...seems that we're unanimous on "Abbott & Costello Meets Frankenstein"; however, I absolutely love "Naughty Nineties" as well, not only because it is a very funny film, but also, is has the funniest and most complete version of "Who's on First?"...
...an interesting little tidbit on "A&C Meet Frankie"; although Lon Chaney, Jr. was specifically cast as The Wolfman, and Glenn Strange as the Frankenstein Monster, did you know that Lon Chaney actually played both roles, at one point in the movie??? It was in the lab scene, where Dracula and the Wolfman were fighting at both ends of gurney bed, with poor Lou Costello laying on the bed, strapped down, and they chased each other out of the lab, leaving Lou on the spinning bed. Just as the bed stopped spinning, and Lou thought that he was safe, he looked over to one of the other gurney beds, just in time to see the Frankenstein monster breaking his bonds, climbing off the table and lumbering toward Lou. If you look real close.....that's Lon Chaney as the monster!!! Apparently, Glenn Strange had sprained his back, at one point, and could not perform in that particular scene; since Lon Chaney had already played the monster before, in "Ghost of Frankenstein", and was definitely tall enough, the producer and director decided to put Chaney in the scene, instead......
It would have to be A & C meet Frankenstein...the part when Dracula comes out of his coffin, and Costello is in the room with the candle....TOO FUNNY!! "Hey chicccc..oh chicccccc, CHICCCCCCCCCCCC!!!!"
Naughty Nineties for me ("Who's On First")
