Lon Chaney Jr. stars as the unfortunate Larry Talbot, who gets bitten by a werewolf and survives to carry the curse. Bela Lugosi, Claude Rains and the wonderful Maria Ouspenskaya (as a spooky gypsy woman) co-star in this Universal classic. In Frankenstein Meets the Wolf Man, Larry (Chaney Jr.) seeks out Dr. Frankenstein to help him lift the curse, but encounters the doctor's monster (Lugosi) instead, which leads to a classic showdown.
