I loved this film
when I first saw it as a kid in thirty something years ago. Watching it as an
older, fatter human I still enjoyed it although some of the plot points (Oliver
Reed becomes a werewolf because he's an illegitimate child born on Christmas
day?) are a big pot of testicles.
Fascinating story
time. Years ago I was mates with a fellow who was good chums with Oliver Reed's
son. He was really into his custom bikes and suchlike. He was considering using
a Rolls Royce as the base for a trike. Apparently Rolls Royce got to hear of
this and threatened legal action (can't see how they could, but anyway) as it
would besmirch their good name, or some other such fucking poncery you'd associate with the builders of the world's finest cuntwagons.
When Papa Reed heard
of this he was apparently very enthusiastic that Jnr. go ahead and build the
thing so that he could bring great publicity to the court case and show up
Rolls Royce for being pissy spastics.
Who build really
expensive cars for wankers.
Well, when I say 'fascinating',
what I should've typed is 'A story'.
