Rob Zombie got his wish

It does seem like the reboots try to go the other way. Starsky and Hutch goes comedy for the reboot. Dragnet was...reportedly a comedy. Addams family was a sitcom and was turned into a dark goth side eyes.

^Well, the advantage there is The Munsters is a comedy, where DS never was, although Burton and Depp apparently forgot that, and wanted to riff on the absurdity of the low-rent production. I just hope they don't steer The Munsters into a sheer horror direction.

I really liked Mockingbird Lane. I am just hoping he can steer out of the skidmark that the Dark Shadows (Tim Burton,Johnny Depp) movie became.

Can't be any worse than Mockingbird Lane.

The Munsters played into both monster mania and sitcom tropes that were part of the pulp culture of the time. So I suspect the formula will need to be tweaked a little for today's audiences. This will be a tough one to make everybody happy.

That does sound good.

Cool!!

If it's got a bit of an edge, that's fine. But I don't want them to go straight horror or non-all ages with this. The 90s Addams Family films have held up very, very well, and they have a lot of semi-subtle adult humor, but kids just enjoy it for the creepy Halloween factor. If Zombie goes that route, with maybe a bit more over-the-top flair, that would be perfect.

I’m in. I like Zombie’s movies.

Hoping he goes faithful to the show. The big problem is trying to replace the cast. Gwynne and Lewis are a tough act to follow.

He's doing a movie for The Munsters. Just not sure which way he'll go with it. Since he's a big fan,I'm hoping he goes the comedy route instead of horror.
