6/10. Basically you are either a Howling fan or an American Werewolf fan. I am a Howling fan--(aka British Werewolf in Los Angeles---Patrick Macnee is the werewolf from abroad). I think it doesn't work as a horror film much of the time--and the only real pathos comes right at the end thanks to Jenny Agutter. Werewolf films I like better-Curse of the Werewolf, The Beast Must Die, The Boy Who Cried Werewolf. It's hard to top Lon Chaney for the sad sack cursed human.

I've only seen it from start-to-finish once. That was a long time ago. I was in my 20s. I didn't like it. Like, at all. But I can't say I remember much about it.

I think it doesn't work as a horror film much of the time--and the only real pathos comes right at the end thanks to Jenny Agutter. Werewolf films I like better-Curse of the Werewolf, The Beast Must Die, The Boy Who Cried Werewolf. It's hard to top Lon Chaney for the sad sack cursed human. Just about everything you wrote there is wrong. (Not to say that you don't know what you like, obviously. I mean, we are polar opposites on The Beast Must Die vs American Werewolf in London. And Lon Chaney was awful in The Werewolf, although he was alright in Abbott & Costello Meet Frankenstein.)

You're wrong about Chaney ever being awful in a Universal film though. Also he wasn't even in The Werewolf. Come on bro.

I hope you aren't suggesting David Naughton generates anything close to Larry Talbot pathos--I have nothing to say to that. It's not even worth debating.
