Lily and The Count watch the TV show Good Morning Transylvania with host Ezra Mosher. Over breakfast served by faithful servant Igor, The Count talks with his 150-year-old vampire daughter Lily Gruesella about her unsatisfying love life and disappointing recent date with Count Orlock. Lester calls his father with the proposal, but The Count immediately dismisses it. Under threat of losing his head, Lester agrees to Zoya's plan to have The Count sell her his Transylvanian castle so she can turn it into a casino and theme park. Seeking revenge on her ex-husband The Count, Romani Zoya Krupp entrances The Count's werewolf son Lester, who owes money to Zoya, to come to her tent. Wolfgang uses electricity to give life to his Frankenstein creation, which Floop names "Herman Munster". Floop accidentally steals the head of hacky comedian Shecky Von Rathbone instead of Shecky's astrophysicist brother Shelly, whom Wolfgang wanted.
Henry Augustus Wolfgang and his hunchbacked assistant Floop rob graves for body parts to build an experimental creation. It was released on Digital, Blu-ray, and DVD, and also available to stream on Netflix on September 27, 2022. The Munsters is a co-production of Universal 1440 Entertainment and Spookshow International Films. Principal photography began on November 2021 in Budapest. Zombie wanted the film to be in black and white, but the studio refused, and the director opted for a highly saturated look instead.
#GRAMPS THE MOVIE SERIES#
Rob Zombie had pursued developing a Munsters film with Universal Pictures before the release of his debut feature in 2003, and was attached to several related projects before confirming a film adaptation of the television series in 2021. Based on the 1960s family sitcom of the same title, the story takes place prior to the events of the series, serving as an origin story for the characters. This film also features the likes of Christopher Walken, Cheech Marin, Jane Seymour, and the kid from David Lowery's Pete's Dragon and Todd Haynes' Wonderstruck, so say what you will, but they're all having a blast and the result is - unsurprisingly - pretty fun to watch as well.The Munsters is a 2022 American horror comedy film produced, written, and directed by Rob Zombie and starring Sheri Moon Zombie, Jeff Daniel Phillips, Daniel Roebuck, Richard Brake, Jorge Garcia, Sylvester McCoy, Catherine Schell, and Cassandra Peterson. De Niro gives off serious Jack Byrnes vibes in a lot of this and I'm all for it. Rob Riggle screaming because he saw his father-in-law's junk is never not funny. Fox's character as she seeks her own revenge. People will give De Niro shit for bouncing between prestigious Scorsese pictures and presumable schlock like The War with Grandpa, but there's some unexpectedly heavy themes underscoring the silly premise here and while this family flick doesn't dig into the political and psychological ramifications of war it does at least acknowledge the metaphor as frequently as it reminds us this takes place in a Hallmark-esque reality, so it's something.įinally, some notes on the actors: there's a few frames here that confirm Uma Thurman could totally play The Bride again if Tarantino is serious about that follow-up following the daughter of Vivica A. Some of the gags are genuinely funny (believe it or not) and help build an actual relationship between a grandfather and grandson rather than said "war" being the only thing the two can talk about or have in common. Next, the script is admittedly pretty patchy, but the movie's heart is absolutely in the right place. Very Disney Channel of you, Laura Marano. First, I kind of liked how it has absolutely zero shame in being an early aughts-like family film complete with a song that incorporates (part of) the title as sung by a teenage cast member trying to crossover from movies to music.
I have way too many thoughts on this movie.
