Night of the Werewolf (1980)

Probably Naschy's crowning acheivement in the Hombre Lobo series, if not the most successful. Beautiful coloring and atmosphere, with a vintage gothic appeal. The direction in the film is superior to many of the earlier entries, with a more craftsmanly approach in set design and effects. The makeup is fantastic, the only distracting thing is the overly theatrical performances of the vampires. Waldermor Daninsky returns from the grave once again to battle his vampiress master! Recommended to any Gothic horror or werewolf fan!

Rating: 8/10.
