I always liked the Frankenstein film over the Wolfman one personally.
Alvin and the Chipmunks come face-to-face with the creepy Dr. Frankenstein and, by extension, Frankenstein's monster. However, they have a chance to teach the monster to be good, to earn friends and show compassion to those around him. The question is, will the Chipmunks be able to convince the townspeople that he isn't what he appears to be?
This film always had more compassion to me than the Werewolf one; it was about not judging people on their appearance, accepting those who are different in any capacity, and trying your best to include the people who are left out. And it accomplishes all that with some truly fantastic songs scattered throughout.
It's a simple story and concept, but it's something we all need to be reminded of from time to time. Every year around Halloween, when I take this movie out and watch it again, it's always nice to get a reminder of the lessons given in this movie. It has a lot of heart and humanity, which is why it'll always have a place in my heart around the Halloween season.
