Directed by: Mel Brooks

Other mistake: When Dr. F. is introducing the Monster in the theatre, he says, "as incredulous as it seems." "Incredulous" means unable to believe. The word he should have used is "incredible", which means unable to be believed.
Other mistake: When they are removing the casket from the grave, the grave is just slightly bigger than it. How did they get underneath?
Continuity mistake: When Dr. Frankenstein introduces himself to the monster with a soothing "Hello, there", his right hand is on the restraint over the monster's chest. The next shot shows the doctor placing his hand on the restraint again.
Dr. Frederick Frankenstein: You know, I'm a rather brilliant surgeon. Perhaps I can help you with that hump.
Igor: What hump?
Trivia: When the Burgermeister says the village and townspeople were terrorized "five times before", it is a reference to incidents from five Frankenstein films: Frankenstein, Bride of Frankenstein, Son of Frankenstein, Ghost of Frankenstein, and House of Frankenstein.

Answer: Elizabeth was vain, self-centred, manipulative, and needed to be the center of attention. She didn't want Frederick away from her influence.
