    It's not that the Reverend wanted to take the bat home with him. It's just that, every time he threw it away, his Werewolf side fetched it.

    The getting the bullet is the best scene. Busey tells the guy that it's for his nephew who is a big Lone Ranger fan. the guy makes the bullet and gives it to him, explaining that he made the slug a low grain weight to prevent it from tumbling. It suggests this guy has either done this before, or suspected the killings were a werewolf the whole time.

    funny anecdote: one night my grandmother was babysitting me and I was still a wee one in my crib, and my bed faced the open door that led right to the living room and had a view of the TV. Granny was watching this flick, obviously figuring I was asleep, but when she got to the part of the woman being mauled I apparently stood up in my crib and said "Bad doggie!"

    Silver Bullet was one of those many gems from the ‘80’s with some great casting.
    Back then, I was in love with Megan Follows. And Corey Haim was just emerging a major ‘80’s child/teen star. And of course, there was Gary Busey...crazy yet still coherent and a pretty good actor. The only thing that would have made the casting perfect would have been Dee Wallace as the mother. Luckily we got her in Cujo and E.T.

    • @curbozer5006
      @curbozer5006 4 роки тому +3

      Poor Busey...he absolutely nailed playing Buddy Holley!...even playing good guitar...maybe when you are so on fire at the beginning of your career, it becomes too much to live up to later on...at least he had a decent career into the 80s...moreso than Steve Railsback, who also had a tremendous performance, as Manson, at the beginning of his career, then faded away.

    Arnie Western, or whatever his name was, was a chronic drunk... who could apparently recognize werewolf tracks on sight. Plus there's a near mystical gunsmith who just drops the bombshell that someone would be asking him to make a silver bullet to shoot a werewolf. Anyone else think this movie is begging for a prequel? Silver Bullet: The Gunsmith's Tale.
