Say my name

Young Frankenstein is a 1974 American comedy film directed by Mel Brooks and starring Gene Wilder as Dr. Frederick Frankenstein, a descendant of the infamous Dr. Victor Frankenstein who has inherited his grandfather's castle in Transylvania.

The movie is a comedic parody of the classic horror films of the 1930s, especially the Frankenstein films, and it pays homage to them while also mocking their conventions. The film was shot in black and white, using many of the same sets, props, and special effects as the original Frankenstein movies.
