    Advantages Advantages Disc would make a nice Frisbee

    Disadvantages Disadvantages Too many to count.

    I remember summer holidays from school, spending mornings watching films by these two comics as they used to show a lot of their re-runs in those days. (When ah were a lad!) They made a lot of spoof horror films as I recall, such as ‘Abbott and Costello meet Frankenstein…’ or the Mummy… They were pretty funny as well, or so I thought. About five years ago I saw a bit of one of these spoof films and found that Lou Costello still made me laugh a bit even then, so when I saw this film for an extremely cheap price I had to get it.

    Advantages Advantages Classic Oldie

    Disadvantages Disadvantages dated Gags and Humour

    Abbott and Costello's Jack and the Bean Stalk. Saw this film just before Christmas; I remember how much I used to laugh whenever I saw Abbott and Costello on the television when I was younger, So for £4.99 I thought, what a bargain. Bar of Chocolate, bag of crisps, and a mug of tea, I was sorted, ready for a good nights viewing of laughter.
