4.0 out of 5 stars Abbott & Costello Mee the Monsters Collection VHS, November 3, 2002

By 

CBaire "unicorn04" (Santa Ana, CA United States) - See all my reviews

This review is from: Abbott & Costello Meet the Monsters Collection [VHS] (VHS Tape)

This collection consists of Abbott & Costello Meet ...Frankenstein, The Mummy, Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde and The Invisible Man.
The Frankenstein and Invisible Man movies are possibly the best with more cohesive plots and more Abbott & Costello than the other two movies. However, all these movies are winners in my book. All the movies have classic Abbott & Costello repartee and it's great to have all four of these classic monsters with Abbott & Costello in a set!

5.0 out of 5 stars TWO OF LOU and ABBOT's BEST!, September 3, 2000

By 

Long Island, East, member (USA) - See all my reviews

This review is from: Abbott and Costello Meet Frankenstein/Abbott and Costello Meet the Invisible Man [VHS] (VHS Tape)

What makes ABBOT & COSTELLO MEET FRANKENSTEIN dynamic is that Bella Lugosi and Lon Chaney Jr. play the monster roles as straight as their audence expects. They should have received bonuses for restraint! It's funny, scarry, and flies with an active story and creative cast. IN ABBOT & COSTELLO MEET THE INVISIBLE MAN, the boys are fresh out of detective school and looking for a place to start. A famous boxer, Tommy Nelson is wrongfully accused of murder. By a freak lab insident, Tommy is made invisible and needs LOU and ABBOT to find a rat in and out of the boxing ring. You have to see the fight scene with Costello. It roars! Excellent combination.

5.0 out of 5 stars THE BEST OF ABBOTT AND COSTELLO, May 9, 2003

A Kid's Review

This review is from: Abbott & Costello Meet the Monsters Collection [VHS] (VHS Tape)

The best of Abbott and Costello is definitely in this pack!I love Abbott and Costello(as actors)!Not even the 3 stooges can beat the abbott and costello when they meet the monsters!Everyone should have the right to watch the talented Bud Abbott and Lou Costello!There should be more copies!So whoever is reading this that hasn,t seen it I won't spoil it,only give a tiny summary on my favorite one.:
Dr.Jekyll and Mr.Hyde
Slim and Tubby(Bud and Lou)are American cops in London to study police tactics and knowing them,they wind up in jail. They are bailed out by Dr. Jekyll who has been murdering fellow doctors who laugh at his experiments. The boys look to solve the recent murders to get back on the police force. The serum ends up into the system of Tubby and several police officers, causing many Hyde's running around London.
