Hilarious? Check. Amazing special effects? Check. An American Werewolf in London is a horror classic that has a lot going for it and a lot to talk about beyond its obvious accolades. Join Juliet and Theresa as they discuss how this movie serves as an allegory for Jewish-American identity abroad, what actually makes a movie a horror comedy and whether Alex committed some serious ethics violations.


Content warnings: brief mentions of suicide (as related to lycanthropy)
