David regains consciousness in the hospital to the care of Nurse Alex Price (Jenny Agutter – Child’s Play 2), who also takes him home for further recovery when he is discharged from the hospital and has no where to go at the time. David begins having strange cravings and visits from Jack, who tries to convince David to kill himself so he can move on. To make matters worse, David begins waking up in strange places naked, and Jack's visits are accompanied by other apparitions that aren’t happy with him.
An American Werewolf in London is an excellent movie that mixes an appropriate style of comedy to compliment the horror, but what would you expect from John Landis (Animal House). Add the cutting edge special effects that still hold up today, and you have fun flick with a pleasant mix of laughs and gasps.

Overall:
This is one of my top ten movies of all time. It has everything from humor, scares great special effects, and I have been on the moors, so there are pleasant reminisces from the pub and the locals. And Blu-Ray just enhances the experience with the Dolby 5.1 Surround Sound, and the high definition makes this excellent film crisp and clear. The transformation scene and Jacks apparition in high definition is ghastly fun.
