This week, Mike talks about his favorite horror movie of all time when he discusses 1981’s An American werewolf in London, written and directed by John Landis. Once deemed “too funny to be scary and too scary to be funny” it went on to invent or at least refine the horror-comedy hybrid. This week he is joined by England’s own Rebecca McCallum of Ghouls magazine and the Moving Pictures Film Club to talk about their mutual love for this movie. We discuss the standout special effects created by Rick Baker, how the comedy and horror still hit 4 decades later, the mutual attraction between David and Alex, and also the queer overtones that permeate this film with the relationship of Jack and David. We also discuss the idea of othering and how it feels to be a stranger trapped in an unfamiliar territory in extraordinary circumstances. For our mental health topic this month we talk about new relationship energy and the many factors that go into why we're attracted to certain people. This was a fun one to record and if there's one thing Mike feels like he could talk about for days it's this movie. So beware the moon friends and stay off the moors because it's about to get all hairy up in here.
