I had many of these Castle films in my 8mm and Super8 collection back in the day and A&C meet Frankenstein was my favorite of them all and you did an excellent recreation here Hamiltonpl.
At the very end, when the cigarette rises into the air "by itself" and you hear the voice of Vincent Price saying "I'm the invisible man" and laughs. That was awesome. Wonder how much he got for the "uncameo"😂
VINCENT PRICE TOLD MIKE DOUGLAS ONE TIME THIS FILM ONLY HAD HIS VOICE BUT YEARS LATER BECAUSE OF THIS THE PRODUCER OF "THE FLY " HIRED HIM BECAUSE HE LOVED HIS END SCENE WITH NO PICTURE JUST A CIGARETTE.
This is great. I had thought about editing This Abbott and Costello movie to play like a real Frankenstein movie. Removing as much of the comedy as possible. You did a great job.
Believe it or not someone posted their top 10 horror comedies on Facebook and did NOT include A&C Meet Frankenstein - probably the greatest horror comedy of all time.
TRUE AND BETTER THAN THAT BELA LUGOSI, LON CHANEY AND GLEN STRANGE PLAYED THERE CHARACTERS STRAIGHT DOWN THE LINE. IT NOT ONLY GAVE NEW MOVIE POWER TO ABBOTT AND COSTELLO BUT BELA LUGOSI, LON CHANEY AND GLEN STRANGE WERE AGAIN PUSHED UP IN ACTOR STATUS
I used to buy these short 8mm movie reels when I was a kid, but they were generally without sound (my small projector had no sound available). But this is a really welcome addition to my Samsung library of movies since this is one of my all-time favorites. Thanks for the download!
I still have this reel - and I JUST bought a new projector! Now I wanna watch it again, as well as the other 20 A & C reels I have! (BTW - nice touch with the "film clack" SFX)
If I'm not mistaken, the guy playing Frankenstein's monster was Glenn Strange, who for many years was the bartender at Miss Kitty's Long Branch saloon on "Gunsmoke."
In that movie the monster was also played by Lon Chaney Jr.; A small part in the laboratory (around 6:13). due to a small accident that happenned to Strange. Chaney graciously accepted to replaced him.
My favorite A&C movie hands down ! Plus the fact i wenf into labor with my daughter while watching it at home around 11:00pm on a Saturday night. I would laugh at the movie then grunt during a contraction. My sister kept looking at me when I would geunt and I finally told her it was Hospital time. 🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰
The Filmmakers knew this was the End of an Era...so they took the sets, makeup & costumes seriously...The Monsters were given a Respectful Send Off 🧛🏻♂️🧟♂️🐺
I bought this 8mm film out from a monster magazine. I remember for a English class exam in high school I played it for thè class and they enjoyed it and passed my exam
Two comedy masters, a bunch of monsters and bad people...and, at the very last-The Invisible Man! What a movie! It's a fun frolic through danger and comedy, like no other! This movie gets a perfect 10 out of 10 score from me!
A great cast from the 1930's Bela Lugosi, Lon Chaney Jr. And good ole Abbott and Costello 😅 A funny movie to watch with family and a tub of popcorn 🍿.😊
AT CHRISTMAS TIME WHEN I WAS 9 YEARS OLD. MY MOM AND DAD BOUGHT ME A SILENT 8MM PROJECTOR AND SCREEN AND THREE OF THES FILMS FROM CASTLE FILMS AND THIS ONE HERE AND 2 OTHER ABBOTT AND COSTELLO FILMS WHERE THEY MET THE MUMMY ABD HOLD THAT GHOST. YEARS LATER THEY GAVE ME THE REST OF THE ABBOTT AND COSTELLO FILMS FOR OTHER CHRISTMAS'S AND MY BIRTHDAYS. I LOVED MY MOM AND DAD SO MUCH AND I MISS THEM . HOD BLESS YOU BOTH UP THERE WITH GOD NOW AND BROTHER BOB TO.
They intended to replace the monster's abnormal brain with Lou's so then he would leap through windows in fear rather than throw other people through windows... hmm. Nice clear picture though, good job.
@@MeanMrMayo people have uploaded 8mm versions of other films that doesn't have the projector sound. I'm only asking if it was possible to get a 8mm version without the sound otherwise no big deal, just thought I'd ask. No need for the snarky attitude.
When I was a kid I knew there was something off about the scene when Frankenstein pushes the table and started to swing his arms it was Cheney not Glenn strange playing the monster
Somehow during the early 1960s it seems that it was GLENN STRANGE’s portrayal of the Monster that ended up on point of sale items advertisements etc. Clearly A&C MEET FRANKENSTEIN was a huge fan favorite for Monster kids in the 60s. Glenn Strange played the ‘monster’ 3 times only in released movies - the other two were HOUSE OF FRANKENSTEIN and HOUSE OF DRACULA. All 3 were mash ups with all Monsters…..
@@Robin-si3vw I wasnt fortunate enough to have a sound projector back then, but I had countless silent castle horror films that I ordered from the back of famous monsters.
The Vincent Price one-liner at the end was icing on the cake.
Funny thing is, Vincent Price isn't in the film "Abbott and Costello meet the Invisible Man".
It may have been in conjunction with his role as the title character in The Invisible Man Returns.
It truly is funny and enjoyable! WF-😎🤩😉✌️👌😍
@@philipdefibaugh5683 Too bad. That would have been perfect.
A voice that is definitely missed what an amazing talent he had
It's amazing how much they can fit into 8 minutes.
I remember as a young boy watching this movie on the Early show every Halloween. 😊 Great memories.
I'd watch this movie on Channel 11 when I was a kid. Classic.
WPIX Channel 11 out of NYC.
LUGOSI was spot on in this film. Listen to the way he delivers dialogue. He was a master at his craft.
60 years old this year 2024 and remember watching this on TV in black and white in the late 60s and early 70s. This will never ever get old for me!! 👍
great job phil! funny how frankenstein walks right into the fire when he's afraid of it in every other movie-lol
Lol, so true
Friend, good… fire, no good!

