This Is My Favorite Mel Brooks Film!!!


This is my favorite Mel Brooks film. I'm not saying it's his best, just that it's my favorite. I laugh more through this than any other of his and I am a huge Hitchcock fan. Obviously films like Blazing Saddles and Young Frankenstein are more popular with fans, but I feel this one has more gags, more laughs and is the most outrageous.

Well, guess I'm the ONLY one. No biggie, I love this film!

Add me to the list. It's my favorite Brooks film, and I'll even risk burning at the stake to say that, for me, it's better than BLAZING SADDLES or YOUNG FRANKENSTEIN. Steve V.

It's my favorite Mel Brooks film too, my second favorite is actually History of the world part one.

I dig. Favorite, as in rewatchable. Citizen Kane is a great film but I'd rather watch A Touch of Evil again.

Underrated. A superior parody.
