Young Frankenstein, 1974

Gloriously silly spoof of the Universal Frankenstein horror films of the 1930s, co-written by director Mel Brooks and star Gene Wilder. Taking elements from Shelley's novel and the three films that typify the genre (1931's Frankenstein, 1935's The Bride Of Frankenstein and 1939's Son of Frankenstein), Brooks delivers the comic goods in abundance with numerous gags and one-liners.