A nicely condensed version of this comedy classic. And I still think the poor nurse got a very raw deal in the end.

For a comedy he sure had some great suspenseful moments what a great all star cast

If I'm not mistaken, the guy playing Frankenstein's monster was Glenn Strange, who for many years was the bartender at Miss Kitty's Long Branch saloon on "Gunsmoke."
Glenn Strange also played the Monster in House of Frankenstein and House of Dracula.
Marshall Dillion was the Thing from outer space.
@@speedracer1945 Yes he was. By the way, say hi to Racer X for me.
In that movie the monster was also played by Lon Chaney Jr.; A small part in the laboratory (around 6:13). due to a small accident that happenned to Strange. Chaney graciously accepted to replaced him.
You
Are right
What a terrific job at recreating the classic digest from yesteryear
❤❤. Love Abbott and Costello movies! ✨🌟👏👏👏
Fascinating. I've always thought those old 8mm home films were neat
i remember buying 8mm castle horror movies at twin-fair & two guys department stores
Mine didn't have sound .
@speedracer1945 Right, I remember reading the subtitles, and the first time I saw this in tv with sound and music, I was thrilled.
We use to pop popcorn and stay up late for these episodes LOL what a treasure
If Imnot mistaken, Glenn Strange broke his ankle and Lon Chaney played the monster when he threw the lady doctor out the window.
CORRECT
This makes me happy.
Thank you.
I'll Always Love you Hayden Panettiere

I used to have this one, but it was the silent version - one of my Top 5 favorite movies!
Me too. had the silent 8mm. Wore it plumb out!!!
Vincent Price as the Voice of the Invisible Man was perfect.
This is a great 16mm sound short castle made maybe 20 Abbott and Costello shorts from there movies. Bring back memories
I STILL HAVE THEM ALL BOUGHT BY MOM AND DAD FOR ME ON CHRISTMAS AT AGE 9

