Young Frankenstein/Fridge

Everything About Fiction You Never Wanted to Know.


  • Fridge Brilliance: Go watch Son of Frankenstein, the movie that Young Frankenstein draws most of its material from. In that movie, the titular son of Frankenstein has a son of his own; a young boy who bears more than a passing resemblance to Gene Wilder, who plays the grandson of Victor Frankenstein. Coincidence, or perfect casting?
