Laurent Winkler as Shelly Von Rathbone, an astrophysicist whose brain was intended to be used in creating Herman Gold Key Comics produced a Munsters comic book that ran for 16 issues from 1965 to 1968 and featured photo covers from the TV series. When the series first appeared, the Comics Code Authority still forbade the appearance of vampires in comic books. However, because Gold Key was not a member of the Comics Magazine Association of America, it was not obligated to conform to the Comics Code, and Lily and Grandpa appeared in the comics without controversy. As we start to wrap up, I ask about those Uncle Coffins skits and whether he planned on doing more. Collis, Clark (March 11, 2022).

What is The Munsters about?

Lewellen, Scott (2013). Funny You Should Ask: Oral Histories of Classic Sitcom Storytellers. McFarland. p.130. The Gilded Age': No One is More Disappointed About Susan Blane's and Larry Russell’s Break Up Than Production Designer Bob Shaw A lifelong fan of the 1960s television series, Rob Zombie had pursued developing a film before the release of his debut feature, House of 1000 Corpses (2003), which first began as a Universal production. Zombie expressed his enthusiasm for the property to the studio's chairman Stacey Snider, only to learn a new take was already in development. In 2016, the director learned of another Munsters project for Universal, and became involved. He began to overhaul a film "aimed at preschoolers" that originally focused on Herman and Lily's son, Eddie, but Universal eventually cancelled to explore television options instead. [3] [4] [5] Episodes referring to the fact that Herman is Frankenstein's monster include #55, "Just Another Pretty Face," in which Grandpa explains how he came to possess Herman's original blueprint by reading the inscription on it: "To our favorite Count, Dracula - a souvenir from Dr. Frankenstein and all the guys and gals" and #61, "Cyrano de Munster," in which Lily, suspecting Herman of infidelity, tells Marilyn: "I'll take Herman apart so that even Dr. Frankenstein couldn't put him together" Now the spooky family is alive again, and this time, it’s in a Netflix movie! Written, produced and directed by Rob Zombie, the movie is based on the 60s family sitcom, but takes place prior to the events of the series, serving as a prequel highlighting the origins of the sitcom’s beloved characters. As shown in the trailer, the movie shows Herman and Lily’s meeting, adventures and eventual marriage in Transylvania, all despite the disapproval of Lily’s father Grandpa.

The Munsters will be coming out on September 27 , but surprisingly, it’s not going to be on Netflix…at least not initially. The film is actually going to hit Blu-ray, DVD, and VOD first, and it’ll go to Netflix sometime later in the year. I pushed it as much as I could. Even in the camera test, I got so woozy I thought I was just going to pass out because I didn’t know how far I could go. But once the camera was on, if you watch the movie I’m constantly moving. Because Herman was just created – I’m not giving anything away, it’s in the trailer – but I wanted him to be a teenager, childlike. I wanted him to be kind of goofy and move around, as did Fred Gwynne. Fred Gwynne definitely had a childish manner with the way he did it.”

I always refer to him like a jazz composer. He has the composition but if he sees one of his players doing their thing, he adjusts it and makes sure they have their moment. That’s why it’s exciting to work with him. He’s not like ‘this is my storyboard, follow this.’” I’m talking to Jeff Daniel Phillips as The Munsters releases in the UK. Phillips has played key roles in Rob Zombie’s last four movies, after playing two smaller roles for him in Halloween II (2009). Zombie has put together a troupe of characters actors and Phillips is very much at the heart of it. Even before that, he had a recurring gig as the aforementioned Geico Caveman in both ads and the sitcom that followed them. That experience informed his performance in The Munsters.

The last convention I went to, they put me on an independent filmmaking panel, and I started talking. It was a Sunday morning and there were 40 people there, I had to just come off the cuff with what they wanted to know about independent filmmaking. I found it so inspiring that these young filmmakers were so passionate and as I was talking to them I realised, ‘oh yeah, I do know quite a bit about trying to pull it off’. I’ve done a lot of fringe theatre and we do that kind of stuff all the time. But I got done and I got on the plane and I was like, oh man, I need to do this more often, making stuff.”
