Here Come the Munsters

The Munsters films of the 90s are excellent. They have good ideas and jokes. Their story of coming to America is told for the first time, amplified by homages to classic monster movies, especially Bride of Frankenstein. The new generation has great costumes, understands their characters (Veronica Hamel is especially great), and adds something quirky in the style of Tim Burton's contemporary projects. It's much better than the weak The Munsters' Revenge, and there's room for loving cameos by the original cast (Yvonne De Carlo, Edward Herrmann, Al Lewis, Butch Patrick, and Pat Priest). (30/03/2022)
