christopher c. m I do love this movie and I may be in the minority. I know the original cast is considered sacred and every attempt to replacement them has fans to being out the pitchforks. How some characters get recast with no problems but others can't is insane to me. Not sure if this was going to be a backdoor pilot for a New Munsters show I can't say. But it is funny, well made and is faithful to the original show. It does have some annoying supporting characters and the cast could have been better. But overall, I love it. Rated 4.5 out of 5 stars 03/31/23 Full Review Audience Member The original Munster family was cheesy, but the cast helped pull it together. This one film is just a cheap knockoff. Rated 1 out of 5 stars 04/25/18 Full Review Audience Member it's an ok film but it doesn't own up to the tv show you just can't replace Fred Gwynne Yvonne Decarlo and Al Lewis Rated 3 out of 5 stars 02/26/23 Full Review Audience Member I was expecting to HATE this with a passion.. however it wasn't the worst Christmas special/movie I've ever seen. Could not stand Sandy Baron's Grandpa.. it seemed so far from the original played so brilliantly by Al Lewis.. I actually thought the new versions of Marilyn and Eddie were slight improvements.. Rated 2.5 out of 5 stars 01/19/23 Full Review Audience Member A film that brings a little bit of the old Munster charm back. Rated 2 out of 5 stars 02/12/23 Full Review Audience Member I'm Not a fan of The Munsters- I'm a Fanatic! Back in the 60's Universal Studio's was trying to be creative with sitcom's, and feeling the heat from there Competitivor. And needed to seperate themselves from other mainstream madness. Inspired by other quirky show's like Aadam's Family and Bewitched- The Munster was born. Herman the aloof but tender hearted Frankenstien (Fred Gwynne) and my favorite Grandpa who's a mix of Vampire/wolf and crazy scientist (Al Lewis) stole the show. Unfortunitely back in the 90's most chairman were retiring from the 60's, and replaced with greedy, opportunist who choose to make movies from classic. The Munster's was 1 of those flash from the past ideals. Back in 96's Fred Gwynne died of heart failure and Al Lewis refused to comeback otut of retirement without the orginal cast. The replacements for the Munster Family proved to be catstorophic and the worst decision Universal could make. It was not only disapointing to dieheart fans, but the new generation who scratched there head in confusion. Rated 3 out of 5 stars 02/04/23 Full Review Read all reviews
