Loaf Productions As a huge Munsters fan since I was a child, this film doesn't fail to be brilliant - fantastic performances from all cast and very very funny story.Interesting to see the show in colour rather than black and white, however, both black and white and also colour really fit the show/film very well.This is easily the best of the Munsters movies.If you're a HUGE Munsters fan, like me, then you will definitely LOVE this :)It would be brilliant if this film came out in BluRay :)

Wizard-8 I must confess that I have never seen an episode of the television series "The Munsters" - that's what happens when you grow up in Canada where Canadian content is forced on its citizens, which leaves less chance for American series to air. Anyway, I knew a little about the show before watching this movie, and there's one problem this movie has right from the start - it is filmed in color, and the make-up on the various Munster characters looks very phony when it was probably not on the black and white TV show. But that's a minor quibble compared to the big problem of the movie, and that is that it's not funny at all. Instead of aiming at a wide audience, the mentality of the script is aimed at young children. While young children might laugh at some of the childish antics here, this adult sat through the movie stone faced. The basic idea of the movie - the Munsters encountering Brits - had a lot of promise, but the execution is sorely lacking. And it doesn't encourage me to look online for episodes of the television show.

bkoganbing I have to admit this one kind of had me reaching. Munster Go Home has our friendly Gothic cast from the television series going to the United Kingdom to claim the title of Lord Munster. Needless to say the guy who hoped he would inherit the title Terry-Thomas is not pleased. Neither of course is Lady Munster wannabe Hermione Gingold and their faithful retainer butler John Carradine. In fact Carradine's working an agenda all his own.I'm still puzzling over how someone who was put together with old body parts can possibly claim any lineage for a title. But I think I'm being picky there.Anyway Fred Gwynne, Yvonne DeCarlo, Al Lewis, and Butch Patrick from the television series all return for the feature film and Debbie Watson becomes the third actress to play Marilyn who thinks she's an ugly duckling because of the beautiful family she's from. The cruise to the other side of the pond should have made her rethink those notions as she sees everyone else on the ship and gets romanced by Robert Pine.Nothing great here, but if you're a fan of the show you should like it.

moonspinner55 Theatrical farewell to Herman, Lily, Grandpa and the gang features many of the same talents behind the popular 1960s television show "The Munsters", but this misadventure seems a little bereft of imagination--perhaps a laugh-track might have helped? The ghoulish clan inherits a British estate, and Herman gets involved in a slapstick auto race. Debbie Watson is the one newcomer to the cast (taking over for Pat Priest as niece Marilyn), but not even a jovial Fred Gwynne or the glinty-eyed Al Lewis can raise this script from the crypt. Maybe filming the family in color was a technical error--it takes the edge off the Universal/monster movie satire which the TV show nailed without effort. This one strains for laughs, and ends on a whimper. *1/2 from ****
