Reading Chainsaw Midget's review of FRANKNSTEIN MEETS THE WOLFMAN (1943) made me think...what are your favorite monster team ups? Here are my top 10- for various reasons.

1. FRANKENSTEIN MEETS THE WOLF MAN (1943). It's Lon Chaney and Bela Lugosi.
2. HOUSE OF DRACULA (1945)- Dracula, the Monster, and Lon Chaney back. Plus a Mr. Hyde mad doctor and a hunchback nurse, just because- why not?
3. DESTROY ALL MONSTERS (1968)- All Toho monsters in one film!
4. DRACULA VS FRANKENSTEIN (1971)- yeah- it's inane and Dracula has a Mike Brady perm. But I love it.
5. the WEWEWOLF VS THE VAMPIRE WOMAN (1973)- It's bloody, and Paul Naschy's vicous werewolf.
6. KING KONG ESCAPES (1966)- I saw this on Halloween in 1972 at a matinee. Got a soft spot for it.
7. the ROBOT VS THE AZTEC MUMMY (1958)- Dont ask. I couldn't explain.
8. WAR OF THE GARGANTUA's (1966)- I can't explain. They words get stuck in my throat.
9. HOW TO MAKE A MONSTER (1958)- Teenage werewolf and teenage Frankenstein! It's AIP's FRANKENSTEIN MEET THE WOLF MAN!
10. ASSIGNMENT: TERROR (1970)- An obscure Spanish film with the Wolf Man (Paul Naschy). the Frankenstein monster, Dracula, and a mummy! Controlled by invaders from space! Yeh. Weirdly ingrossing.

Anyway- any Monster Mash films you hold dear?

Supernatural?...perhaps. Baloney?...Perhaps not!" Bela Lugosi-the BLACK CAT (1934)

Lugosi-"No. Dracula-never ends."

I like your list, even though there's a few on there I haven't seen (but have been meaning to.)


I'd also like to add...

The Monster Squad
Abbott and Costello Meet Frankenstein
Van Helsing

I also have a soft spot of the 90s House of Frankenstein made for TV movie, which had the monster, a vampire, and a werewolf.



and add Cabin in the Woods if it counts.
