Abbott & Costello meet Frankenstein (1948)
|
Wilbur & chick are shipping clerks who are to help transport 2 large crates to a “Horror Museum.” Inside the crates are the bodies of Dracula & Frankenstein’s monster. However one of their enemies, The Wolfman, is coming over from Europe to stop the people instrumental in trying to resurrect the monster and give him a brain that will allow Dracula to exert superb control over it and then take over the world.
Overall: What what can you say about the cast consisting of Lon Chaney Jr., Glenn Strange & Bela Lugosi? How about the addition of Vincent Price? Definitely one of the all-time great comedies, the fact is this is a funny film. It also can be a bit scary and hey, can’t go wrong with greats as the monsters. It’s almost like an all-star game of film greats. It is basically a sequel to 1945’s “House of Dracula” which explains how the monsters got into their coffin predicament in the first place. Great film. Enjoy it. |
