Viewing Notes

Last film in the Legacy Collection that I borrowed from Ron. I really need to get this set b/c I enjoy all these films except the Abbott & Costello flick, which I do own on Blu already.

Really like this movie and the ongoing series thread of Chaney Jr’s Wolfman wanting to die and/or a cure for his lycanthropic disease. I really don’t like Carradine as Dracula or whatever.
