Munsters fans since I had such a good time reviewing Here Come The Munsters for you all a few days ago and with a certain time of year being a just over a month away I thought that it was about time that I reviewed what was for a time at least the final ever Munsters reboot movie. As such I invite you all to join me as I review the film that proved that everything that the The Munsters franchises touches doesn't turn to gold with the film in question being called simply just "The Munsters' Scary Little Christmas" enjoy.
The plot of this film is Eddie Munster is missing Christmas from his home country / town of Transylvania and so in order to bring him out of his funk the rest of the The Munsters clan decide to do everything that they can to make his Christmas just freaking perfect. Now then in terms of what I personally thought / felt about the actual plot of this film in all honesty i in all honesty personally thought / felt that the actual plot of this film was really freaking bad imply because the film starts a bunch of different plot lines but that either drops or even forgets about them for little to no freaking reason which is a sign of freaking bad writing in my opinion anyways / at least.
Starring in this film is Sam McMurray as Herman Munster , Ann Magnuson as Lily Munster and Bug Hall as Eddie Munster. Also starring in this film is Sandy Baron as Grandpa , Elaine Hendrix as Marilyn , Mary Woronov as Mrs. Edna Dimwitty , Ed Gale as Larry , Arturo Gil as Lefty , Mark Mitchell as Santa Claus , Jeremy Callaghan as Tom , John Allen as Mr. Pawlikowski , Noel Ferrier as The Voice Of The Door Knocker and Bruce Spence as Mr. Gateman.
Now then as for what I personally thought / felt about the actual acting that's actually featured / presented to us in this very well in all honesty I in all honesty personally thought / felt that the actual acting that's actually featured / presented to us in this very film was really freaking bad. I in all honesty cannot think of single good performance that came from this film because every single actor and actress that's appearing in / starring in this very freaking film turns in that bad of a freaking performance in my freaking opinion anyways / at least.
Now then unlike the previous Munsters movie Here Come The Munsters this film really doesn't like that it was made by genuine fans of the The Munsters TV series. Since none of the characters act in character and this lacks any of the heart that was present in both the TV show and was also present in Here Come The Munsters as well and so if anything this film felt like that it was made by a bunch who wanted to cash in a possible IP and so they didn't really bother to understand what it was that made that IP so special and actually good and freaking entertaining in the first freaking place in my freaking opinions anyways / at least.
So now then if you thought that the The Munsters were the first horror themed family / cast of characters to have their own Christmas special well you'd be dead wrong because the earliest Christmas special from a horror themed comedy TV show / TV show series that I could find was from the second season of the 1964 TV series The Addams Family. I don't know why TV networks think that giving horror characters a christmas special or a christmas movie is a good idea because such a bizarre thing that you almost have to see it just to see how bizarre it really freaking is in my freaking opinions anyways / at least.
Now then I will very freaking admit that I found it very freaking frustrating that they did the exact same plot line that they always freaking do with Marilyn and that's give her yet another freaking love interest. Heck that plot line is just so freaking predictable at this point in time that you know exactly how it's going to play out and yes it plays / goes out exactly how you think that it's going to play / go out because that freaking plot line is that predictable and that is that freaking over done to freaking death at this freaking point in freaking time in my freaking opinions anyways / at least.
Now then this film straight recycles plot points and scenes from Here Come The Munsters like for example Herman has to get a job in both films and Herman walks into a building only to scare people once again in both freaking films. This just goes to show you how lazily made this film is because they are ripping off plot points and scenes from a movie that came out one year prior to this film which just makes the makers of this film comes across as being very freaking lazy and untalented in my opinions anyways / at least.
So now then this film has / had a grand old running time of exactly one hour and twenty nine minuets and thirty seconds and well this is where this films penchant for dropping and for forgetting about plots comes into effect. Since / because this film ends it's main plot line Eddie at around the half way mark and begins another main plot line Herman which lasts until the one hour and twenty mark with more scenes being freaking added in as nothing but pure freaking filler in my freaking opinions anyways / at least.
Now then this film is meant to be a comedy film after all and so that means that I have to talk about the actual comedy that's actually featured / presented to us in this very film and well in all honesty I in all honesty personally thought / felt that the actual comedy that's actually featured / presented to us in this very freaking film was in all honesty really freaking bad. This is since not a single joke in this film got a huge laugh out of me and only few and Grandpa's lines were actually mildly funny the only issues I cannot for the life of me remember what those lines actually were but in this freaking film mildly funny is freaking fantastic in my opinions anyways / at least.
Overall for what should have been a homerun considering how good the film that came before this film which was called simply just "Here Come The Munsters" was this film some how failed at both being a homage to the original TV show The Munsters and at being a good way to update The Munsters franchise for the nineteen nineties in my opinion anyways / at least. Now i've talked about all of the good and as well as all of the bad things that are in this very film in this very review and as such this film gets / earns itself a grand old score of exactly a 4.5 out of 10 from me.
Now then as for where I personally got all the images that I personally used in this very review well then boys and girls and as well as ladies and gentlemen I personally got all of the images that I personally used in this review from the official The Addams Family fandom wiki page and Google Images. With my personally preferred website to use to get the images that are actually from this film and that that I personally / actually used in this very review being Google Images this is simply because Google Images actually has alot of images from this film and plus alot of / nearly all of the images that are from this film and that are currently up on Google Images are all fairly high in quality and as well as being fairly high definition and as always we end this review as we always do which is with one and true goddess Elvira wishing us all some very unpleasant dreams indeed.
