, 50s and 60s, which are referenced throughout. This and The Howling, could be considered part of the "modern" era of werewolf films.

The story begins with two American backpackers somewhat lost in rural England who, looking for shelter and something to eat, stop by a strange pub. Unfortunately for them, the locals are too cynical to warn them about a local legend that involves (you guessed it) a werewolf. From there things get weirder for the remaining backpacker, David, as he wakes up in hospital and is forced to confront the reality of what happened that night on the moors.

I loved how self-aware the characters in this movie were. From the rural English folk, who didn't think the Americans would believe their legend, to David who continually has to check himself as he is visited by his dead friend, Jack. We see him in gradual states of decomposition as he warns David about his responsibility and tells him that, since he was killed by a werewolf, he must walk the earth as one of the "undead" until the curse is lifted.

On top of that, there's a killer soundtrack with songs like Van Morrison's "Moondance" and CCR's "Bad Moon Rising" punctuating key points in the film.

Even though the creature itself is laughably fake by today's standards, I can't help but say I prefer it to the (even more fake) CG nonsense we see by the bucketload today.
The transformation scene, however, has stood the test of time and, in my opinion, still looks excellent. Landis wanted it to happen in harsh lighting with no cutaways and I think the effort paid off because we see the entire transformation in detail. It's so much more visceral and disturbing than what we get today.

Landis has said that he didn't want this to be considered a comedy ("It's a horror film", he says in the interview on the disc). While that may be true, I think the legacy of this movie will lie in its wicked sense of humour, something that we'll continue laughing at even after the special effects start to look old and contrived.
 
5 Star Rating  "Classic Movie, but please someone tell us what are the extra features on the Special Edition not the Blu-ray"2009-10-03
- Reviewed By User: A3U57CGTEDY3UZ
This is absolutely one of the classic horror movies in history of film, but I want to know exactly what are the extra features on the Special edition DVD and not the Blu-ray, because all Reviews are focusing on the Blu-ray edition. Hope someone could help me and thank you.
 
5 Star Rating  "Actually about the Full Moon Edition BD of 2009..."2009-10-02
- Reviewed By kile25
With all due respect to some of the other reviewers, they are obviously not writing about the Full Moon Edition BD, which was issued in 2009. I'm writing about this specific BD version.

I also own the HD-DVD version and it is quite good. In fact, several of the extras that are on this BD issue were also on the HD-DVD version. But with the BD you also get an additional interview with Rick Baker as he talks about his experiences from the making of the movie, plus a documentary titled "Beware the Moon". This latter feature is worth the price of the BD by itself.

So, how's the quality of the transfer? Pretty darned good, I'd say. Certainly the best that's ever been available. It is noticeably better than the HD-DVD transfer and the sound has either been remixed or improved in some way. The DTS 5.1 sound is perhaps not as good as some films, but it's a lot better than it was on the HD-DVD or standard DVD.

As for the film itself...what can I say? This continues to be one heck of a ride for the viewer. Everytime I mention this film to someone, they describe an experience they had when they first viewed it. (When I received this BD edition from Amazon, I showed it to one of my younger co-workers. Without any prompting he said, "I couldn't sleep for two weeks after I saw that on TV.")

What it will probably boil down to is, should you go ahead and buy this Full Moon Edition BD to replace your old HD-DVD or DVD? Heck, yeah! What are you waiting for? It's worth every penny.
 
4 Star Rating  "Collector's Edition DVD"2009-09-26
- Reviewed By User: ASJ54MITON1NO
This film plays more like a Black Comedy, than a Horror Film, partly due to the fact that Griffin Dunne's character Jack Goodman, isn't to be taken too seriously. Also, due to the fact that John Landis (The Blues Brothers, Trading Places), is also known for comedy films. So, the script, tends to look at the humor, rather than the horror. In any case, the film is entertaining, and when the film came out, 1981, it was a different approach, to the material, that's been done before.
 
5 Star Rating  "American Werewolf is Great"2009-06-24
- Reviewed By User: AXSG9SDX3CKU8
An American Werewolf in London is one of the best films of the '80s, featuring a great soundtrack and John Landis's renowned special effects (see Michael Jackson's Thriller), long before the age of CG. Purchased on VHS, this movie will last longer than on DVD, where even the slightest scratch can result in skips, chops, and freezes. I recommend this product to everyone.

This is such a great movie! One of the best werewolf movies made, I would say. Funny and gruesome! Very cool effects!
