Day 15 of the DeFranco Nation Movie Club and do we have a treat today!
"An American Werewolf In London" is a classic horror flick from 1981. I remember watching this when I was 10 years old. Holy crap!!! Did it ever freak me out. So,
buy I was too excited when Philly D chose this film for the movie club.
It's been 30 years since it's release. I have only fond memories of this one. But,
information pills I'm roughly 30 years older, a little wiser and have a slightly more refined taste in film (not by much, mind you). So, I was eager to rediscover this monster movie.
You can check out my thoughts in my vlog below.

Oh, and a tidbit of trivia...the make-up and special effects for this film were so groundbreaking that the Academy created the "Best Make-up" category in response to this film. Rick Baker won it that year for his work on this movie. He's won the Oscar six times since.
