Creature is really amazing. It was a great followup to the Universal Horror of the 30s and 40s, taking the atmosphere and heart and bringing it into a more modern context. Visually, philosophically, everything, it's incredible. It and the Wolfman are my absolute favorites, although Bride of Frankenstein has some of the best scenes in the history of horror. Without Universal's contributions, there'd be no horror films that could appeal to any audience.
