this just looks like John Astin meeting a Gomez cosplayer at a convention or something

two years pass...

pitch yer scripts here

...the 2017 twist is... the Munsters will be living in Brooklyn.

According to Deadine's Nellie Andreeva, the single-camera remake (not the first attempt to bring it back to life) is now in development, and "follows members of an offbeat family who are determined to stay true to themselves but struggle to fit in in hipster Brooklyn."

Bryan Fuller attempted this like, what, a year ago? Maybe failed Munsters reboots no one asked for will become an annual tradition.

"What if regular Brooklyn residents are the REAL monsters?" is a pretty straight-over-the-plate pitch though.

seven months pass...

So, uh, I guess all it took for a Munsters reboot to get off the ground was for Rob Zombie to take the helm?

From the first moment I saw the show, I hated Eddie Munster. I also hated the bland, 'nice girl' daughter who was the 'normie' thrown in so the writers could play around with a bigger variety of plots; she was so bland and awful she basically disappeared on the screen like a black hole from which no charisma could escape, so the writers wisely tossed her overboard in most of the episodes.

There's no way this is getting a theatrical release, right? This is like a straight-to-YouTube-with-450-views production https://t.co/TbtUwXhdTb

Rob Zombie movies are all about the same 3 things.
1) Rob wants you to know he's recreating some of his favorite movies.
2) Rob want to play some classic rock songs he likes for your.
3) Rob want to show you his wife is keeping it tight.

can't believe Rob Zombie's comedy chops are lacking

i'm a sicko, but i don't hate the way it looks. the ... jokes? ... are atrocious. if those are the highlights we're in real trouble.

Addams Family had some cool shit but The Munsters was way funnier

taking sides: rob zombies "the munsters" vs danzig's "verotika"

nobody like my rap (One Eye Open), Wednesday, 13 July 2022 18:33 (one year ago) link

This looks terrible. It looks like Zombie has followed Kevin Smith down the "I'm just going to have fun making whatever the fuck I want with buds, I don't care who watches it", which, I guess I can respect on some level.

did they have an intern who had never seen a movie trailer before cut that trailer

mh, Wednesday, 13 July 2022 20:10 (one year ago) link

that said, i'm 100% on board with letting Rob Zombie make a Munsters film. sure, why not?

mh, Wednesday, 13 July 2022 20:14 (one year ago) link

my theory is that the trailer is like that because Rob Zombie has never seen a single episode of the of original series of The Munsters but has watched every episode of The Munsters Today multiple times

soref, Wednesday, 13 July 2022 20:34 (one year ago) link

Zombie is apparently an enormous Munsters fan? Although you'd be forgiven for thinking he felt a while different way about the Munsters based on that trailer.

how quickly we forget Herman Munster racing in his hot rod, the dragula
