I mean, really

[(Anonymous)]

how many black and white movies from the 1930s and 40s do you think most people are generally familiar with? I would be surprised if it was more than a handful

Well, ok, so you only new about the mummy because of the Brendan Fraiser films? Or had you at least heard of the mummy prior to that?

I knew about The Mummy before that, but I'm also an exceptionally huge nerd

I don't think you need to be a nerd, tho. I think you just need to have seen more than 5 episodes of Sccoby Doo as a child. Chances are you'd have encountered most of the Hammer Horror crew.

I agree that people are familiar with werewolves, but I don't think that automatically makes them familiar with The Wolfman.

And, I mean, not to reiterate the point too much, but the Hammer Horror version of the werewolf is Curse Of The Werewolf - which is a werewolf, and not a wolfman. Similarly, as far as I can tell, the only episode of Scooby Doo that has The Wolfman in it (as opposed to a werewolf) is episode 7 of season 1 of The New Scooby-Doo Movies, "Sandy Duncan's Jekyll and Hide", where classic movie monsters interrupt filming of a new movie, guest starring Sandy Duncan, original air date October 21 1972, never released on DVD. Which I kind of doubt that many kids today have actually watched.

This is kind of my point: people are familiar with all kinds of diffuse ideas about werewolves. They're not familiar with the specific monster movie called The Wolfman (or its remake).
