Frankenstein's Bloody Terror is a 1968 Spanish werewolf film starring Paul Naschy.While taking refuge in a mysterious castle, a gypsy couple winds up awakening a werewolf while robbing the crypts. Joining a hunt to stop what is thought to be just murderous wolves, Count Waldemar Daninsky encounters the werewolf and is bitten before managing to kill it with a silver cross. Now, Waldemar is cursed with lycanthropy. Desperately seeking a cure, he contacts Dr. Janos Mikhelov, a German occultist. However, Janos has secrets of his own, and plans for Waldemar...The film had eleven 'sequels', some with tenuous continuity to those before but all became self-contained starting with the sixth film, featuring a werewolf named Waldemar Daninsky: The Nights of the Wolf Man (1968, currently lost and may not have actually existed) The Monsters of Terror/Assignment Terror (1969) The Fury of the Wolf Man (1970) Walpurgis Night/The Werewolf vs. The Vampire Woman (1970) Dr. Jekyll and the Wolf Man/Dr. Jekyll vs. the Werewolf (1971) The Return of Walpurgis/Curse of the Devil (1973) The Curse of the Beast/Night of the Howling Beast (1975) The Return of the Wolf Man/The Craving (1980) The Beast and the Magic Sword (1983) Licantropo/Lycathropus: The Moonlight Murders (1996) Tomb of the Werewolf (2004)This film was distributed in Canada by Columbia Pictures and has received a DVD release by Shriek Show.

comment
The Sociopath: Dr. Janos Mikhelov and his wife Vanessa, two vampires who see other people's supernatural curses as opportunities to experiment on them, not caring how much pain their victims go through. They show no real care for each other beyond a shared fascination for science, and think nothing of dominating the minds of bystanders to keep their plans going.

comment
Non-Indicative Name: The film has nothing to do with Frankenstein, instead being a werewolf movie. Originally called The Mark of the Wolf Man, the American distributors bought it and changed the name because movie theaters were promised a Frankenstein double feature and they couldn't get another Frankenstein movie to pair with Dracula vs. Frankenstein.

Sealed Evil in a Can: Imre Wolfstein was stabbed in the heart with a silver cross, which put him in stasis, and locked in a coffin. Him being freed sets off the film's plot.

Barefoot Captives: Waldemar's girlfriend, Janice, is barefoot and in her nightgown when the vampire Janos Mikhelov attempts to spirit her away at the climax, though due to sloppy editing, she can be briefly spotted wearing sandals in one scene.

Downer Ending: Waldemar is rescued and destroys the vampires holding him captive, but he is killed in his werewolf form by his girlfriend (strangely, while he is just standing around doing nothing menacing).

Big Bad Ensemble: Imre Wolfstein, the werewolf who turned Waldemar in the first place, and Dr. Janos Mikhelov, a vampire occultist taking advantage of the horrors to study lycanthropy, are operating completely independently and equally earn Waldemar's ire.

Our Vampires Are Different: These have the ability to seduce people with a look, keeping them in a trance until they're let free or their master is destroyed. When they're killed, their flesh dissolves into mist until only bones are left.

comment
Predecessor Villain: A couple centuries before all the werewolf business, a group of monks did Satanic rites near the village where the film is set. A plague killed them all, and their only effect on the plot is that their occult library remains in the old monastery, thus giving Waldemar something to look for a cure in.

Too Dumb to Live: Gyogyo and Nascha the gypsies. They open a centuries-old crypt, find a perfectly-preserved man lying inside with a silver cross sticking out of him. What do they do? Pull the cross out to steal it. They are violently murdered moments later by the resurrected werewolf.

Famous Ancestor: The American version adds opening narration that claims that the Wolfsteins are related to Victor Frankenstein, in a hasty attempt to justify the title.

Our Werewolves Are Different: These turn others any time they draw blood, have a black star on their bodies as a sign of their curse, and can only be killed by silver piercing their heart, sent there by somebody who loves them. Otherwise, they're put into stasis until the silver is removed.
