Even today it's still stunning, the hair done in reverse photography was brilliant, and the bone stretching hands and face still rock!

The only bit that belittles the scene is when he reaches out at the camera, kinda cheesy. But awesome FX!

Nice! Was wondering when both were going to come out on Blu-Ray. Way to hit two birds with one stone!

I cant wait. I agree that the transformation was amazing, but the part that I found really terrifying was when they were on the moors in the beginning.

Ahh, I love this film. Still think it's one of the best Werewolf transformations i have ever seen. Too bad i'm too poor to pay for anything Blu-ray.

Now if they'd only re-release other HD-DVD releases like 'The Thing' 'The Frighteners' and 'Zodiac' on blu-ray, then I'd be set.

"American Werewolf" is a great film and deserves the BluRay treatment AND the documentary. Looking forward to this. AWOOOOOO!!!!!!

Good evening children of the night, I'm really looking forward to this one. One of my all-time favs. The "Slaughtered Lamb" scenes are the best. Creepy countryside, cold moonlit night, five-pointed star shrine. The best werewolf howl sound effects I've ever heard. I thought they might tell the tale about the guy/werewolf that attacked Jack & David. The place seemed to have a long history. A pre-quel about the werewolf's origins at that town. Then get into how Jack & David's attacker became a werewolf himself. It'd be better than a remake in my opinion. Just a thought. "Stick to the road, keep clear of the moors"---AWIL.

Will we ever get to see the complete scene where the 3 homeless guys were killed? I remember when they had a screening in Long Island before the movie came out, and this scene was so gory, they said it took the audience too long to settle down after, and so they had to cut it. I've been waiting for it to show up as an extra on a DVD. But nothing yet. Find that scene!
