HOUSE OF DRACULA 1945 (UNIVERSAL)

I simply love these Universal monster fests where several of the monsters appear in the same film!
Onslow Stevens is Dr. Edlemann a man who has done miracles in medicine and soon finds himself accosted by Dracula, played by John Carradine who is seeking help and wanting to be cured of his affliction.
His motive is simple, he actually wants to take the doctor's assistant as his bride. Lon Chaney shows up as Larry Talbot who also seeks a cure from his curse of being a werewolf.
Edlemann kills Dracula but finds that his blood has been tainted with the blood of Dracula and soon he becomes a demented killer who wants to bring the Frankenstein monster back to life.
Talbit is actually cured in this film and he helps destroy the Frankenstein Monster.
Wild and crazy Universal fun with a great cast rounded out by Skelton Knaggs, Glenn Strange, Lionel Atwill, Martha O' Driscoll and Jane Adams. Highly Recommended!!
