Regular Joes Podcast

As impossible as it might seem, until quite recently, Barry had never seen An American Werewolf in London. This week, the Regular Joe’s, joined by Tom Spina of Regal Robot, take a look at the 1981 John Landis horror/dark comedy cult classic. Tom shares his first-hand experience with one of the screen used props, and recounts his own meeting with John Landis. Groundbreaking in many ways, the film earned Rick Baker the first ever Academy award for best makeup. In addition to an unforgettable transformation sequence, American Werewolf also has early 80s era Jenny Agutter, and that’s never a bad thing. More than 40 years later, the film remains scary and makes for a good Halloween rewatch. There’s also the usual random topics, and a round of What’s in the Box. Thanks for listening and happy Halloween.
