No digital effects, blood, gore, just great acting, lighting and makeup effects. That’s why it’s still a hit after 90 years

This was my first time seeing the original movies of the Universal Monster Movies. Both movies are well done, and evident by how well they hold up. The reason my review gets 4 stars is that the venue we went to cut the second movie off in the middle of the climax, and turned on the lights. Someone from our viewing group had to go and fetch a theater worker to start it back up and cut the lights. This was after no intermission in a double feature. Even a 5 minute break would have been great for stretching.
