4. An American Werewolf In London
An American Werewolf In London is a classic - not merely of the genre - but also of film in general. It remains a triumph of special and practical effects, and horror fans will continue to talk of its greatness long after the gimmick heavy garabage of the modern market finally hammers the final nail into the horror genre's coffin lid.
But even in that context, you have to wonder why John Landis thought it was appropriate to dedicate the movie to Prince Charles and Lady Diana Spencer on their recent nuptials. A romantic comedy, perhaps even a royalist historical drama, might work but a balls-out horror movie about a werewolf? How is that the best way to congratulate the future king of England on his new wife?
