A couple of grave-robbers get much more than they bargained for when they desecrate the tomb of Wolf-Man "Larry Talbot" (Lon Chaney Jr.) who is ultimately seeking the peace of death. Teaming up with a gypsy "Maleva" who knows his secret they set off to find the one man who can fulfil his wish - "Dr. Frankenstein". He is long since dead but his daughter agrees to help find the papers in her late father's derelict castle. There they stumble upon his monster (Bela Lugosi) and free it from captivity in a block of ice. It goes on the rampage and we find ourselves in the more traditional monster-hunt scenario. Dennis Hoey is again cast as the policeman (a role he played frequently in Roy William Neill's "Sherlock Holmes" films) and Patric Knowles and Ilona Massey provide solid support in this entertaining, if predictable, short terror feature. Could have done without the song, I think, though.
Read the whole review on TMDBI only want to die. That's why I'm here. If I ever find peace I'll find it here. In an effort to revitalise their monster franchise at the box offices, Universal hit on the idea of of featuring more than one monster in a movie. Frankenstein Meets the Wolf Man was to be the first of many such ventures. Lon Chaney Jr is back as Larry Talbot/The Wolf Man, who after being awoken by unsuspecting grave robbers, is once again tortured by his curse and desperately wants an end to his misery. Seeking out the Gypsy woman Maleva (Maria Ouspenskaya), the pair of them head off to find Dr. Frankenstein in the hope of finding a solution. He's dead, though, but there's another scientist on hand for help and as the villagers once again take unkindly to someone rekindling old nightmares, all while the Frankenstein Monster (Bela Lugosi) is found preserved in ice... It's in effect a sequel to both The Wolf Man and The Ghost of Frankenstein, though as would become the norm, Monster Frank is a bit part player in a film bearing his name. The film is delightfully brisk and with Chaney doing good work as the tortured Talbot - with the relationship between Maleva and himself quite touching - the story carri
