Stars in Rewind: An American Werewolf in London
NSFW: Foul language.
Recently, I mentioned my neverending plan to see The Goddess of 1967. There are others on the list as well, like Stalag 17, a laserdisc which still sits at the foot of my bed, waiting to be watched. But, luckily, I can be happy with my cinematic to-do list without much guilt. Maybe there's a shocked face here or there from a friend, but that's it.
The same cannot be said for Diablo Cody, who just blogged about one of her to-watch movies, and how she got one of the most embarrassing, yet truly cool reasons to stop putting it off. She's never seen An American Werewolf in London, and Edgar Wright gave her a copy for her birthday with this written on the front: "Diablo, please watch my movie. John Landis." It was written by the man himself, and not Edgar pretending. That's the ultimate motivation.
So, in honor of embarrassment in the face of classic filmmakers, here's a Stars in Rewind for Landis' classic.

(Page 1)3. I just saw Landis and Naughton speak at the Horror Hound Convention last night. Then today, Landis nearly tackled me while trying to rush through a crowd of people.

1. Diablo Cody bites my ass! Who gives a shait about what movie she hasn't seen? Fine, I like An American Werewolf in London, great movie, thanks for a good post but, did you have to bring that boring character back from the dead? Seriously, I am beginning to agree with another fellow reader, she has some strange influence in this movie blog.
