Anything by Rob Zombie will get a watch by me, and his his missus, Sheri, as Lily Munster is an added bonus.

Wow - that looks terri-bad - not even good in an ironic way

Time for Zombie to retire as a film maker, he's made some fantastic movies but in recent years it's been painful.

Yeap, it looks like it's filmed on an iPhone, and TBH looks like a Student Film (sets, costume, effects etc) rather than a studio made film.

turned the trailer off, had potential but was just godawful. i always was an Addams guy though, so mebbes i'm biased.

I honestly went into the trailer not knowing what to expect, and it was just "off", it didn't feel like the munsters at all.

When it reaches netflix or prime I'll probably give it a go, but there is no way i'll be paying specifically for it unless there are more trailers that are significantly better, the trailer just gives me the same sort of vibe as some of the 90's/early 00's comic book films (and not the good ones).

It's a shame when I heard about a reboot/new Munsters project I was looking forward to it.

I don't think i'm being "precious" about it, as normally I can enjoy a well written/made remake, for example the original Addams Family, the 90's films and the newer one, and I enjoyed both the Munsters and Munsters Today.

Hmm unsure, maybe if it was filmed 10yrs ago, something was off, either the actors or design, i dunno.

My god, that trailer is appalling.

It's got a couple of the original cast in it, probably just cameo's. Oh and Cassandra Peterson, so that's a couple of... 'points'... in it's favour.

Other than that, yeah. Loots terrible.

Trailer #2 in OP :cry:

Another movie where he can cast his missus. Looks keek.

A terrible looking badly shot film from Rob?...well I never, not like hes known for being pretty god awful.

that all just looks like a wind up. but then pretty much everything that gob ***** does seems to be a wind up.

Zombie has done some gems, first two movies of the Firefly trilogy and his first Halloween movie were great - 31 had moments which were pretty decent but only when they were featuring the excellent Richard Brake though.

Yeha his halloween remake was very good i thought, took the same story and put his own twist on it showing parts of what made Michael go bad. Second was utter ***** though.
