Summary: Can't rate what i don't have..
Comment: I ordered this dvd from another seller listed with Amazon. I ordered this dvd on Oct. 19th. To date i still have not received it. I have sent several emails to the seller and to Amazon and have had no contact from the seller yet. I will never order from a seller listed with Amazon again. If i can't get it directly from Amazon, then i guess i just don't need it.

Summary: "Soon the moon will be out and I'll turn into a wolf." "You and 20 million other guys!"
Comment: Before GHOSTBUSTERS there was ABBOTT & COSTELLO MEET FRANKENSTEIN! The last harrah for the original Universal monsters -- not to be seen until the Hammer revival a decade later. Amazingly, despite his identification with Count Dracula, Lugosi only played the character in the 1931 original and this movie. Glenn Strange (best remembered as the bartender of the Long Branch in the tv series GUNSMOKE) returns as the Monster, Lon Chaney Jr as Larry Talbot, the Wolfman. Never mind why he is after Dracula, it doesn't matter. It doesn't matter how Dracula's female assistant discovered poor Wilbur. This is a laugh fest with a few old fashioned frights along the way. "Ohhhhhhhhh, Chick!" This film also reworks one gag from HOLD THAT GHOST, the moving candle, this time on Dracula's coffin. Extras include a 40+ minute documentary on the making of this movie, commentary by a film historian and production pics and posters. Classic lines --
Wilbur: It's gonna cost you extra because I'm a union man and I only 16 hours.
Mr. McDougal: A union man only works eight hours!
Wilbur: I belong to two unions.

Summary: OHHHHHHHHHHHH Chick
Comment: Chick:I know there is no such thing as Dracula and you know there is no such thing as Dracula,
Wilber: Yea, but does Dracula know it!!
Also many people don't know this movie made the most money for Universal that year. Some much for smart executives who said old monsters and comedians are washed up.
Customer Rating:
Summary: Another Universal classic!
Comment: I enjoyed the movie, again, and the special features, which I hadn't seen before. While a comedy, as best I can remember, this was the last movie to feature the classic monsters with traditional actors playing them.
Customer Rating:
Summary: good Abbott and Costello
Comment: This movie is a bit dated, but it's always fun to watch Abbott and Costello.
