I went through the majority of the Universal classics...though it gets verry bad:

Dracula-Masterpiece with all of its flaws. 4/4

Spanish version-Better made in every way but drags on too long and is inferior sadly. 3/4

Frankenstein-Masterpiece. 4/4

The Mummy-Masterpiece. 4/4

The Old Dark House-I LOVE JIMMY WHALE. 4/4

The Invisible Man-Masterpiece. 4/4

The Black Cat-Obviously shorn to pieces by censors, made obvious by the ludicrous lack of plotting. Still it's Bela vs. Boris amidst supreme atmosphere, what's not to love? 3/4

Bride of Frankenstein-One of the great American films, one of the best films ever made, arguably the best picture of the 1930's, Whale's masterpiece, and easily by and large the greatest of all horror films. 4/4

Son of Frankenstein-Most underrated Universal horror. A great classic with Lugosi's best performance. 4/4

The Wolf Man-the least of the original monsters, because of plotting and low budgets, TWM excels in atmosphere and character portrayal with Lon Chaney Jr. truly nailing Talbot's accursed existence and Claude Rains performing as the screen's greatest supporting actor. 4/4

Nice reviews! Bold-ed for agreement! Bride Of Frankenstein is my favorite film. James Whale is too wonderful for words. Glad to see someone else giving Son Of Frankenstein some respect. I think it fits right along with the first two and is followed up nicely by Mel Brooks Young Frankenstein.
