Abbott and Costello Meet Frankenstein
Universal teams up popular comedy duo Abbott and Costello with their classic monsters for one of the greatest horror comedies of all time, Abbott and Costello Meet Frankenstein! Laughs and chills fill the screen when baggage clerks Chick Young (Bud Abbott) and Wilbur Grey (Lou Costello) find themselves delivering crates containing the bodies of Count Dracula (Bela Lugosi) and the Frankenstein monster (Glenn Strange), as the Wolf Man (Lon Chaney Jr.) tries to help them escape Dracula’s plan to steal Wilbur’s brain!
“[Abbott and Costello‘s] finest onscreen hour comes in the shape of this wonderful horror spoof which also unites all of Universal’s scariest horror heroes under the same cinematic roof.” – Film4
