The movie stars Boris Karloff (Frankenstein, The Mummy), Allan Swift, Gale Garnett (Leona Helmsley the Queen of Mean), Phyllis Diller (Goodnight, We Love You, Eight on the Lamb), and Ethel Ennis.
The plot of the movie is Frankstein is going to retire and name the new head of a world wide organization of monsters. He gathers some monsters, the Invisible Man and The Mummy among others. His nephew is there as he is to be the new leader. The monsters dont like that idea and plot to kill the nephew.
This is a very bizzar movie. You should know with in about two minutes if this movie is for you. The music reminds me of songs from 60's James Bond movies and the stop motion is like Rudolf the Red Nosed Raindeer from the 60's also. I did not like the fact that Diller, Frankensteins bride, refered to Franksteins monster as Fang. I always thought that was part ofher comedy act nothing to do with Frankstein.
Im rating this movie as a C or C+. But you should realize that it is the type of thing you will eather like or hate. I dont see any middle ground. If you are in the right mood it can be enjoyable. I dont see this movie being anything like something you would find in any top 100 list but could be mindless fun for some.
