I just want to be free of this existence. That’s what brought me here, and if I ever experience serenity, it will likely be within this film. Universal attempted to boost their monster movies' earnings by combining multiple creatures in a single story. *Frankenstein Meets the Wolf Man* was intended as the initial installment of this strategy. Lon Chaney Jr. reprises his role as Larry Talbot/The Wolf Man, who is roused from his resting place by unintentional desecrators and once more suffers under the weight of his affliction, yearning for an escape from his pain. He and Maleva (Maria Ouspenskaya), a Romani woman, set out to locate Dr. Frankenstein in search of a remedy. The doctor has passed away, but another scientist is available to offer assistance. As local people react negatively to the resurgence of old terrors, the Frankenstein Monster (Bela Lugosi) is discovered frozen within ice... The film functions as a continuation of both *The Wolf Man* and *The Ghost of Frankenstein*, although, as would frequently occur, the Frankenstein creature has a minor role in a movie that includes his name. The pacing is quite quick, and Chaney delivers a strong performance portraying Talbot’s suffering; the connection between his character and Maleva's is genuinely moving, which gives the narrative some emotional depth. Lugosi doesn’t seem suitable for the monster’s part, Patrick Knowles’ sudden shift into a mad scientist feels poorly conceived, and the climactic confrontation is disappointingly short. The actors—with the possible exception of Chaney—were underserved by the editing and writing, but it remains an enjoyable experience for those who appreciate Universal's classic monsters. 6/10
