An American Werewolf in London

Fresh off the back of The Blues Brothers, director John Landis created this charming story of wildlife on the Yorkshire Moors. Sadly, the wildlife in this feature is really rather wild.

Two American tourists pop over to Britain and take a wander through the countryside. Unbeknownst to them, there happens to be a little case of Lycanthropy in the nations largest county and unfortunately for them, it's contagious through nibbling...on them. So, eventually, the surviving Yank ends up in London and there's the title for ya.

To give you a clue as to how phenomenal the Special effects/Make up are in this film, the Academy Awards committee created the 'Outstanding Achievement in Makeup' award, especially for effects guru Rick Baker in 1981.
