After years of trying to overcome his infamous family's reputation, a 'serious' young neurosurgeon, Dr. Frederick Frankenstein (Gene Wilder), inherits a castle from his grandfather, Dr. Victor von Frankenstein. Dr. Frederick finds an amusing hunchback, Igor (Marty Feldman), a pretty lab assistant named Inga (Teri Garr) & an the older housekeeper, Frau Blücher (Cloris Leachman). Young Dr. Frankenstein has long felt that his grandfather's fixation on creating a human is lunacy. However . . . as Frederick rummages through mad old grandad's book on his infamous incarnation experiment, the young neurosurgeon begins to have second thoughts about being heir to the experiment itself. While this (1974) Mel Brooks directed & Gene Wilder screenplay adaptation of teenager, Mary Shelly's (1817) classic (& now campy) horror story, turned by famous gay film director, James Whale into a (1931) horror flick, pays homage to such a illustrious past, this is a parody through which Brooks & Wilder have become known for this kind of slick wit. I feel it's the best of both Brooks' & Wilder's works. Their supporting cast is to drawer & purrrfect. It was done in black & white in the 1974 version to give it that old time horror flick feel about it. In DVD form it's in color.Read full review
This is a classic Mel Brooks movie and as funny today as it was in 1974. Similar to Monte Python and the Holy Grail and Princess Bride, it is full of classic scenes that are oft repeated by folks sitting around the campfire while sharing some adult beverages. Released in black and white and featuring Peter Boyle in on of his most memorable performances as the monster, the movie stars Gene Wilde, Teri Garr, Marty Feldman, Madeline Kahn, Cloris Leachman and Gene Hackman in a wonderful, rare comedic role. The movie ranks as one of the funniest comedy films of all time and there is nothing to not like. If you like your comedy, this movie is a must for any serious film buff.
A fun movie that our family enjoys in the Halloween season. Humour is always a good thing and this movie has lots of it!!
