Addams Family Movies, Re-makes and Cartoons

The Addams Family

The Addams step out of Charles Addams' cartoons. They live with all of the trappings of the macabre (including a detached hand for a servant) and are quite wealthy. Added to this mix is a crooked accountant and his loan shark and a plot to slip in the shark's son into the family. How will they do this? Well for 25 years uncle Fester has been missing. An evil doctor finds out and introduces a fake Fester in an attempt to get the Adams Family's money. The youngest daughter has some doubts as to the sincerity of the new uncle Fester. The fake uncle adapts very well to the strange family. Can the doctor carry out her evil plans and take over the Adams Family's fortune?

Addams Family Values

On any day of the week, you could expect a newborn baby to be nurtured and loved by his older sister. Except, of course, if it's Wednesday. Pubert is the latest addition to the Addams family and, to prevent sibling rivalry escalating to fratricide, Wednesday and Pugsley are shipped off to summer camp and a nanny is hired. Debby Jellinsky is great with wrinkling baldies, which makes her the perfect nanny for Pubert. Uncle fester finds true love (or is it ?) in Debbie. Debbie, though, has her eye on Fester's money, but first she has to separate him from the rest of the family.

Addams Family Reunion

Gomez and Morticia are horrified to discover that Grandpa and Grandma Addams have a rare disease that is slowly turning them "normal". The only chance they have of curing them is to organize a family reunion, hoping that someone knows a home remedy. Unfortunately, due to a printing error, the family arrives at the reunion of an ordinary family named Adams (with one D). While Gomez and Morticia, oblivious to the mistake, search for a cure amongst a family divided by the wish to inherit; Pugsley and Wednesday are busy making new friends...explode; Uncle Fester and Thing search for a vicious Chihuahua that lives on human hair; and Lurch falls in love. Meanwhile, a couple going to the reunion are given the wrong address and end up at the Addams mansion where Granny and Cousin Itt are staying. No-one's life will ever be the same...

Re-Makes

The New Addams Family (TV Show 1998)

Basically an updated-for-the-90's version of the original Addams Family show. The family remains the same: Gomez, Morticia, Wednesday, Pugsley, Uncle Fester, Granmama, Lurch, Thing, and Cousin Itt. They're still spooky, and they still have a lot of neighbors and other outsiders who show up and get freaked out by the family's macabre shenanigans. An interesting twist John Astin now plays Grandpa Addams.

Cast:
Glenn Taranto ....... Gomez Addams
Ellie Harvie ........ Morticia Addams
Betty Phillips ...... Granmama Addams
Nicole Fugere ....... Wednesday Addams
Brody Smith ......... Pugsley Addams
John DeSantis ....... Lurch
Michael Roberds ..... Uncle Fester
Steven Fox .......... Thing
John Astin .......... Grandpapa Adams
Paul Dobson ......... Cousin Itt
Mike Dopud .......... Colonel Blake
Saskia Gould ........ Lurch's Fantasy
David Mylrea ........ Cousin Itt
Christopher Shyer .. Cousin Vladd

Cartoon:

The Addams Family Cartoon (1973-1975)

A cartoon series based of the original comics and the tv show from the sixties, the Addams Family is not your typical family: they take delight in most of the things that "normal" people would be terrified of. Gomez Adams is an extremely wealthy man, and is able to indulge his wife Morticia's every desire: be it cultivation of poisonous plants, or a candlelit dinner in a graveyard. People visiting the Addams Family just don't seem to appreciate the 7 foot tall butler "Lurch" or the helping hand (which is just a disembodied hand" named "Thing".
