I love The Wolf Man, and I've seen it many times. However, I've only watched it for fun and never really with a critical eye. Why would I want to?

Unfortunately, it also has some camera shadows, a moment of lens flare, plot inconsistencies, and two wooden performances in Lon Chaney, Jr. and Bela Lugosi. I still love it, though, because I'm a sucker for the Universal Monsters, and I give it a passing grade. I watched it on Netflix Instant Streaming. Here's a trailer:
