Abbott and Costello Meet Frankenstein!

[Figuremod73]

Universal had stopped making horror films of this type by that time. Thats when i guess it became a big hit on television.

[MIB41]

I thought it was the opposite...it was the end of the golden age of the monster mash and the classic Universal monster cycle.

I love the movie...especially seeing the Wolf Man chasing a scared Dracula...my kinda scene...punkass vampires...

That is correct. It was technically the last film using an existing storyline with the Universal monsters. They also wrote some novels as a continuation of that film back in the 90's, for those who wonder what might have happened. They're actually pretty good too. I think I have three of them.

It's a great movie. Wonderful balance of comedy and horror.
THIS tv has been airing it. It was on today for uh, Thanksgiving.

[ANTONY-S]

Oh man I've never watched that...just looked at some hd clips on YouTube , brilliant. We had a comedy duo in the 80's called , cannon and ball and they clearly have based themselves on bud and Lou....

[MegoMark71]

What memories this thread has brought back. Every Saturday morning it was Bud and Lou and Tarzan movies oh and wrestling.

[Werewolf]

Great movie. It was a fun, silly, spooky, movie and the Monsters were still threated with respect. It's a classic.

Just finished watching it on Thistv great film they were doing a Marathon today,Abbott and Costello meet the Mummy,The Invisble Man and Frankenstein

[MEMEGO]

A true classic, movies like this are not made any more. I must have seen this about 20 times or more when, I was a child, I remember seeing them on sunday mornings, they ran Abbott and Costello movies every sunday on ch 11. I saw some of it on ThisTV today.

Hey me too

Mego should have made a box set of the Abbott and Costello Meet Frankenstein dolls! (Bud, Lou, Frankie, Dracula, Wolfman, Invisible Man, etc)

I always dreamed that mego would have done that....wish someone would do it now......

[RickD]

If the Abbott and Costello mego set was ever made, that probably could have been more valuable than any other mego (AE/SI, RM Robin, etc)

Would have been highly collectible......I'm amazed how many Abbott and Costello fans I've met over the years and you would be competing against non toy collectors.....

Abbott and Costello were a huge part of my childhood as it may have been for many people who watched them on Sunday morning on WPIX and during the week when they gave the Abbott and Costello show.........
