The Werewolf Versus the Vampire Woman

Paul Naschy's Waldemar Daninsky, the tragic Spanish werewolf, at his most enjoyable. Two students seeking the tomb of a medieval vampire countess inadvertently revive her, and only Daninsky, cursed to become a wolf, can stop her, in a film that piles gothic atmosphere and monster action together with real conviction.

Naschy wrote it himself, as he did most of his vehicles, and his sincere love of the Universal monster tradition shows. It is one of the most popular entries in his long werewolf series.

A fine introduction to Spain's one-man monster factory, and a atmospheric gothic.
