Summary
The villains used in Walt Disney's cartoons were always considered some of the most frightening in the movies, so it really shouldn't surprise you that Disney's animators looked to Universal's monster films for a little inspiration in the creation of this cartoon. Poor old Pluto is kidnapped and taken to an old mansion (inspired by "The Old Dark House") where the mad doctor wants to use him for an experimental transplant. Mickey Mouse has to come to his rescue and soon finds himself in the same predicament as Pluto; strapped to the operating table like Frankenstein's Monster. The "sets" used in this cartoon look like they were designed by Frankenstein's lab creator Kenneth Strickfaden. This stunning one sheet attests to the craftsmanship that H.C. Miner lithos used for Disney's cartoons. And although the cartoon was in black and white (which made it even more like an old Universal horror film), this one sheet is positively bursting with color.
