Gramps the movie tv#
Lily and The Count watch the TV show Good Morning Transylvania with host Ezra Mosher. Over breakfast served by faithful servant Igor, The Count talks with his 150-year-old vampire daughter Lily Gruesella about her unsatisfying love life and disappointing recent date with Count Orlock. Lester calls his father with the proposal, but The Count immediately dismisses it. Under threat of losing his head, Lester agrees to Zoya's plan to have The Count sell her his Transylvanian castle so she can turn it into a casino and theme park. Seeking revenge on her ex-husband The Count, Romani Zoya Krupp entrances The Count's werewolf son Lester, who owes money to Zoya, to come to her tent.

Floop accidentally steals the head of hacky comedian Shecky Von Rathbone instead of Shecky's astrophysicist brother Shelly, whom Wolfgang wanted. Henry Augustus Wolfgang and his hunchbacked assistant Floop rob graves for body parts to build an experimental creation. It was released on Digital, Blu-ray, and DVD, and also available to stream on Netflix on September 27, 2022. The Munsters is a co-production of Universal 1440 Entertainment and Spookshow International Films. Principal photography began on November 2021 in Budapest. Zombie wanted the film to be in black and white, but the studio refused, and the director opted for a highly saturated look instead.
Gramps the movie series#
Rob Zombie had pursued developing a Munsters film with Universal Pictures before the release of his debut feature in 2003, and was attached to several related projects before confirming a film adaptation of the television series in 2021. Based on the 1960s family sitcom of the same title, the story takes place prior to the events of the series, serving as an origin story for the characters. Still worth watching if it's on TV.The Munsters is a 2022 American horror comedy film produced, written, and directed by Rob Zombie and starring Sheri Moon Zombie, Jeff Daniel Phillips, Daniel Roebuck, Richard Brake, Jorge Garcia, Sylvester McCoy, Catherine Schell, and Cassandra Peterson. Predictable "twists", predictable finale. But what the heck - Gramps goes mental and tries to take over the family by breaking up the Son's marriage and attacking and/or killing anyone and everyone else who gets in his way, period. Why did he have to turn psycho, why couldnt it have been a genuine drama where an old man makes up for his past mistakes ? Because the few emotional scenes there are between Griffith and Ritter as Father and Son had the potential to have been quite powerful if only the film had been a Drama instead of a Psychological Thriller. In this case it would definately have made for a better film because Andy Griffith is great as the old man trying to make up for missing out on his grownup son's childhood. It might have made a change if for once they had made a film where the person seeking acceptance from the family did NOT have to turn psycho. But this time it is the estranged geriatric Father's turn to turn psycho. The film seems to follow the trend for 'initially nice person with secret obcessive traits, cracks and wreaks vengeance on wholesome family' set by the likes of "Hand That Rocks The Cradle", "The Crush", and "The Stepfather" and many others. I only watched this because it has Andy Griffith and John Ritter - two greatly underated actors.
