Young Frankenstein
Young Frankenstein, the scariest comedy of all time, come to CULTPLEX to celebrate the incomparable Mel Brooks’ 100th birthday!
A young neurosurgeon (played by Gene Wilder in one of cinema’s greatest comedic performances of all time) inherits the castle of his grandfather, the famous Dr. Victor von Frankenstein. In the castle he finds a funny hunchback, a pretty lab assistant and the elderly housekeeper. Young Frankenstein believes that the work of his grandfather was delusional, but when he discovers the book where the mad doctor described his reanimation experiment, he suddenly changes his mind.
Featuring a slew of immortal gags, Young Frankenstein remains one of the greatest screen comedies ever made: an affectionate tribute to classic monster movies and a masterclass in comic precision from one of cinema’s all-time great joke machines.
