Ah well - if I had better taste, I wouldn't have watched

RETURN OF THE WOLFMAN (1957)
THE FRANKENSTEIN STORY (1958)
RETURN OF THE MONSTER MAKER (1958)
I WAS A TEENAGE VAMPIRE (1959)
THE SLAVE OF THE VAMPIRE (1959)
REVENGE OF THE TEENAGE VAMPIRE (1960)
DRAG STRIP DRACULA (1962)

...All by Don Glut, all about 5 minutes, all... pretty much have melted into a single indistinct mass of sludge. I probably should've taken some notes, but...  :lookingup:

At least they are (mostly) in focus, unlike his dinosaur/giant monster movies. Some are in B+W, a couple are in color (maybe the color stock was a Christmas gift from his folks one year or something).

All of them have a Wolfman and/or a Frankenstein and/or a Dracula - in a few cases, all three. A prepubescent Igor shows up in an extremely fake beard in a couple of them. One or two might have been intended as sequels to others, but all of them pretty much just seem like remakes of each other.

Mostly it's just tweens in costumes punching each other. At least they have a real Frankenstein mask...

2/5? If Don Glut is your childhood friend and you're wearing the Frankenstein mask or the fake beard. Otherwise........

(I still have at least another half a dozen of these things sitting on my hard drive...) :bluesad:

I'm with Chainsaw on LISA FRANKENSTEIN. Seems like they could have pushed it a lot harder than they did. It was OK, but seemed like a missed opportunity.

I agree that LISA F struggles w/ tone, especially at the end. I still found it funny, engaging, and charming.

But maybe I am watching these movies the wrong way. I remember the stepsister entirely differently than you describe her.  :bouncegiggle: Hated her!

to me this feels like it would fall under 'descriptive name' e.g. 'THE INVISIBLE MAN', but I've never seen the films (not familiar with any of that Marvel based stuff tbh)...

do other characters actually call him "Iron Man" when they're talking to him?

I didn't think any superhero "names" should count, but I wasn't going to say anything. (There was also "Deadpool vs. Wolverine" earlier, and maybe others).
