By 1943, Universal had spent more than a decade building some of horror’s most famous monsters. Then somebody finally asked the obvious question: what happens if we put two of them in the same movie?
Frankenstein Meets the Wolf Man brings Lon Chaney Jr. back as the tormented Larry Talbot, resurrected from the grave and once again cursed to become the Wolf Man whenever the moon is full. Desperate to find a permanent end to his suffering, Talbot searches for Dr. Frankenstein’s secrets and instead discovers the frozen Monster, played this time by Bela Lugosi. Naturally, waking him up seems like a reasonable next step.
In this episode of The Introverted Obelisk, we look at Universal’s first major monster crossover and the movie that helped pave the way for the increasingly crowded monster rallies that followed. We’ll explore Chaney’s continuing portrayal of Larry Talbot, Lugosi’s long-awaited turn as Frankenstein’s Monster, the return of Maria Ouspenskaya as Maleva, and the production decisions that left some rather noticeable questions about the Monster.
It’s Gothic tragedy, mad science, resurrection, and two horror icons finally sharing the screen. The title promised Frankenstein Meets the Wolf Man, and Universal was ready to deliver.
