Horror in the Caves: An American Werewolf in London

Director
John Landis
Certificate
15
Running Time
93 mins

Another welcome outing for John Landis’s 1981 horror comedy, with a decomposing Griffin Dunne, David Naughton transmogrifying to the strains of CCR’s Bad Moon Rising, a terrific sequence in the London underground, and Jenny Agutter in a nurse’s outfit. It really doesn’t get any better than this. Watch out for the very young Rik Mayall in the Slaughtered Lamb.

It’s back on screen in spooky ol’ Redcliffe Caves as part of this year’s Horror in the Caves Halloween warm-up weekend, courtesy of Bristol Film Festival. Go here for ticket details.
