Did you tape it "Seinfeld style" by any chance? :)

One of the previews they showed beforehand was a commercial with a kid helping give the Creature and the Mummy a bath using the soakie!


Whaaaaa?!? Never heard of this. I assume it was animated?

It was animated and I WISH I knew it was coming up so I could've taped it. Looking online isn't giving me any indication of it which is very frustrating.

Perhaps contact the theater or group behind the showing? Would be a real coup to have this little tidbit available

Hey gang!

Here's a low quality, incomplete clip of that commercial with the Creature and Mummy soakies. My girlfriend and I saw "Abbott & Costello Meet Frankestein" a couple of days ago and they played the commercial again before the main feature. Wish I could've caught it all. It comes in on the part where the Creature is introducing himself and says he's "The Creature from the Black Lagoo-oooh hoo hoo, that's cold!" about the water's temperature.

Enjoy!

Although I can't find the monster Soaky commercial anywhere, (I think it might be lost)- You can at least get an
idea of what it might have looked like by watching this Superman/Tennessee Tuxedo Soaky commercial. You can see how they use the photo's of the Soaky bottles with the animated characters. I bet in the Mr. Magoo/ monster
commercial Mr. Magoo mistakes the Wolfman for a dog and the monster for the mailman, or something like that.

Is anybody else bothered by an adult male going off with a naked boy? :P

That's a concern/interpretation that never would never have reared its ugly head back in the early sixties. Sad but we've now been conditioned to always assume the worst.

Collecting! It's what I do!

Just reviving this thread to show off a perfect quality version of the Creature and Mummy commercial. Weird I only learned of it now, years later.

When it came to the Soaky commercial with the Creature and Mummy, I wonder if Jonathan Winters voiced the Mummy. I also wonder if Janet waldo or June Foray are voicing the Soaky Kid.

Dick Beals was the voice of The Soaky Kid. Paul Frees did the Creature and Mummy voices.
