THE ADDAMS FAMILY (1991)

Meet the Adams' Family.  They're weird, they're strange, they're eclectic, and did we mention they're weird?  Living in a rundown Victorian mansion, the Adams Family is straight out of macabre cartoon, spending their wealth on lavishly twisted incidentals.  But when a crooked accountant and his loan shark decide to get in on the Addams Family's fortune, they employ their son to pose as the Family's long-lost, beloved Uncle Fester.  But can the goon find the Adams' vault before he's exposed?

The lively cast includes: Anjelica Huston, Raul Julia, Christopher Lloyd, Dan Hedaya, Elizabeth Wilson, Dana Ivey, Paul Benedict, Christina Ricci, Jimmy Workman, Christopher Hart, and John Franklin.

Director Barry Sonnenfeld's "The Addams Family" is a fun, elaborate, oddly entertaining comedy.

The Addams Family Review

"Weird is relative." "It's not the same old Thing." "Creepy. Kooky. Spooky. Ooky."
