This has got to be one of the greatest werewolf films of our time! Two American backpackers walking across the moors in Yorkshire find their way to a pub called "The Slaughtered Lamb". To their dismay they realize that they are not welcome and are asked to leave. The pub owner argues their case for them but could not stop the locals from booting them out into the dark cold night. One of the locals warns them to "Stay on the road, don't go near the moors". They leave the pub a bit miffed and guess what happens, yes that`s right, they wander onto the moors. After ambling along for a while they realize that they are not alone. They can hear a wild animal circling them in the dark. It moves in for the kill and rips one of them to pieces. The other manages to survive with only one war wound but the nightmare has only just begun.

Stunning special effects (by Richard Baker) and an excellent story line (directed by John Landis) make this one of the best werewolf films ever. Good direction mixed with atmosphere and a great cast and music make this a surefire hit and not to be missed. Check out the remastered special edition on DVD.
