The Wolf Man: Complete Legacy Collection [DVD]

I love these old classic monster movies! I wasn't around at the time they were made. But I watched them on TV every Halloween growing up in the 60's and 70's. I've always wanted also my own private collection. The disc were perfect condition. I also just ordered the Mummy complete classic collection. Hopefully soon I'll order Dracula classic collection complete and The Invisible Man classic collection complete. These are a must for any serious monster movie collector. Also getting The classic Frankenstein classic complete .

the wolfman is my favorite of the universal monsters i was super pleased to multiple movies for a low price

Old time classic

Great collection and video quality for the iconic Wolf Man horror films.

Great set !7 Classic Universal Pictures Horror Films from 1935 to 1948.(okay, maybe 6 Classics, as "She-Wolf of London" is good but not up to the other 6 films)Great restorations. Most from 4k restorations.I already have 1 of these films from the Universal Classic Monsters: Essential Collection Blu-ray setthat was released in 2012(that being "The Wolf Man" included in that 9-films on 8 Blu-rays set)andI already have 4 more that are in Universal's 8-films Frankenstein: The Complete Legacy Blu-ray set("Frankenstein Meets the Wolf Man," "House of Frankenstein," "House of Dracula," "Bud Abbott/Lou Costello Meet Frankenstein")butas a completist,I wanted this one as well (and the price is right).So, the additional purchase here is only for "Werewolf of London" and "She Wolf of London,"yet I like having each series completely in its own set.I also think that Universal did a good thing for the average customer (and for those new to Classic Monster movies):While you get many of the same films,the average consumer and the younger or newer fan now knows which film came in what order for which monster.Yes,The Wolf Man is in the final 4 of the 8 Frankenstein films made by Universal from 1931 to 1948(and, yes, "House of Dracula," like "House of Frankenstein" & "Bud Abbott/Lou Costelle Meet Frankenstein," has the Wolf Man, Dracula, and the Frankentein Monster -- The first 3 Monster Rally Movies!)Great stuff.All the movies are fun.Most are truly Classic in the most fun sense of the word.All look better than you have seen before.In fact, even taking into account that it was new in 1943,I think that "Frankenstein Meets the Wolf Man" likely looks better here than it has ever looked anywhere before.

What a wonderful set. Throughout the years I purchased and re-purchased these films. Now, for the very first time, all of these films are beautifully remastered. The Wolf Man and Abbott and Costello Meet Frankenstein are the same as the Universal 100th Anniversary edition - the highest quality version of these films ever released. But now, add to it Frankenstein Meets the Wolf Man, House of Frankenstein and House of Dracula, plus Werewolf of London and She-Wolf of London - all remastered.I recently purchased a Blu-Ray version of Frankenstein Meets the Wolf Man from France. Comparing the French Blu-Ray release to this one this release is top notch. The French release had white dots throughout the frames in the beginning and even a splice in the titles. This release is sharp and clear - free of artifacts and changes in lighting.The worst of this collection - although still fantastic video - is Werewolf of London. Throughout the soundtrack are lots of audio pops, but still, the quality of this print compared to others is high quality.She-Wolf of London (with June Lockhart of Lassie and Lost in Space) is another masterful release in the best quality possible. Sharp and clean, it's a great addition to the collection, although don't expect the same wolfy face you've come to expect in the other werewolf movies.This is the ultimate Wolf Man collection. If you have this in DVD, I highly recommend upgrading to this Blu-Ray edition. You will be thrilled with the quality. Even though there aren't any extras on the Son/Ghost or the triple movie disc except for unmastered theatrical trailers, the value of such high-quality films outweighs the lack of extras.If you're a fan of these classic film, this is a must-buy collection!

Only bad thing was the case itself. It was damaged on the inside. 2 disks fall out of their slots, so now I have to worry about them getting scratched up. I can't stack it like normal. It has to lay flat. Just something to consider, if that would be a deal breaker.

I love the universal monsters and my favorite of them all is the wolfman i was really excited for the dvd to come in and to be perfectly honest the dvd and quality are fine however ive run into an issue if you buy any of the other legacy collections especially Frankenstein and Dracula get prepared to have alot of copies of house of Dracula house of Frankenstein and Abbott and Costello meet Frankenstein.

Amazing collection, my mind is blown how good the picture quality is for movies this old. It's the first time ever I see a Wolf Man movie and I have too say I love the atmosphere, still very watchable movies. Great characters, actors and environments.

Excellent

Superb value, and very good transfers (particularly Frankenstein vs The Wolfman). Underwhelming extras - nothing new here from earlier Bluray releases of the Wolf Man and Abbott & Costello Meet Frankenstein. Bare bones on the others.

Everything a wolfman should be is here.
