Young Frankenstein

The scariest comedy of all time!

“The scariest comedy of all time!”

Mel Brooks‘ comic masterpiece YOUNG FRANKENSTEIN (it’s pronounced “Fronken-steen“) is gonna be puttin’ on the ritz all over the Rio’s big screen on Tuesday, October 20.

Respected medical lecturer Dr. Frederick Frankenstein (Gene Wilder) learns that he has inherited his infamous grandfather’s estate in Transylvania. Arriving at the castle, Dr. Frankenstein soon begins to recreate his grandfather’s experiments with the help of servants Igor (Marty Feldman), Inga (Teri Garr) and the fearsome Frau Blücher (Cloris Leachman). After he creates his own monster (Peter Boyle), new complications ensue with the arrival of the doctor’s fiancée, Elizabeth (Madeline Kahn).

“Wilder’s hysteria seems perfectly natural. You never question what’s driving him to it; his fits are lucid and total. They take him into a different dimension — he delivers what Harpo promised.” (New Yorker)
