Classic. Love this movie. More like this please!
Most influential werewolf film ever? Yes. Universal monster with the most humanity? Yes.
Simply put, the greatest werewolf movie of all time by virtue of being the most iconic and influential. It almost completely creates the werewolf lore we know today and most of the tropes we love. Lon Chaney Jr. ’s best role.
such a great movie. huge fan of the OG universal monsters
Flawless, in the campiest way.
