My Take
David Naughton occupies a charming corner of pop culture that I have a soft spot for. To horror fans he is forever the man undergoing that excruciating transformation in An American Werewolf in London, yet his real appeal, in my view, is range: a Penn-educated performer who could anchor a terrifying creature feature and also charm America as the smiling, dancing face of Dr Pepper. That swing between dread and sunny advertising takes more craft than people credit. I see him not as a one-hit figure but as a durable, versatile working entertainer who quietly stuck around for the long haul.