Just one question. Is this a exact recreation (scene by scene) of the castle 8mm release? (Nice work either way)
It's pretty close but not exact.
I had the super 8 silent version in the '60s
So did I
Top 3 movies of all time. My list
This movie scared my mom BIG time when she saw it as a kid.
I too as a kid as I hid behind a chair everytime the monster was shown .
I had this on super 8 sound, I sold it on ebay in the 90s
Great Movie
Lol me and my dad watched there films when I was a kid. Lol.
They intended to replace the monster's abnormal brain with Lou's so then he would leap through windows in fear rather than throw other people through windows... hmm. Nice clear picture though, good job.
This is great !!!
These are classics these are famous and classic universal monsters
Thanks i like kind scared and funny movies Abbot and Cottello
Yup Glen Strange was the monster!! Great cast all around Inc Bella Lagousi
Anyone else notice they DIDNT move when Abbott was rowing lol
If you look closely, the boat was tied to the dock.

Appricate the effort but do you think it all at possible to upload a version without the projector sound?
That's what adds to the feel of those old days. Watch a DVD or Blu-ray if you don't want projector sound.
@@MeanMrMayo people have uploaded 8mm versions of other films that doesn't have the projector sound. I'm only asking if it was possible to get a 8mm version without the sound otherwise no big deal, just thought I'd ask. No need for the snarky attitude.
The projector is part of the charm.
@@hamiltonpl not for me. Just thought I'd ask though... no worries.
When I was a kid I knew there was something off about the scene when Frankenstein pushes the table and started to swing his arms it was Cheney not Glenn strange playing the monster
This is great, but the sound of the film chattering in the background is annoying.
I never understood why it's said that Lugosi was the best Dracula...I don't find him scary or convincing at all...Lee was INCREDIBLE...
True. But it was two separate times in history. For the time nobody beat Bela. Almost 30 years later. No one beat Chris Lee.
was the familiar image of Frankenstein first inspired by this movie?
Somehow during the early 1960s it seems that it was GLENN STRANGE’s portrayal of the Monster that ended up on point of sale items advertisements etc. Clearly A&C MEET FRANKENSTEIN was a huge fan favorite for Monster kids in the 60s.

Why only 8 minutes? Post the entire movie if you can. “Hold that Ghost” too!
The purpose of this was to create a duplicate shot by shot of the castle films release.
I haven’t seen some of this from the film ?
Was the Invisible Man there the whole time?
Yes! You can not see him in many scenes...
You know if someone were to just get Lawrence talbot an almanac…
Classic!!!🤣🤣👍👍
Wasn't it silent?
The version on which this re-creation was based on was silent, although Castle Films also released a 16mm/super 8 sound version of this film.
@@Robin-si3vw I wasnt fortunate enough to have a sound projector back then, but I had countless silent castle horror films that I ordered from the back of famous monsters.
Comment faire pour la traduction en français
Yep it wasn't Boris Karloff but the actor from a Western t.v. show.
verey good film *****
When did they call each other chic and Wilbur?
Throughout the whole movie
Why did Sam Chuck the hot broad out the window?😮 What would Marshall Dylan say?!!!🤓😎✌🏻
It’s tough being a bartender….. but it was actually Lon Chaney Jr - Glenn hurt his back and could not do the scene…
Glenn strange was the monster
Who said that???😂😂😂😂👍🏿👍🏿👍🏿👍🏿
If you watch a movie called edd wood,with johnny depp ,they show you lugosi story
Lugosi was the best
Dracula: sally
Quasimodo: master the plan
Turn off that stupid projector sound
Dracula exity quasimodo
How the fudge is this a “recreation”? It’s the same damned actors.
This isn't 8mm. It's obviously a 35mm print that you have reedited.
Actually no. Right off of the Blu-ray
