The Munsters' Revenge (1981 TV Movie)
4/10
Well, at least three of the original Munsters are back.

"The Munsters' Revenge" was a reunion movie for SOME of the original cast of the classic TV show. The three leads, Lily, Herman and Grandpa all reprise their roles...a major plus for the film. However, instead of having the original Eddie and one of the original Marilyns, the film kept the characters young and recast them.

The plot is fair. A local wax museum owner is evil. In reality, his wax dummies are robots and he uses them to commit various crimes. But some of them also look like the Munsters and soon Grandpa and Herman are arrested for the crimes committed by their robotic alter egos.

The biggest problem with this film is that it just wasn't written well. It lacks humor and heart and instead just feels as if the three originals are going through the motions. Not terrible...but also not good.
