Boo, 1932 - ★★★½

You can also find this review on Letterboxd

This was a special on my Frankenstein DVD and it's actually a rewatch. This 9 minute short is so much fun. Using scenes from Nosferatu, Frankenstein and The cat creeps (a now lost movie), a narrator makes fun of those movies.

I don't know why but this movie really worked for me. I loved the cheesy narration. The narrator is just cracking one joke after the other, and enough were good enough to stick with me. I actually laughed a few times at those remarks.

I don't know if this was common for the time, but it feels like something that wasn't done much in the 30s.

If you like cheesy humor, check it out, it's short and fun.
