    Frankenstein Double Feature: One ticket is good for both features when viewed back-to-back on the same day.

     

    Frankenstein: Boris Karloff, Colin Clive. Directed by James Whale.

     

    Boris Karloff stars as the screen's most memorable monster in what many consider to be one of the greatest horror films ever made. Dr. Frankenstein dares to tamper with life and death by creating a human monster out of lifeless body parts. James Whale's adaptation of the Mary Shelley novel blended with Karloff's compassionate portrayal of a creature groping for identity that makes Frankenstein a true masterpiece.

     

     

    Abbott & Costello Meet Frankenstein: Bud Abbott, Lou Costello, Lon Chaney, Jr., Bela Lugosi, Glenn Strange. Directed by Charles Barton.

     

    Two hapless frieght handlers find themselves encountering Dracula, the Frankenstein Monster and the Wolf Man. A high point in the careers of Abbot and Costello, this film was also Bela Lugosi’s final “A” film.
