An American Werewolf in London

When it comes to werewolf films, one title always stands above the rest as not just one of the best of the werewolf genre, but also as one of the best films in the horror genre. John Landis created the perfect werewolf movie and it doesn't include silver bullets! It does however include an oddly cheerful soundtrack and ground-breaking practical effects AND it was even the first ever film to win the Academy Award for Best Make-Up which was a category that was created in 1981, the year of this film's release.

Bubba the Redneck Werewolf

Bubba the Redneck Werewolf is such a fun film, with brilliantly written comedy and fun pop-culture references. The film feels like a superhero flick with a hillbilly heart that sees a simpleton zero become the town hero.

Alvin and the Chipmunks Meet the Wolfman

Some kids today might not know it but before the live-action films with CGI chipmunks that sing popular pop songs, there was a classic kids cartoon series where the famous trio of chipmunks sang their own original songs. Alvin and the Chipmunks have had many adventures over the years. As a fan of Universal Monster movies, I had to eventually come across this animated feature film, along with its counterpart 'Alvin and the Chipmunks Meet Frankenstein'.

The Wolf Man (1941)

If you're a fan of the werewolf sub-genre of movies then you will undoubtedly know all of the classic tropes that have become somewhat stereotypical and predictable within most of them. Be it the werewolf's weakness for silver, the gypsy curse, or the classic poem that begins "Even a man who is pure in heart...". Well, those classic tropes all began with this classic film, and although this was not Universal's first Werewolf film, it was certainly the most popular.
