Plot

edit

Doctor Strange brings Hulk to New York City to assist fighting rampaging monsters on Halloween night, which were young teens stuck dreaming and changed into the monsters that they fear. During battle, Hulk randomly reverts to an unconscious Bruce Banner. Doctor Strange planned a trip to the Dream Dimension with the Hulk to get to the bottom of the monsters while confronting Nightmare. Before this happens, they call upon the Howling Commandos (consisting of Jasper Sitwell's zombie form, Man-Thing, Vampire by Night / Nina Price, Warwolf, and Minotaur / Benito Serrano) to watch over their physical forms and contain the rampaging monsters. Banner and Hulk split for their trip to other dimension with Banner using the dream version of Iron Man's Hulkbuster armor.

Reception

edit

Joe Garza of /Film stated, "While this is primarily a Hulk flick, the inclusion of Doctor Strange and the haunted heroes of the Howling Commandos makes Hulk: Where Monsters Dwell an absolute blast."[18] Gab Hernandez of Screen Rant included Hulk: Where Monsters Dwell in their "8 Best Adaptations of Doctor Strange In Movies and TV" list, writing, "While the movie is definitely more of a fun monster mash than a strong narrative, that's totally fine for a comic book movie meant for kids."[19]

Johnny Brayson of Bustle ranked Hulk: Where Monsters Dwell 10th in their "19 Best Animated Movies On Netflix Right Now" list.[20] Ben Silverio of ScienceFiction.com gave Hulk: Where Monsters Dwell a grade of 3.5 out of 5 and called it a "solid Halloween cartoon overall," saying, " It’s a lot of fun and action-packed, while being a bit edgier than what’s on TV so as to give older fans just as much reason to check it out with or without their little True Believers."[21]
