AN AMERICAN WEREWOLF IN LONDON
Two American students David Kessler and Jack Goodman are on a summer backpacking hike through the Yorkshire moors. On July 17, 1981[00:01 to 17:24], the night of the full moon, they are attacked by a large animal and Jack is killed, but David sees the naked body of a man instead of an animal after their attacker is shot and killed. Three weeks later, Jack appears to David as a zombie explaining David is now a werewolf and that he should suicide to avoid hurting anyone and release Jack’s soul. When the full moon appears David becomes a werewolf and roams London, attacking and killing many. After he fails to get himself arrested or commit suicide, David transforms again and is killed by the police.
The full moon shown at 12:14 happens on this date.
