 The last nail in the Munsters coffin by NBC May 31, 2007
Astrotrain (USA)
This is the last time the Munsters were seen together, and in a very bad NBC 'Made for TV' movie at that (shame on you NBC!!).
In a Nut Shell...
Munsters are honored in a wax museum, but the evil owner of the wax museum decides to incorporate robotics into the wax figures of the Munsters and the rest of the exhibits and have them perform criminal activity. And when the police go looking they arrest the real versions.
The make-up is nowhere as good as the 1960's "Munster Go Home" movie, but if you are Munster fan like myself, you need to have this in your collection.
 A Very Good Comedy July 3, 2006

This Munster movie is nearly as good as "Munsters Go Home!". There are quite a number of hilarious scenes in this film that make it a timeless work of comedy. This movie is funny!
The film begins with the Munster family checking out the local wax museum, where Herman tells his wife Lilly - "Dear, you can get some good decorating ideas for our house". When they see their replicas, they like them. But Lilly laments - "Everybody's here except poor Marilyn". Herman remarks "You can't blame them, they don't want to scare away the customers".
A series of small robberies are later blamed on the Munsters, because the robbers look just like them. The cops arrest Herman and Grandpa. They later escape. Driving in a car, Grandpa tells Herman that somebody that looks just like them is doing these crimes. Herman says nobody is as handsome as he, except his reflection and his likeness at the wax museum. Grandpa shouts "Herman, you got it". Herman replys "Got what"? Grandpa explains that their answers are likely to be found at the wax museum.
They go to the wax museum and learn about the crime ring that has produced wax models that are also robots, and those robots are doing the crimes. Kinda like Marvin Bush blowing up the Twin Towers and blaming it on alleged Arabs - the baddies are having their robots do crimes and the Munsters are getting the blame.
The bad guys are planning a big robbery of an ancient Egyptian mummy's coffin. The Munsters foil the crime with a little help from Marilyn and her new beau - the police detective, and alot of help from The Phantom of the Opera. A good ending to a good movie.

Surprisingly Good! August 18, 2005

At first, I was disappointed that Marilyn and Eddie were to be played by different actors, but I guess it was inevitable as they had aged too much to stay "in character". I was also put off by the sharp colored makeup (the series was in BW), but these are minor quibbles.
Herman and Grandpa have such amazing chemistry here. In the series, I never sensed the warmth between these two as I do here.
A special treat is comedy great Sid Caesar (Your Show of Shows). He plays Dustin Diablo, an evil genius from ANCIENT EGYPT!
I won't give away too much plot, but it is basically a "mistaken identity" comedy, as Herman and Grandpa are framed by Diablo and arrested while Diablo's "men" are free carry out their elaborate heist.
If you love "Phantom of the Opera", he's in here too!
The Munsters - My Mistake September 16, 2004

When I wrote my letter I was going strictly on memory. When I watch the repeats of "The Munsters" on Cable TV I never notice that were very many episodes except the first 37. So, I am sorry I was wrong because I must have seen the second season when I was 11 years old and forgotten it. Jonny Quest I know for a fact only lasted one season.
When it comes to the movies, there appears to be a lot of movies release on DVD that I simply didn't know about. I also found out that "The Munsters' Revenge" 1981 also star the original cast. So, thank you for pointing this out to me. Now, I have found a movie I never seen before.
