From IMDB- ‘Slim and Tubby are American cops in London to study police tactics. They wind up in jail and are bailed out by Dr. Jekyll. Jekyll has been murdering fellow doctors who laugh at his experiments. He has more murders in mind. At one point the serum that turns Jekyll into the murderous Hyde gets injected into Tubby.’

Great cast (Boris Karloff is very good), the usual frenetic pace and so great scenarios.

But this must be the weakest Abbott and Costello/Universal Classic Monsters crossover as our favourite pair aren’t given enough great material to work with. I missed the dialogue that made the previous two such a laugh riot.

But sub-par Abbott and Costello is still better than many other comedic films. Also, this might just be because the two previous films were just so much fun.

Let’s see what Abbott and Costello (coming soon) is like…

3 out of 5 stars
