He came to study art—he left hunted by the full moon and his own reflection.
An American Werewolf in London (2025) is a chilling and clever reimagining of John Landis’s 1981 cult horror-comedy classic. In this modern take, the line between nightmare and myth is blurred once more—only this time, the monster is not the only thing hiding in the dark.
The story follows Ethan Hall, an American art student studying abroad in London. While hiking through the misty Yorkshire Moors with classmates, the group is attacked by a mysterious creature under a blood-red moon. Ethan survives—but something within him begins to change. Haunted by violent dreams and glimpses of distorted reflections, he begins to question his sanity.
But he's not alone. A cryptic folklore professor warns him that ancient werewolf bloodlines are reawakening—and that London has seen this darkness before. As his body changes and guilt eats away at his mind, Ethan must choose: suppress the curse and let it destroy him from within, or embrace the beast and risk everyone around him.
Balancing atmospheric horror with dark humor and brutal transformation scenes, An American Werewolf in London (2025) keeps the practical effects spirit of the original while introducing psychological horror, deeper lore, and a modern Gothic aesthetic. This is not just a monster movie—it’s a story about identity, isolation, and the monstrous things we carry.
