House of Dracula (1945)
Director: Erle C Kenton
Movie review
From Time Out Film Guide
A follow-up to Universal's House of Franken-stein monster omnibus, this time adding a girl hunchback to the usual fauna. Stevens plays a benevolent doctor who cures the Wolf Man, fails with Dracula, and while running amok himself with an inadvertently acquired bloodlust, gleefully revives the Frankenstein monster. It all ends in a grand holocaust borrowed from The Ghost of Frankenstein. Nicely shot by George Robinson, it's agreeably loony fun if you don't expect too much.Author: TM
