Me too. I've never really had a favourite Universal Monster as I love them all but I seem to come back to this one more and more.

For tonight's film, I am entering into the world of Universal Monsters with the 1941 classic 'The Wolf Man'. With a cast of Lon Chaney Jr, Claude Rains, Bela Lugosi, Evelyn Ankers and Maria Ouspenskaya, I am not complaining 😃 📽 #HalloweenCountdown

Seventy years old and lacking a limb or two but Harryhausen's fearsome beast can still crush San Francisco with style. Magnificent movie magic. 1955.
