Although the original Frankenstein Monster, Boris Karloff, stars in this film...
...the Monster is played this time by actor-stuntman Glenn Strange.
Karloff is the mad scientist who restores the Monster to full power.
Strange, the fourth actor to star as the Monster, is memorable in the role.
In 1942, he played a werewolf in "The Mad Monster."
He would later gain television fame as Butch Cavendish on "The Lone Ranger"...
...and as Sam the Bartender in the 1960s western "Gunsmoke."
Strange enjoyed recounting how Karloff gave him advice on how to play the Monster.
Makeup master Jack Pierce had been searching for a new Monster when he spotted Strange.
The brawny actor's imposing physique and craggy features convinced Pierce he'd found his Monster.
He would play the Frankenstein Monster two more times, in "House of Dracula" (1945)...
...and "Abbott & Costello Meet Frankenstein" (1948).
His likeness adorns much of the Frankenstein Monster merchandise...
...and even accompanied some of Karloff's obituary notices.
I neither own nor claim any rights to this material. Just having some fun with it. Thanks for watching! - Zábava
i truly have to admit glen strange was perfect as the frankenstein monster his movements and facial expressions were very convincing! in just these short clips his presence is huge. i can watch this over and over again.
But they barely let the Monster DO anything in the film! But the scene in which the original Monster stares at his successor is still classic.
He does even less in the next one, "House of Dracula." Strangely enough (so to speak), he gets more screen time in "Abbott & Costello Meet Frankenstein" than in both of the "House" movies put together.
Exactly! Strange was completely underutilized, which is a shame since he was such an imposing figure and had a great look as the monster. He finally got some well-deserved screen time in "AACMF" but that was more comedy than horror. Would loved to have seen him in "Frankenstein Meets the Wolfman".
Glenn Strange was Marvelous as The Frankenstein Monster!!
They should have started Glenn Strange as the Monster in Frankenstein Meets The Wolfman and kept Bela Lugosi as Igor, And should have giving Glenn more screen time.
Ha, I just posted a similar comment!
Glen strange as the monster suited the part great, very scary
I can watch Boris Karloff as the monster but something about Glenn Strange as the monster always scared me lol
I think because we don’t see much of Glenn Frankenstein have more character development
I think the more human monster that Karloff did in The Bride of Frankenstein, helped to remove the sinister aura he had in the first one. Glenn is a more quiet and eerie monster.
3:32 that’s the same scream from Boris Karloff in Son of Frankenstein
The Glenn Strange look is what most people think of when it comes the monsters look. It was the model for most toys and masks!!!
Loved these movies as a kid on creature double feature channel 56 Boston
Of all Universal’s Frankenstein monsters, Strange’s has always been the one I’d least like to run into in a dark hallway.
Thank you
Mr. Glenn Strange, for

Glenn Strange
He had also been a country-western musician in the 1930, playing guitar, banjo, and fiddle.
The greatest Porfle Popnecker video ever! Now I can watch this and Return of Frankenstein as one great Frankenstein monster saga.
I was hoping you'd like it.
@@porflepopnecker4376 With the source material and you at the helm I knew it would be fantastic.
@@louisborselio8608 Cool! :D
Awesome !!
I always thought it was amusing when the monster throws Daniel out the window. He slides down the roof and screams as he falls...15 feet. Worst case scenario, I'm thinking a couple of bruised ribs.
maybe it straightened his back out
20% of fatal falls occur at around 15 feet. 49% of fatalities from falls are between 6 to 20 feet.
very good F monster
dang,,when glenn through igor through that window was the same thing that sent him to the hospital when he through the lady through the window in the abbot and costello movie cuz the wires that were supposed to support the woman broke and glenn hurt his back
Can you do 'Ghost of Frankenstein'?
Did anybody notice the last time Larry turns into the Wolfman his head is full of hair but his hands are not
One of the more famous errors of the Universal horror film series! Earlier, in the same film ,Dracula loses half of his mustache after the carriage crash!
