The Walking Dud



He won't stop, though not steady of gait
And the top of his head is a plate
He's the monster, redux
Stuck in nonsense that sucks
One more sloppy retread, made cut-rate.

Béla Lugosi is The Monster, terrifying villagers with his silly walk, in Frankenstein Meets the Wolf Man (Roy William Neill; 1943). David Cairns wins as title-master, walking away.
