A Limited Edition Art Print (with art by Jonathan Burton; 4/225; measures 24" x 36" [61 x 91 cm]) (Learn More) The Wolf Man, the 1941 George Waggner Universal werewolf monster horror thriller (written by Curt Siodmak; about the son of a Welsh nobleman who returns to Wales after many years in America, and things start out well when he and his father reconcile, but then he meets a beautiful girl at a carnival, and a gypsy fortune teller sees the sign of a wolf on her palm, and soon after, she is bitten by a wolf, and the man tries to save her, but she is killed, and he manages to kill the wolf, but is bitten during the process, and later, the gypsy turns up dead, and the man is the primary suspect, and that is only the beginning of his massive problems!) starring Claude Rains, Warren William, Ralph Bellamy, Patric Knowles, Bela Lugosi (as Bela), Maria Ouspenskaya, Evelyn Ankers, and Lon Chaney Jr. (in the title role "as 'The Wolf Man'"/Lawrence Talbot). Note that this was the only classic 1940s original Universal monster (the others originated in the 1930s). Actually, however, there WAS a 1930s Universal werewolf before this, which was in 1935's "Werewolf of London", but Universal did not like the way Henry Hull's makeup looked in that movie, so they restarted the character in this movie, with completely different makeup! In addition, they had the great fortune to hire screenwriter Curt Siodmak to come up with an original screenplay, and unlike several past classic Universal horror movies, this was not based on a classic story, but instead was a Siodmak original, and it was brilliantly written and has been imitated countless times since!
