- After "Young Frankenstein", this is probably the best-loved horror comedy of all time and is more elaborately produced than the previous two serious Frankenstein films. Bela Lugosi's final turn as Dracula, and his last major studio picture. Great music score by Frank Skinner turned up in numerous subsequent A&C monster rallies.

This movie could have gone so wrong, yet it works beautifully. Glenn Strange is appropriately menacing as the Monster, and Lon Chaney is sympathetic as the tortured Lawrence Talbot. Bela Lugosi is quite sinister as Dracula, but plays the role with just enough of a light touch to be a good foil for Bud and Lou.
One of my favorite Abbott and Costello films. Bela Lugosi back as Dracula in what I think is his last great performance.
"But Costello, we need your brain for the monster".
One of my favorite films ever. . Legosi. Vincent Price. Lon Chaney Jr.
Landis thought this film could use a helicopter decapitation or two.
I gotta see this film!
Forget the Marvel Cinematic Universe, this is the original shared universe with the classic universal monsters.
you heard about the marx btothers. groucho, harpo, chico, baraco.
That was 9 years ago and Landis' politics are clear; and that's ok. But today, many would say that's what happened to Joe Biden.
