The scariest comedy of all time YOUNG FRANKENSTEIN celebrates its 50th anniversary with Popcorn Frights on Saturday, January 13 at 10pm!

Paradigm Cinemas: Gateway Fort Lauderdale

The scariest comedy of all time celebrates its 50th anniversary! In this spoof of Mary Shelley's gothic tale, the grandson of Victor Frankenstein, a neurosurgeon, has spent his life living down the legend of his grandfather, even changing the pronunciation of his name. When he discovers his grandfather's diary, he begins to feel differently and returns to the family castle to satisfy his curiosity by replicating his ancestor's experiments. In the process, he creates one very unique monster. Young Frankenstein brings together Mel Brooks’ inimitable style with a hilarious all-star cast of comedy legends, including the late Gene Wilder as Federick Fronkensteen, Marty Feldman as shifty humpback Igor, Teri Garr as the hay-rolling lab assistant Inga, Madeleine Kahn as Dr. Frankenstein’s high-strung fiancée Elizabeth, Peter Boyle as the kind-hearted monster, an uncredited Gene Hackman as the blind man who befriends him, and Cloris Leachman as Frau Blücher. Filming in glorious black and white, Mel Brooks re-created the Frankenstein laboratory using the same equipment from the original Frankenstein, and this loving attention to physical and stylistic detail creates a solid foundation for nonstop comedy. This monstrous comedy masterpiece is so funny, it’s scary!
