5 out of 5 stars The Wolf Man!   November 21, 2008
Gotta see The Wolf Man! No, it isn't the same as Dracula or Frankenstein but hey, there's a lot there to love. The extra movies tend to be better too. Whereas The Wolf Man is a good movie, Frankenstein Meets The Wolf Man is better and the other two extra movies, Werewolf of London and She-Wolf of London aren't bad.

Great movie! The box was dented in pretty bad on one end with plastic on the case broken as well. The DVD itself was in great shape and the movie played with no problems. Be careful with ordering this item if you want it as a collectible and want the case to not be banged up.

5 out of 5 stars Universal's Wolfman-The Monster Everbody Loved   February 15, 2008
  1 out of 1 found this review helpful

Universal's Wolf Man is one of the three classic horrors from that great movie studio. Although few people consider Lon Chaney Jr. a superior actor, he himself used to boast "The Wolf Man was my baby". As for me I always considered the Wolf Man my personal favorite.

Dracula, Frankenstein and the Wolf Man are almost universally admired as the original films of the classic horror series. From among these three creatures none was considered more sympathetically, or loved more than Larry Talbot. Let's face it, Lon Chaney was the Wolf Man and I think something about the big lug helped create the character so many of us loved so much.

The Frankenstein monster and the count were both portraid by several actors for Universal with some measure of financial success. Can you recall the Univeral studio ever attempting to have the Talbot Wolf Man portraid by any stand in actor? They wouldn't even consider it.

This DVD was the result of an excellent transfer from a good film original and should be added to every collection of classic horror. The other films featured in this box set are also fine works in the UNIVERSAL tradition. This a good set to purchase and well worth the price.
