Cargo delivery men Bud and Lou receive a long distance call from Lawrence Talbot but before he can tell the nitwits not to open the two recently delivered crates, the full moon rises and he is transformed into a werewolf. The duo deliver the crates to the house of horrors, open them, and unleash Dracula and Frankenstein's monster. Now with the aid of a beautiful doctor who has captured Lou's heart, Dracula aims to place his "pliable" brain into the monster. "Abbott and Costello Meet Frankenstein" is a film with a funny premise that should have been funnier than it is. Many of the gags are uninspired and Costello's constant quipping and mugging grow tiresome. What makes this film worthwhile is the monsters, with Bela Lugosi and Lon Chaney reprising their famed roles.
