Of ALL the films I saw as a kid; I think "Abbott and Costello Meet Frankenstein" was the one I saw (and enjoyed) the most. These two funny men were on every Sunday morning at 11:30 for years. Though I loved all of their movies; well most of them, this one was my favorite. Thank you for the video😄👍👍.

I was about 6 years or so old and my older Brother (16) took me to the neighborhood movie house to see A & C meet Frankenstein. About 1948/9. I never forgot it. Of course he could not stay to see it because I was hiding on the movie floor behind the seat in front of me crying from fright. My brother is long passed away but I have that memory of us so long and young ago.

@@kimcarothers2203 My intention was to be accurate as possible. We know the movie was released in June of 1948. You'll notice I said "neighborhood" movie house. This was Philadelphia, back then, movies played "downtown" at high priced, first run theaters. Then uptown first run theaters. By the time it got to "my" neighborhood theater it "may" well still have been 1948 or "early" 1949 and "may" have been the second time round of showing. So to be "accurate" I said it was 'ABOUT" 1948/9 that my older "brother took me" to see it.

They tried to get away with only paying Lugosi a few hundred dollars per film as well. However, considering Vincent Price was already an established actor (by the time he offered his voice for the Invisible Man), I could see Universal paying him the same amount they paid Strange and Lugosi (for a few sec of dialogue and *zero* screen time).

Good review. One additional flub you could have mentioned was when Abbott & Costello are down in the dungeon and Costello is trying to tell Abbott that he saw the monsters behind the secret revolving door. It's at the point when Costello is impersonating the monsters he saw, and when they both move to the revolving door, Costello says, "I wanna tell ya Abbott."

One common misconception: Walter Lantz did not do the animation for this movie. Lantz was not at Universal when the movie was made. He was working at United Artists by then. Animation historians have maintained that Dave Fleischer was the animator responsible for the opening credits and the animated bat transformations. Starting in 1945, Fleischer was at Universal for twenty years, doing animated title sequences, shorts, trailers, etc.

I confess apart from Who's on First, I didn't always like their humour. There was also a Laurel & Hardy movie with monsters in it that I watched as a child, I think all the characters were from fairy tales or nursery rhymes.

Released as "Babes in Toyland", the name of the operetta it was based on. The title was changed for TV showings because of conflicts with the Disney version which came out in '59, I believe. In books about L and H, it's still listed by it's original title. Both of these films were favorites of mine as a kid, and I still love them today.

That was a real shame, as far as I'm concerned, without Jack Pierce, there would have been no Westmores. He was a genius.

Always loved this movie, but I've also always wondered where Abbott's character got the name Chic Young, which is that of the cartoonist who created 'Blondie'!

It was there best movie ever. Still just as funny today. Lou was a very hard man to work for. He was funny on screen but not off screen.

@Thomas h, No, you are correct. People often think it's the funny guy who holds an act together but...no straight man to set up and react to the jokes? No 'funny.' There is a documentary on KZbin about A&C doing entertainment work for the government and how the government kinda screwed them over, which lead to a lot of financial troubles for the team. I can't recall the title but it's on here...if it hasn't been removed.

I don't remember where or when, I think it was a special on NBC TV, but someone made a video about the top 10 comedy/horror pictures ever made and A&C Meet Frankenstein wasn't even on the list. Actually, none of their monster movies made the list.
