New Alvin and the Chipmunks

Universal Studios Home Video is releasing ALVIN AND THE CHIPMUNKS MEET FRANKENSTEIN. Produced and
directed by Kathi Castillo and animated at Universal Cartoon Studios in
Universal City, California, the direct-to-video shows what happens when the
havoc wrecking chipmunks encounter Dr. Frankenstein and his creation at a
Universal Studios-type amusement park. The chipmunks were created by Ross
Bagadasarian (aka David Seville) in 1958 for the hit novelty record, "The
Chipmunk Song (Christmas Don't Be Late)." Seville's earlier hit, "Witch
Doctor," featured high-pitched chipmunk-like voices, but they were not yet
chipmunks or characters. The first Chipmunks series appeared on television
on October 4, 1961 when THE ALVIN SHOW premiered.
