Trivia:
|
- The shot of the monster carrying Elizabeth in the woods is a subtle reference to a similar shot in Creature from the Black Lagoon.
- The howling wolf sound on the ride to the castle was made by director Mel Brooks.
- The film was shot in the same castle and with the same props and lab equipment as the original Frankenstein.
- The original cut of the movie was almost twice as long and was considered by all involved to be an abysmal failure. It was only after a marathon cutting session that they produced the final cut of the film, which both Wilder and Brooks considered to be far superior to the original product. At one point they noted that for every joke that worked, there were three that fell flat. So they went in and trimmed all the jokes that didn't work.
- The assistant property master's name, Charles Sertin, is on the third brain on the shelf.
