Review of House of Dracula (1945) by Richard G — 20 Dec 2010

Made in 1945.Sequel to 'House of Frankenstein' Count Dracula and the Wolf Man seek a cure for their afflictions; a hunchbacked woman, a mad scientist and the Frankenstein monster have their own troubles.

How Dracula+The Wolfman come back from the dead is nver explained so we have to use our imagination there,the Frankenstein Monster however we are given an explanation of what became of him,although I dont think this film is quite as good as House of Frankenstein and its very melodramatic and does actually dare to be different from universal's other Monster Mash movies as there's a bit of a Jekyll+Hyde story going on in the mix too,John Carradine this time as Dracula is given more screentime than in the last installement but I feel that Glenn Strange as the frankenstein Monster is wasted in this as he does'nt get to do much,to sum this movie up although its not as fun as 'House of' its still a good watch.
