(Reviewed by Snake-666) - Great horror comedy!  Chick Young (Abbott) and Wilbur Grey (Costello) are a couple of freight handlers who unwittingly find themselves caught up in a plot by Dracula (Bela Lugosi) to restore Frankenstein's monster (Glenn Strange) back to full health. After a package containing Dracula and Frankenstein's monster is sent from Europe to McDougal's (Frank Ferguson) House of Horrors, Wilbur and Chick are requested to deliver the package to its destination. Wilbur realises that Dracula and the Monster are alive but Chick refuses to believe him, even when Lawrence Talbot (Lon Chaney Jr.) arrives at their door claiming to be the wolfman.

This is certainly one of the more entertaining horror comedies I have witnessed and what this movie lacked in actual horror it more than made up for in humour. The all round class of this movie shines through and gives the movie a definite timeless quality. Abbott and Costello are uproarious as the hapless Chick and Wilbur with so much excellent visual and verbal comedy between the two. Some gags were obvious and some repetitive but the majority showed their unique comic genius. Lou Costello's one line jokes are always spot on and even the poorer jokes can still generate a smile.

Even though the movie has mainly comic overtones it still remains quite an intriguing and proficient horror film though if only in seemingly short bursts. Lugosi, Strange and Chaney Jr. are in excellent form as their respective characters, all of whom provide a commanding on-screen presence and the delightfully dark and menacing musical score during their appearances compliments their performances wonderfully. Although maintaining the comedy throughout the picture the last fifteen minutes present some wonderfully crafted horror and director Charles Barton's finest accomplishment with this film in my opinion.

Delivering a perfect ratio of laughs and chills ‘Abbott and Costello Meet Frankenstein' is a must-see movie in my opinion for all horror movie fans. There really aren't enough ways to describe how good this movie is and even with a select few problems is worth checking out if you get the opportunity. My rating for ‘Abbott and Costello Meet Frankenstein' – 7.75/10.
