AN AMERICAN WEREWOLF IN LONDON was an Eady Plan picture. Making it British. It's often erroneously cited as an American film because of it's ties to Universal, though it was only bought by Universal for US Distribution and then later bought entirely from John Landis for all media/territories in 2001.
The movie was paid for entirely from British bank funding, which Polygram Pictures (a Dutch company run by Americans) then paid back in full once the movie was complete. However, this deal was made within the British quota system, and Lycanthrope films Ltd. - the company set up by John Landis and George Folsey Jr. to make the film - was established in the UK.
