Dr. Frankenstein: What knockers!
Inga: Oh, thank you doctor!
-
Igor: My grandfather used to work for your grandfather. Of course the rates have gone up.
-
Dr. Frankenstein: Hearts and kidneys are tinkertoys! I'm talking about the central nervous system!
-
Igor: It's times like this that I remember what my old dad used to say.
Dr. Frankenstein: What was that?
Igor: "What the hell are you doing in the bathroom all day and night? Why don't you get out of there and give someone else a chance?"
-

Trivia:
|
- The scene in which the creature contemplates throwing the little girl into the lake ("No more flowers. What shall we throw in now?"), is a homage to a scene in the 1931 film version of Frankenstein. In the 1931 version, this was cut from the film until its video release 50 years later.
- The shot of the monster carrying Elizabeth in the woods is a subtle reference to a similar shot in Creature from the Black Lagoon.
- When Dr. Frankenstein descends the stairs into the basement of the castle there is a gargoyle on the wall made to look like director Mel Brooks.
- The howling wolf sound on the ride to the castle was made by director Mel Brooks.
- When Victor finds his grandfather's private library, he finds a book titled "How I Did It." This is actually a joke for those people who have read Mary Shelley's Frankenstein. In the book, Frankenstein, Shelley never reveals how Victor reanimated dead flesh. The screenwriter obviously knew this and inserts the "How I Did It" book as a joke.
