Young Frankenstein

Actors:  Gene Wilder, Peter Boyle, Madeline Kahn, Terri Garr, Marty Feldman, Cloris Leachman
Rating: 9 out of 10, comedy classic that is still laugh out loud funny.  I remember first seeing this when I was in college and literally falling out of chair laughing at Feldman.  There are so many moments, the horses panicking at mention of name Blucher (little known fact Blucher was a Prussian field marshal in Napoleonic wars who had a number of horses shot out from under him at Waterloo), the monster, Hackman as the blind monk, but most of all Feldman – a comic genius.
MVP:  Feldman is totally hilarious as the dim witted Eyegore
