I'm big into horror. Love the 1974 movie Young Frankenstein, especially, because of its unique story and all the history that comes with it. But what I love most about it is that it has comedy elements too, due to the great directing of Mel Brooks and acting of Gene Wilder.
Horror movies are the best!
I agree, and horror/comedy films are such a unique combination... With the movie centered on the title character being a descendant of the popular Dr. Victor Frankenstein, and having actor Peter Boyle star as the monster.. It had great actors in it, and they did a great job making it a parody of classic horror films.
Isnt the monster called Frankensteins monster? i always get it confused
You're right! And you're not the only one.. it's a popular misconception.But anyway, if you want to give the 1970s movie a shot, you should know going into it that it's still black and white.. Mel Brooks decided on that stylistic preference despite the 70s offering color by that time because he wanted a certain atmosphere for the film that matches earlier works. I think it works here.
