Note: This is an extended summary of the media we discuss in the adjoining episode.

Young Frankenstein is Mel Brooks' take on a classic. The 1974 film that interprets the Mary Shelley's 1818 novel, 'Frankenstein', stars Gene Wilder in the titular role.

This week, we discuss the influence of 'Frankenstein', the movie's interpretation of the original work, the homages it pays to other movies portraying it, and it's interesting brand of comedy.
