American Werewolf in London was the best of all.

No Werewolf movie list is legitimate without “Teen Wolf”!

I wasn’t aware there were any good werewolf movies.

Sure the 1941 version was campy and the sets were almost small enough to fit on a Broadway stage but...

It had Maria Ouspenskaya's lament “...as the rain enters the soil, as the river enters the sea, so are tears that surround your predestined end...”

It had that great camera shot in church when Larry Talbot hesitates taking his seat.

It had that great line by Claude Rains about amateur astronomy...”when it comes to the Heavens there is only one professional.”

It had Bela Lugosi is a short but perfect role as the gypsy fortune teller with his accent in full bloom.

And it had the anguish of Lon Chaney Jr. struggling when his breakdown.

Werewolf of London(1935) (featuring future Charlie Chan Warner Oland as the first werewolf) deserves to be on the list. Creepier than the Lon Chaney Wolfman.

And Frankenstein Meets the Wolfman (1942) should be on the list if only for the incredibly catchy musical number in the middle of the movie.

I hate to change the subject of this thread, but it does make me wonder:
Is anyone else having more and more problems finding and buying silver bullets nowdays?
