Universal '47 or '48. Abbot and Costello Meet Frankenstein and signify the death of the horror genre. (Obviously oral only) Mermaid is Anne Blythe from another Universal film. A & C and Dean Martin were both "Genre Killers" If they were in a movie it was the end for that genre for years. Meeting Abbot and Costello = washed up.
