3. Goosebumps
2. Dog Soldiers
1. American Werewolf in London

Dishonorable mentions go to the first two Underworld movies, the Twilight saga and Van Helsing for having werewolves but being so poor I wont even use them to fill my top ten.

Although I do get a bizarre enjoyment out of the first Twilight in a so bad it's hilarious cult way. It's just so cheap and cheesy and badly made it's almost like a fun B movie, but they lost that when they got a budget and remotely competent effects and direction.

I like that you've included Goosebumps Fuzzy, I'm considering that one myself. Despite not being in it all that much it is a very cool looking werewolf. As for at least the first two Underworld movies and Van Helsing for that matter, I'm not sure why they're getting dishonourable mentions. The Underworld films will definitely make my list.
I also don't mind admitting i quite like (although not in any orthodox sense) the first Twilight film. Unfortunately the rest of the series are pure arse-cheddar.

I considered giving the excellent Hammer House of Horror episode Children of the Full Moon a placing, but left it out due to it being tv, however if pop videos qualify then who knows?

Bugger all wrong with the Underworld films and Van Helsing (nothing to do with how hot Kate Beckinsale looks in them, your honour!)

Glad someone appreciated that pick, I was originally going to do the episode from the original series and thought it might be cheating, so I went for the movie which certainly did the character more justice (albeit brief as you said).

Also quite a relief to find someone else who can back me up on the Twilight films.

Ok look, maybe I'm due a rewatch of the first two Underworlds and Van Helsing because I hated all 3 of them when I first saw them. Looks like I need to give them a rewatch based on what you're all saying!

I suspect Riks beaten me to it really. But for Fuzz and anyone else who's uncertain let me just recap the subtle nuances of the plot of Underworld to you.
Kate Beckinsale's arse...in a tight leather catsuit thingy.
Come to think of it a very similar plot device is used in Van Helsing.

I can't remember the title but I'm contemplating the werewolf episode from Kolchak. Also does anyone remember an early 90's flick with Mario Van Peebles and Patsy Kensit(?) called something Eclipse about a group of elite werewolf cops?

The Kolchak episode was simply called "The Werewolf" and the other one is "Full Eclipse", TV movie from 1993

Embarrasing admission, I played Price in a primary school performance of Thriller, came out of a coffin and had memorized the whole speel and everything!

Shit that was a long time ago now

Being much older than I was when I first saw them, I can definitely appreicate that factor a lot more now!!
