Horror Vault's take

Returning to his ancestral Welsh estate after years away, Larry Talbot finds himself drawn into the dark world of local legend when a fateful encounter leaves him marked in a way no doctor can explain. As the full moon rises, Larry must confront something monstrous stirring within him — and the horrifying possibility that the old gypsy superstitions may be all too real. Universal's landmark 1941 production set the template for the modern werewolf myth, weaving gothic atmosphere with genuine pathos. Lon Chaney Jr. delivers a haunted, sympathetic performance that elevates the creature feature into something closer to tragedy.
