Middling Universal horror fodder, at best.

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.

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

I enjoy it when the Universal Monsterverse does a crossover episode.

A pretty sad and misguided match-up: a tragic scientific abomination meets a tragic cursed man. Doesn't exactly bring to mind the exciting hand-to-hand fights to the death on the edges of stormy cliffs the advertising promises. That is, when they're even on screen, and we're subjected to a sub-par Universal thriller that just reminds the audiences we're past their creative renaissance of the early '30s now...

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.
