Young Frankenstein (1974)
It's been over four decades, and Mel Brooks still has us laughing. As we mark the 45th anniversary of Young Frankenstein, Jon and Sam discuss the spooky comedy's legacy as one of our latest "Extra Milestone" films. Starring Gene Wilder, Peter Boyle, Marty Feldman, Teri Garr, and many more familiar faces, Young Frankenstein proves that even a parody film can be just as thrilling and satisfying as a bonafide sequel in the Universal Monsters canon. Theme Music: the opening credits of Young Frankenstein, composed by John Morris.
