this film start off hilariously bad . first and there be some little prologue about vampire curse and the frankenstein family become be wolf now they be the wolfsteins . then and a the film open and you see a ball at which point and two men do a lot of exposition in other word and through their conversation ( which sound totally fake ) and they explain all the back story . it really dumb and a terrible way of film making and bode very poorly for the rest of the film . soon and satanism be toss into the mix . about the only thing not in the first 3 5 minute of the film be mummy or zombie and i hold on wait to see if they and too and would be in the movie . well and soon two old lady begin talk again and it be all exposition . they talk and talk about count waldemar daninsky tell all about him and his family and etc . couldn not someone in the film have a normal conversation that be not tell the audience the back story of various character . sloppy . very and very sloppy . a bit later and a gypsy and his very buxom girlfriend be strand in the rain . the count advise them to take cover in a nearby castle wolfstein castle . once there and they begin look the old and seemingly abandon home . they take to open up family tomb and rob the dead . however and one corpse look pretty fresh and when they remove the silver cross like dagger and he come to life a a wolf man and kill them . it be a neat scene at least until the end and when the lady spasmodically writhe like a go go dancer who be magnetize to the wall . pretty dumb . after these two get tear to piece and the villager and the count go look for the wolf that supposedly do this grisly deed . the count be bite during the hunt . and he curse to be a be guy . soon we see count waldemar turn into a be wolf in one of the bad transformation scene i have see . the be wolf of london and the wolf man do this much good several decade earlier . his friend try to help him through this and but they seem powerless to do anything . a bit later and dr. janos mikhelov and his wife arrive . they claim to be able to perhaps cure waldemar . in the meantime and they chain him up so he can not hurt anyone a prudent thing that they never seem to get around to do in other film . but and unfortunately and it not because they be saint . on the contrary and they be satanist who wish to use their unearthly power to turn waldemar into a servant of satan . if this doesn not sound dumb enough and later you learn that the mikhelovs be and in fact and vampire satanist . and and in a never end need to fee and make more vampire and they decide to make the move on waldemar friend . in the end and waldemar take on the satanist vampire and it and of course and a fight to the death ( or at least and death for the undead ) . overall and the story be bizarre and suffers from the kitchen sink approach they toss everything into the plot and hope it all work . it isn not a terribly inspired approach and the dialog bog the film down horribly . however and the film do have creepy music and a nice creepy look to it and so for the less demanding horror fan out there and there be probably enough to merit see it . all others and though and should stick to the good monster film from universal and hammer they be light year ahead of this one .
