Sarah Musnicky Nightmarish Conjurings MUNSTER, GO HOME isn't the greatest in the world, but will be loved by specific fans of the original series. Rated: 3/10 May 9, 2020 Full Review Matt Brunson Film Frenzy This pretty much plays like an extended episode of the series, even with unintentional pauses where the studio audience laughter usually filled the air. Rated: 2.5/4 Apr 9, 2020 Full Review Read all reviews

Ted B 1 star; Just plain silly. I didn't like the TV series, so why would the movie be any different? I had to watch it with my grandchildren. Otherwise... Rated 1 out of 5 stars 07/14/24 Full Review CodyZamboni Movie is campy, with cheap slapstick humor, an unnecessary romantic subplot, and annoyng villains. All those demerits are compensated by the movie's amusing hyper pace, and the endearing, charming, main cast going all in with their performances. Rated 3 out of 5 stars 11/13/23 Full Review Elvis D Una película aceptable para una clásica serie de televisión bien querida, pero que se siente como un episodio largo de dicha serie. Solo que esta vez vemos a los queridos protagonistas en un viaje fuera del escenario de siempre. Esta película tomó la buena decisión de reunir al elenco original manteniendo la gracia de los personajes de la serie. Si bien tiene un humor que se siente más infantil que el de la serie, al final Munster, Go Home es una película que se mantiene fiel a la serie y la vuelve una comedia que todo fan de The Munsters puede disfrutar. Mi calificación para esta película es un 8/10. Rated 4 out of 5 stars 03/12/23 Full Review Audience Member Right after The Munsters finished up on TV, this movie was released. Everyone from the show but Pat Priest came back, with Marilyn now played by Debbie Watson. Even its director, Earl Bellamy, had worked on the show before. The other major change in this movie is that it's in color. The decision to make the movie -- after the show ended, which isn't how this usually works -- is because this movie was made to introduce the characters and concept to foreign audiences, with the syndicated episodes following in its wake. Herman (Fred Gwynne) and Lily Munster (Yvonne De Carlo) have inherited Munster Hall in Shroudshire, England, which makes Herman now Lord Munster to the rage of Herman's British relatives Grace (Jeanne Arnold) and Freddie (Terry-Thomas, perfectly cast in this role). Also, somehow Grandpa has taken some wolf pills and is now a werewolf. I always ask myself, when a horror-related movie comes out in the 60s, where is John Carradine? Well, he's right here, playing the evil butler. Whew -- I was worried he'd miss out on the paycheck. This is also the movie with Drag-U-La in it, built by George Barris. It was the second car he made for The Munsters, with the other being the Munster Coach. Ironically, that's the car in Rob Zombie's video for "Dragula." The sample at the open of that song -- "superstition, fear and jealousy" -- is Christopher Lee from Horror Hotel. Rated 2 out of 5 stars 02/06/23 Full Review Audience Member Fun and nostalgic...classic names of stage and screen that are no longer with us...Fred Gwynne, Yvonne DeCarlo, Al Lewis, John Carradine, Terry Thomas, Hermione Gingold, Bernard Fox, Richard Dawson, Robert Pine and Jack Dodson... Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 02/15/23 Full Review Audience Member It could have been worse. The cast is funny and committed. The custom cars designed by George Barris & company are great to see and the costumes and makeup in color is ghoulushly garish. Rated 2.5 out of 5 stars 01/20/23 Full Review Read all reviews
