Alvin and the Chipmunks Meet Frankenstein

Alvin and the Chipmunks Meet Frankenstein is a 1999 film about the Chipmunks getting involved with Dr. Frankenstein and his monster. Directed by Kathi Castillo. Written by John Loy. Dialogue Mr. Yesman: Lovely bag! It must have costed you an arm and a leg. Dr. Frankenstein: Actually... an arm and *two* legs. Simon: What happened, Alvin? Trip over your ego? Theodore: I bet Alvin would feel better if I had something to eat. Why don't we find a snack bar? Alvin: Hello? A snack bar? Are you kidding?! We've got a whole hour to kill at the thrill-ride capital of the universe, and you want to go to a snack bar? Absolutely not! Simon: This kills me to say it, but Alvin's right. There's the 3-D show, the special effects lab, and the fabulously- Alvin: Oh, please, Simon. We're going to Dragonland! Phil: [picks up Alvin; crossly] Listen, you little… beaver, or muskrat or whatever you are. [presses his finger on Alvin's cap] Alvin: [fiercely] Don't…touch…the cap. Phil: Oh. You think you can do this job better than me? Alvin: Duh! Simon: Great shortcut, Alvin. We've been walking for hours, and I've yet to see a single dragon. Theodore: Yeah, and I'm still hungry. Simon: [gasps when he sees their cancelled show] Our show's been cancelled. [to Alvin; annoyed] What do you suggest we do now, Mr. Reliable? Alvin: Okay, okay, I admit it. We missed our show, the park is closed, we're probably locked in, and it's all my fault! There. Are you happy? Simon: [dryly] I'm just fuzzy all over. Alvin: Hey, why don't I get to dial? Simon: Because it's my quarter, and Theodore asked first. [Dave goes through a photo album of the baby Chipmunks to two police officers] Dave: Theodore's always been so happy and sweet. Simon's the one with the glasses. Funny, I didn't even know he needed them. And then of course, there's Alvin. [picks up a photo frame of Alvin holding two pans on fire] Oh, this was the time Alvin burned down the kitchen, making me a Father's Day breakfast. Female Officer: Oh, yeah, I remember getting the call on that one. Dave: [shows another photo of Alvin releasing some lab rats from their cage in the school open house] Oh, and here he is, just after he set the lab rats free at the school open house. [points to himself in the background] There I am. [After the Chipmunks return home, they enter the living room and sit in the sofa as Dave questions them about their whereabouts] Dave: Where on earth have you boys been?! Alvin: Well, we… Dave: Why didn't you call? Theodore: We tried! Dave: Didn't you start to think how worried I must have been? Simon: Yeah, but we… Dave: Missed your show and disappeared for hours! Alvin: [sulking] I can't believe it. Dave didn't believe me. Simon: Yeah, especially with your track record for honesty. Alvin: Can I help it if I don't stifle my active imagination? Dave: Simon, Theodore, ALVIN! Go to sleep! Theodore: [wakes up as Alvin and Simon were about to whack Frankenstein's monster (later named Frankie) with a baseball bat] Wait! Don't hurt him. He's a good guy. Alvin: [chuckles] Well, of course he is. We just wanted to know if you guys wanted to play… uh, baseball. Theodore: Well, uh, maybe after breakfast. Alvin: I don't get it. If he's such a big, lovable lug, then why was he trying to kill us? Simon: Perhaps, he wasn't trying to kill us. Alvin: Hello! If he'd caught us last night, he'd have cracked our little bodies… like this! Simon: [as Frankie hands him Alvin's cap] Alvin would never go anywhere without his cap. Where's Alvin? Dr. Frankenstein: I am going to turn you into a mindless zombie. Have you ever seen a mindless zombie? Alvin: Are you kidding? I live in Hollywood! Dr. Frankenstein: I don't get it. The formula I fed him is foolproof. Perhaps another jolt. Simon: [takes the notebook] I don't believe that's the problem. Dr. Frankenstein: Wait a minute! Give me that notebook! Simon: [retorting] Over my dead body! Dr. Frankenstein: You've come to the right place. Simon: Alvin, what did the doctor give you to drink? Alvin: I don't know. Some purple junk. Simon: Hmm. [reading a formula in the notebook] "Cartoon Monster-Maker Frappe. Serve cold with 50,000-volt chaser. Then wait three minutes." [closes the notebook and checks the time on his watch, seeing that three minutes is up] Uh-oh! Theodore: Hey, Alvin. [takes Alvin's cap out of his pocket to give it back to him] Here's your cap. [Just as Alvin is about to take his cap back, his hand swells.] Alvin: Huh? Huh?... [his entire body begins to swell.] Aah! Aaaah! [his body continues swelling and inflates into an enormous size.] H-Help! Oh! Aaaah! Whoa-oa-aah! [Once he's stopped inflating, Alvin starts bouncing up and down like a bouncing ball; after the fifth bounce, the air escapes his body, shrinking him back to his normal size, but has transformed into a crazy cartoon monster] Alvin: DON'T TOUCH THE CAAAAAAAP!!! Simon: Eureka! The antidote! Theodore: Great! Simon: Oh, no. I have no idea where to find these ingredients. "Inert marine ova, the lower limbs of an amphibian, bovine oral organs--" Theodore: Hey! The buffet table! Simon: Theodore, this is hardly the time for a snack. Theodore: No! It's the antidote! Look! Caviar, frog's legs, beef tongue-- [disgusted] Oh, yuck! Uh, what else? Simon: Houston, we have a problem. Apparently this stuff won't work unless Alvin eats it… while he's upside-down.
