Answer: Monochrome

"Young Frankenstein" is a comedy by Mel Brooks, parodying the horror movie genre. Gene Wilder plays Dr. Frederick Frankenstein the grandson of the famous Victor Frankenstein (a character from Mary Shelley's novel "Frankenstein" and movies based on it). He thinks his grandfather was an nutcase and does not want to be linked to him so he changes the way his name is pronounced to Fronchensteen.

He inherits property from his great-grandfather Baron Beaufort von Frankenstein in Transylvania. He goes to see the property and meats Igor (Marty Feldman), a servant, whose grandfather worked for Frederick's grandfather, and Inga (Teri Garr), an assistant. He also meets the housekeeper Frau Blucher (Cloris Leachman), who is so scary that even the horses freak out at the mere mention of her name.

Frederick discovers his grandfather's journals and starts to think perhaps it is possible to bring someone to life and begins his own experiments with bringing someone dead to life. He sends Igor to get the brain of Hans Delbruck, but Igor accidentally drops the brain and grabs a brain labeled "Abnormal". He tells Frankenstein the name was "Abby Normal". And so Frankenstein has brought to life a giant creature (Peter Boyle) with an abnormal brain.
