Forget 'The Howling', It's still a good film but once seen it gets boring on repeated viewings but this film just keeps improving every time you watch it. No matter how many times I hear Brian Glovers Alamo joke at the start I fall about laughing and that scene is perfect for it relaxes you and makes the following scene more shocking for its brutality when they get attacked. The casting is brilliant - every character believable.. David Naughton is fantastic, Jenny Agutter is absolutely beautiful in this, and John Woodvine plays his part perfectly as does everyone involved. The special effects were groundbreaking at the time and with no CGI which the belated sequel 'An American Werewolf In Paris' relied on - watch both films and this one is visually more impressive and a credit to John Landis. This remains his most exciting and entertaining movie and a brilliant way to spend 90 minutes. One of my all time favourite movies and a pleasure to revisit. 10/10. P.S. If there's a pub in England called 'The Slaughtered Lamb' let me know! I'd love to visit it... but I'd stay on the road!!
