4K UHD Review – The Werewolf vs. The Vampire Woman

Paul Naschy had a dream, questing to share his love of genre entertainment with the world, making it his duty to help create pictures highlighting the struggles of monsters and madmen. For 1971's "The Werewolf vs. The Vampire Woman," Naschy (who stars and co-scripts with Hans Munkel) returns to play Waldemar Daninsky, offering his fifth take on the character and his struggles with lycanthropy, newly positioned in an old monastery that also houses the remains of an ancient vampiric witch who's ready to conquer the world. Naschy loves to put on a creepy show, and "The Werewolf vs. The Vampire Woman" is suitably atmospheric and happy to showcase some graphic encounters. Like most Naschy productions, there's not a rip-roaring level of suspense, but his dedication to reviving the Universal Horror and Hammer Films experience is interesting to watch, showing impressive commitment to slow-burn terror and exploitation.
