I don't think I did enough Films from 2024 in, well, 2024.
As such, let me make up for it by covering this Asylum Film from that same year...
This Film, as you can see from the Poster, features a whole host of Universal Movie Monsters...but not quite exactly like they were.They aren't all Public Domain yet folks- sorry.
Dr. Frankenstein is trying to create a super monster.
Dr. Frankenstein is trying to create a super monster.
To do so, he has his creation- aka also Frankenstein (if you're lazy)- take what he needs with little effort from some Monsters.
It literally steals the Mummy's heart, but Dracula brings him back anyways.

Same with The Invisible Man mostly.
I just love stakes- I wish they did!
Can this one Psychic lady/Witch/Romani help him stop the Doctor?

Bear in mind, he somehow doesn't know who Frankenstein is in this Film.
At all.
Can he get his unnamed Monster Squad together to save the day?

They couldn't stop the Monster the first time, so I'm not betting on these guys.
Or will Frankenstein succeed at his mission?

Don't worry- they try.
The Pacing is weird here as we rush through Action Scenes and then prolong Talking Scenes. We also get full maximization of a Set as they go to THE SAME VILLAGE TAVERN at least 4 times in the Film.
The Waitress has no reaction to Dracula or a Mummy either. Thanks for asking.
The Plot is fine. I can't really hate on it too much.
It only features a few things really- Brief Action Scene, Prison Chat with the Monster, Planning, Tavern Scene. Someone hit Ctrl P quite a bit here.
Positives for the Mummy make-up (but not the fact that he wears a burlap outfit), the Dracula make-up, the Frankenstein Monster make-up and there are some creative shots done in After Effects.
Does this make the most of the Premise? No.
Does it suck? No.
Does it suck? No.
