Review of Bud Abbott and Lou Costello Meet Frankenstein (1948) by John T — 22 Oct 2011
I haven't seen an Abbot and Costello movie for over thirty years . When I was a kid they were the staple diet for my TV viewing . I wondered if they were as good as I remembered and if my kids would like it in today's modern age.
Abbot and Costello meet Frankeinstien is regarded as one of their better movies and I vaguely remember it from my childhood.
Firstly let me say , Lou Costello still makes me laugh . He made my kids laugh too which is a good thing . Sadly the film does not stand the test of time too well.
The special affects , while good in the 1940's don't impress now and the storyline drifts all over the place.
It was a little too long to keep my kids totally engrossed but still , I'm sure they liked it .
If you have not seen an Abbot and Costello movie , you should. it's not a nice thought to think a man as funny as Lou Costello will eventually be forgotten.
