Werewolf 3-Way

It’s that time of year again, when the leaves change color, pumpkin spice is everywhere, and a Rotten Halloween awaits. Once again, each of our panelists has chosen a film that Rotten Tomatoes scores low but that they personally admire. Those films are:

An American Werewolf in London

Dog Soldiers

The Howling
