John Landis's idea of the transformation was a visceral one; he wanted to portray the pain that is a direct consequence of such a significant bodily mutation over a short period of time. "I always thought if your body is gonna go through such a huge change, it's gonna hurt," Landis said. "I wanted it to be painful." When it came to the audience, he wanted to evoke different emotions in the spectators; the transformation had to be "horrifying, but also morbidly funny, funny peculiar and funny ha-ha; tragic, raw, terrible, tortuous, grotesque all of these things, yet fascinating rather than repulsive."
