Middling Universal horror fodder, at best. Go to Full Review

As a kid, I enjoyed this movie much more than I do as an adult. ALL those great Universal monsters in a single film. Even Dracula shows up. But, these days, FMWM seems contrived and dull. Go to Full Review

Pretty much the end of Universal's horror line as a home for even the vaguest kind of serious filmmaking. Go to Full Review

Robson C Jan 3 Quatro anos após a morte de Lawrence Talbot, ladrões de túmulos invadem seu mausoléu e o ressuscitam ao expô-lo à luz do luar, fazendo-o voltar como o Lobisomem. Desesperado, Lawrence busca ajuda de Maleva e parte em direção ao Dr. Frankenstein, esperando usar seus conhecimentos para se livrar da maldição. No caminho, encontra o Monstro e a baronesa Elsa Frankenstein, última herdeira da família. Considerado o primeiro grande exemplo de universo compartilhado, o filme une as franquias do Lobisomem e do Monstro de Frankenstein, mas não entrega muito além disso. O roteiro é fraco e dedica tempo demais ao Lobisomem, deixando o Monstro como mero coadjuvante, apesar de seu nome vir primeiro no título. A maquiagem continua excelente, e o Monstro adota um comportamento mais maligno, reflexo do filme anterior. No fim, é uma obra arrastada, incapaz de tornar o confronto entre as criaturas realmente interessante. See more Stephen C @bob25009 Oct 30 Success in 1 hour and 12 minutes!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! All ages admitted!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Also released in colorized version!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Dubbed and subtitled in worldwide studios!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! See more Cameron H @camthemovieman Oct 8 Loved the atmosphere, the gothic horror vibe, the lighting, and cinematography. Lon Chaney Jr was great but Bela Lugosi wasn’t the best as Frankenstein’s monster, he’s much better as Dracula. Overall it’s a solid classic horror film that’s worth a watch. See more Ted B @Movieaddicted Oct 3 3.0 stars; This movie was actually a sequel to "The Wolfman" and should have been titled "The Wolfman Meets Frankenstein." Though not as good as either of the original films about the Wolfman and Frankenstein, it was okay in its own right. Veteran horror actors Lon Chaney, Bela Lugosi, and Lionel Atwill gave good performances. The movie was okay, judging it by 1940s-era standards. See more Julian S @akajulianscott Feb 2 Even the title feels cheap. See more Johnathon W @Hoppynsc Jan 28 Cheesy entry in the franchise that doesn't contain the pathos of the original films but is still a fun watch. The cast is solid and it is notable this is the film Bela Lugosi played the Frankenstein monster. However, Roy William Neil's direction is more fun over well-crafted. Thankfully, not very long so worth checking out if part of a collection. See more Read all reviews
