Question on An American Werewolf in London
The other day me and ChronoGrl were watching An American Werewolf in London and, in the film, it establishes that the victims of the werewolf exist in limbo until the wolf's bloodline is severed. I was wondering exactly what made the main character a werewolf, but not his friend or victims. Did he just not bite his victims? If that's the reason, why do you think that is? So, what are your thought?

because they were dead

villains right, in order to become a werewolf you have to be wounded by a werewolf not killed. I have spent 15 years studying monsters and their history if you have more questions you know who to talk to.
|
The other victims who are in limbo are indeed dead.That`s why no-one else but David can see them.
|
Yeah, similar to zombies, right? They can either kill you or if you just get bitten, then BAM! You're a zombie!

I've always wondered what zombies are thinking about.

I think they applied the same to vampires (Lost Boys?).
Vampire drinks all your blood, you die. Vampire drinks some of your blood, you become a vampire. I remember it being like this until some said you had to drink their blood to become on (Interview With The Vampire). Makes more sense otherwise there would be to many vampires and not enough prey. |
Well Baron it works like this with vampires, vampires they have to infect your blood sells by mixing their blood with yours. If they drink all your blood they cant contaminate it.

Of course different movies/stories adjust the rules.
Like in Horror of Dracula, the victim gets some of their blood sucked out over a series of nights, and if not stopped, this leads to "undead" or being a vampire slave to Drac. Other films go with that as well. I think Bram Stoker's Drac did as well. The werewolf victims in limbo I think is a new thing in American Werewolf. |
people don't immediately turn to vampires when the director conveniently does a long and often drawn out, 'let me prove my love by rescuing the girl before she turns' type story
