    The thing about the show was that the joke was (at least when it began) that they're an almost perfect recreation of a stereotypical suburban family that JUST SO HAPPENED to be monsters (mostly) .

    Fun Fact: Rob Zombie shot the film with a heightened color scheme. "I noticed when the actors were in their makeup and they were just walking around, getting lunch or whatever, they looked like cartoon characters come to life. They were just so insanely colorful. I had to light the movie in the same fashion. It really seemed at all times like a live action cartoon, which was really exciting."

    Another cool fact about this interesting movie: The character of Zombo on the TV program Herman was watching was featured in the original series. Eddie idolized Zombo and won a contest that allowed him to visit the set of the show. He became very upset when he discovered Zombo was just an actor in make-up. And, in the fashion of 1950s-60s TV. Eddie realized his dad was who he should be idolizing, not Zombo

    To be fair to Universal 1440, their Chucky movies are actually legitimately good. Especially since they were written and directed by the original series creator, Don Mancini AND did a fair deal of interesting things with the series.

    Executive Meddling: Universal wouldn't let the movie be Deliberately Monochrome to match the look of the original TV series - so other than the short black and white sequences he was allowed, Rob Zombie went for "the opposite of black and white" by using bright, oversaturated colors. While it didn't affect the direction of the film as much, Grandpa/The Count also couldn't be shown smoking a cigar as he often does in the original series.

      I love Chucky, but sinking millions of dollars to make another theatrical release, when Seed of Chucky saw less of a return than Bride, and the whole series attracting fewer and fewer people was just not a sound investment. Bride was the biggest uptick, doubling 3's return, but it just wasn't going to be good for a big studio demanding big money and hoping to make big returns. It's a niche audience, which is typically better served by straight-to-video anyway.

    Another cool fact from this film is: Herman's outfit (shirt with baggy sleeves, fur vest with visible stitches and dark, tight pants) on his first date with Lily mimics the artwork for the ubiquitous "seven-foot monster" ads in 1960s comic books, which advertised a poster of Frankenstein's monster drawn by MAD magazine and Topps trading card artist Jack Davis.

    Madagascar, Ice Age, Toy Story, Spy Kids*, The Santa Clause*, Cars, Star Wars original trilogy and prequel trilogy, and Despicable me.
    *(Yes, I am aware that he’s talk about a movie from this series in the past, but I still think they warrant mentioning. I mean if he can review a movie for Disneycember and for NC and vice versa, ha can do this too.)

    The Addams Family was all about black humor presented in a light horror version of the nuclear family. The Munsters is the parody of that done for pure schlocky laughs.
    The Addams Family was tons funnier - especially the movies with Raul Julia, but the Munsters, for all their corny humor and typical sitcom type hijinks, actually was pretty heartwarming. They just really liked each other and really had a lot of fun going through all their adventures - like kids with their new toys on Christmas day.
    I prefer what the Addams Family can do, but it's just super easy to have a soft spot for the original Munsters. They were harmless and a lot of goofy fun.
