One of my fave comedy teams was Abbott & Costello. "Who's On First" may be their most famous routine, but "The Susquehanna Hat Company" is so modern and surreal as to be downright spooky, (it can be found in their film, "In Society"). Abbott and Costello Meet Frankenstein is generally considered the last hurrah of Universal Pictures' monster movies; you get to see Bela along with Lon Jr. and even a voiceover by Vincent Price. Great stuff!
