Description:
For the first time ever, the original The Wolf Man film comes to DVD in this extraordinary Legacy Collection. Included in the collection is the original classic, starring the renowned Lon Chaney Jr., and three timeless sequels, featuring legendary actor Bela Lugosi and others. These are the landmark films that inspired an entire genre of movies and continue to be major influences on motion pictures to this day.

Personally, this is a great set. But two of the film are not very entertaining at all. My rating of these films are listed below.
The WolfMan- *****: The 1941 classic starring Lon Chaney Jr. as the cursed Larry Talbot.
Frankenstein Meets The WolfMan- ****: The WolfMan fights the Frankenstein Monster is this classic Monster battle.
The She-Wolf of London- **: Less entertaining yarn of a lycanthrope
The Werewolf of London- **1/2: Another less impressive lycanthrope movie that was released six years before The WolfMan (1941)

I've ordered and received three of the Legacy Collections: Frankenstein, Wolfman & Invisible Man. I've found no problems with their condition or playability. There was a loose disk in one of them but it played with no problems despite minor scuff marks.
I must say that the nay-sayers who gave such poor reviews to these wonderful collections based upon their own individual playback issues caused more than a little concern for me. Perhaps they should try their disks in more than one type of DVD player. Not all DVD players like all disks.
I sincerely recommend these collections for what they are; good quality in both audio and video. Certainly as good or better than when they were shown on TV in the 50's, 60's and 70's.
Perhaps for those un-pleasable few who complain that their quality isn't up to modern standards; take a look at when they were made. There was no such thing as high definition or 5.1 surround sound in the 30's, 40's or 50's. Give it a rest!

The Wolf man is a great classic horror flick and its sequels make for good entertainment. I especially like to watch these flicks during Halloween and consider it a fall tradition.

Gotta see The Wolf Man! No, it isn't the same as Dracula or Frankenstein but hey, there's a lot there to love. The extra movies tend to be better too. Whereas The Wolf Man is a good movie, Frankenstein Meets The Wolf Man is better and the other two extra movies, Werewolf of London and She-Wolf of London aren't bad.

Great movie! The box was dented in pretty bad on one end with plastic on the case broken as well. The DVD itself was in great shape and the movie played with no problems. Be careful with ordering this item if you want it as a collectible and want the case to not be banged up.
