Attention John Landis fans! Two bits of news with regard to Landis's 1981 thriller; the original has gone to Blu-ray, so look for that. And Dimension Films has acquired the rights to AAWL and a remake is in the works. No release date given. We can only hope they do a good job of it. Here at Holiday Hollow we try not to prejudge, despite how lame too many of the recent remakes have been.....
More info here; An American Werewolf in London
Thanks to JT at Halloween Forum for that tip!
I remember seeing that movie at the drive in when it first came out..loved it..watched it recently too..about 6 months ago...doesn't hold the same as it did way back when...;)
ReplyDeleteEverything 80s looks dated now....even me! LOL! But it was a great movie. The werewolf transformation scene was ground breaking. Kids today think that sort of thing is old hat!*grumbles like an old hat herself*

I wish they'd stop messing with the classics.....
ReplyDeleteI'm willing to give it a try Shane. ;)

Oh, I'm sure I'll watch it...I just like to grumble! ;)
ReplyDeleteHa! No worries. Occasionally, very occasionally, the remake is as good as or surpasses the original. I don't think filming has even started on this yet so it may be awhile, if it comes out at all.
