Mad Monster Party

Growing old, Dr. Frankenstein holds a convention of monsters—with the winner replacing him as top ghoul. Cute puppetry. Voices: Boris Karloff, Phyllis Diller. Jules Bass directed., This 1968 children’s film centers around a meeting of monsters–including Dracula, the Mummy, the Werewolf, the Creature from the Black Lagoon, and others–to elect a replacement for their leader, Baron Boris von Frankenstein (voice of Boris Karloff). Conflict arises understandably in this document of the ‘Animagic’ process (whereby figures are filmed with stop-motion photography).
