It’s a great movie. Feldman was great as Eye-gor.

A favorite. Fun fact: the labratory props used in Young Frankenstein were the same props used for the 1931 Frankenstein movies.

Mel Brooks says that Kenneth Strickfaden, the man who created the props, still had them in his garage. When they found out, Strickfaden dusted them off, plugged them in, and they all worked. “I asked [20th Century] Fox if we could rent them, and give him a decent sum of money,” says Brooks.
