Today is Halloween and in this post I conclude my celebration of the Universal Pictures classic monster movies from the 30s and 40s. Today I submit, for your compliance consideration, my favorite of the classic monsters movies The Wolfman. I simply cannot see this movie enough. From the horrific scene where Lon Chaney Jr. kills Bela, the gypsy who had the pentagram, the mark of the wolf, to the ending scene where Claude Rains inadvertently kills his son, Lon Chaney Jr., in his incarnation as the beast with a silver tipped cane, I find it to be the most psychologically complex of all the classic Universal monsters.
