An American Werewolf in London
I had forgotten how funny this movie really was! I loved the combination of suspence, horror and comedy blended to make this masterpiece. All throughout the movie I grew to like the main character, David, even though I knew how the movie had to tragically end. Another thing I liked was how the movie ended so suddenly. No time to saw a few words to comfort his lover, Alex, or an explanation of why it happened. It showed his body, and then BANG, end credits. 5 out of 5.
