The owner of a wax museum has an exhibit dedicated to the Munsters. When he uses robots that look like Herman and Granpa to pull a jewelry heist, everyone thinks that the real Herman and Grandpa did it. They must prove their innocence and uncover the real thieves. (official distributor synopsis)
Reviews (1)
The Munsters' Revenge is a sad swan song. The ideas are there, the willingness too, and the main actors were perfectly in tune with their roles, but the pause was too long. So what would have been an interesting two-parter of the old series becomes an undignified standalone revival. Phantom of the Opera's cousin (based on Chaney) is basically a genius character, but would be terrifying in black and white. He's just insanely entertaining this way. The other monsters, like the Bride of Frankenstein (based on Elsa Lanchester), are reprehensibly underused, although the masks are excellent. And worse, Lily gets almost no space. For Munster lovers, it’s routine, others don’t need to bother with it. Their golden era was concluded in the film Munster, Go Home!
