Love the classic monsters Frankenstein, the Mummy, Dr. Jekyll, the Creature, Dracula, the Werewolf, and the Invisible Man? They're all here in this animated, 90-minute video--and so are the vocal talents of Boris Karloff and Phyllis Diller. After discovering the secret of destruction, Baron von Frankenstein is retiring as head of the World Wide Organization of Monsters. He's handpicked his mortal nephew Felix to be his successor, and his fellow monsters are less than pleased. Even though Felix politely declines to carry on this family tradition, the monsters band together and double-cross one another in comic attempts to expel Felix from the group.
The 'Rankin/Bass Animagic process' of using stop-motion photography with three-dimensional figures makes this video a visual feast for animation buffs, but it is outdated compared to modern animation techniques. Humorous details, like the count looking into a mirror to comb his hair and seeing only his comb reflected, permeate the video and will have viewers chuckling out loud and on alert for potential missed laughs. This video is best for children from about 5 to 12 years old or adults who want to reminisce over a movie viewed in their childhood. --Tami Horiuchi

Rating:  - not same as picured
The DVD is as advertised. I was dissppointed it did not contain the extras pictured in the item discription, just the DVD. Did enjoy the DVD though. :)
Rating:  - Man Monster Partty
The movie arrived promptly and in excellent condition. It's a great addition to a family dvd library. Made by the same company that produced 'Rudolph the Red Nose Reindeer' using the same technique. Great voice work by Phyllis Diller and Boris Karloff. Perfect for watching at Halloween.
Rating:  - Very disappointing
I was just amazed how bad this was especially since it is a Rankin Bass movie. I totally disagree about this being a family film...it is not! They have one scene where two women get into a fight but first their clothes are removed down to their underwear before they begin fighting - not to mention that one women's boobs are so big and pointed that they could literally poke an eye out!
Bad music, worse dialogue and the story line makes you snooze. The song that Phyllis Diller does is just about the worst I have ever heard.
This movie is over 90 minutes long and that would be about 85 minutes too long.
Rating: - Great Classic Movie!
This was the first movie I owned on VHS! I wanted to have a copy on dvd. The quality is great. There are some extras on the menu that aren't didn't come on the VHS tape. Shipping was fast. I will buy from this seller again!
Rating:  - oldie but a goodie
Great old animated movie,takes me back to my youth,great buy for the Boris Karloff Fan.
