Try not to wolf out because we're talking about John Landis' classic, An American Werewolf in London (1981). Backpacking along with us is Xero Gravity, who went on a werewolf binge and has recommendations!
Up for discussion: Alex's underdeveloped character, urban set pieces, dirty movie theaters, and British rural horror.
Plus: a queer reading of David and Jack's relationship, Jewish horror, an unsexy sex scene, and extended tangents about werewolf anatomy.
