A Reluctant Film Critic Presents
One of the looniest horror comedies ever made, ABBOTT AND COSTELLO MEET FRANKENSTEIN follows the hapless pair as they become hopelessly enmeshed in Dracula’s schemes, dodge Frankenstein’s Monster, and team up with the Wolfman. This bonkers blending of comedy duo hijinks and Universal Monster atmospherics helped to resuscitate the careers of all involved–including the studio.
Double feature with THE BOY WITH GREEN HAIR
Film author and educator, Gerald Peary, will be on hand to introduce these two beloved films from his childhood and sign copies of his memoir, A Reluctant Film Critic.
