Landis Talks ‘An American Werewolf In London’ Remake
This past weekend John Landis attended the HorrorHound Weekened in Pittsburgh to meet and greet with tons of horror fans. While hanging out with Bloody-Disgusting we had the chance to talk a bit about a possible remake to his classic An American Werewolf In London, which will be arriving on Blu-ray with the documentary BEWARE THE MOON sometime in 2009. In brief, Landis exclaimed with excitement “I would do it, sure!” telling us that there have been a wide range of talks over the years. What is really comes down to is licensing the character rights, which Landis owns. So for those of you who want a remake, there is a good chance it’ll eventually happen. In the film two American tourists in England are attacked by a werewolf that none of the locals will admit exists.

In This Tempting Madness, “Mia awakens from a coma grievously injured, her memory fractured. As she puts the pieces of her past together, she starts to question her own actions, and her perception of reality.”
Jennifer E. Montgomery makes her feature directorial debut from a script she co-wrote with director of photography Andrew Davis, inspired by Montgomery’s first-hand experience with tragedy involving her best friend.
“Months before the incident, there were signals that her world was unraveling,” says Montgomery. “I could feel the pressure building, though I didn’t know what form it would take. I never could have known what violence would come, and I certainly never imagined making a film about it.”
Austin Stowell (“NCIS: Origins”), Suraj Sharma (Happy Death Day 2U), Mojean Aria (Reminiscence), Amol Shah (“For All Mankind”), and Zenobia Shroff (“Ms. Marvel”) round out the cast.
Smoke Jumper Films and Mango Monster Productions produce in association with Catchlight Studios (Heretic, The Blackening).
This Tempting Madness is rated R for “language, violence/bloody images, and brief sexuality.”
