Imagine if your grandfather was such a legend that you were destined to remain forever in his shadow - and now imagine that your grandfather was none other than the original Dr Frankenstein! This is the predicament Fredrick Frankenstein finds himself in during this much-loved, brilliantly zany comedy Here, the Frankenstein legend is rewritten as Frederick discovers his late grandfather's diaries - and attempts to continue his ghoulish work, with hilarious results. This parody of the original 1930s Frankenstein movies is filled with timeless one-liners and some of the most hilarious set-pieces any comedy fan could wish for - the song "Putting On The Ritz" will never seem the same again.
PLEASE BE AWARE: After ordering Young Frankenstein the disc you will receive will be marked as being a 15 certificate - however, this relates to the extra features on the DVD and not the film itself, which is certified with the BBFC as a PG.
Into Film has consulted the BBFC, and their guidance is that as long as a club leader screens only the film (and not additional features or audio commentaries etc), Young Frankenstein can be treated as a PG certificate in a school setting.
