Jun 28 08 3:59 PM Reply Quote More My Recent Posts	I've always enjoyed A&C MEET J&H. It's always been my next favorite of their monster films (after MEET FRANKENSTEIN). I guess a lot of this comes from seeing it on Channel 11 on Sunday mornings while growing up, but also that it always had more "monster action". In more recent years I've come to appreciate MEET THE MUMMY for the comedy of Bud and Lou; they're better in that film than they are in JEKYLL. So I guess you could say I like J&H more for the monster business and MUMMY more for Abbott & Costello.

Maybe for that reason it's one of my favorites. I know this has probably been dealt with elsewhere but does anyone know who played the Frankenstein Monster in the wax museum scene?

Thanks. I've often wondered why, when Universal was looking for a new Frankenstein monster, they didn't just go with one of the various stunt men who'd doubled as the monster over the years, especially after Frankenstein Meets the Wolf Man where it was almost all doubles anyway. Once they'd dispensed with horror "names" Eddie Parker would have served just as well as Glenn Strange.
