Bring on the bloody knuckles!
The Wolf Man scores another perfect 5 on the rating scale with Frankenstein Meets The Wolf Man.
This movie had a bit riding for it as a sequel to both the Wolfman and Ghost Of Frankenstein. It’s also in my opinion a sequel that lives up to the hype and carries on better.
Talbot’s tortured legacy continues on after he’s resurrected and at best all he wants to do is die and his obsession for answers is what leads him to Frankenstein’s estate and all of the darkness in that legacy as well.
This is actually my favorite of the Universal Horrors films. When crossovers are done right they can lead to excellent storytelling. Not to mention featuring two icons in one great movie. This film led the way for House of Frankenstein, House of Dracula, and the Universal Monsters meeting Abbott and Costello.
Once again I give 5 Bloody Knuckles!!
I actually believe this movie was the beginning of the end for the Golden Age horror monsters. I always felt that, after this movie; things started losing their appeal in artistic style and imagination. I guess these feelings are mainly because Karloff never played the monster and as much as Lugosi was good… he just didn’t do it for me. Also, the monster become less of a tortured character and more of a MacGuffin. But all in all, I love Frankenstein Meets the Wolf Man.
