MILF Rendezvous: The Addams Family

My original intention was to ride the weekend boon of Dark Shadows into a Sequel Suicide, but complications have arisen. One, Dark Shadows didn’t do as well as hoped, although I’d love for a project of my making to earn thirty million in one weekend. Two, I just now discovered The Addams Family franchise spawned a third, straight-to-video installment with a completely different cast, save for the return of Carel Struycken as Lurch and Christopher Hart as Thing. This raises the question, does a direct-to-video sequel count in a franchise total? Until we come to a decision, I’d like to amend this series to the more apropos, You Decide… Sequel Suicide?


It’s been twenty-five years since Fester (Christopher Lloyd), brother of Gomez Addams (Raul Julia), went missing. Ever since the falling out which Gomez believes precipitated his disappearance, the Addams clan gathers for a séance led by Granny (Judith Malina) to call to Fester. This year, they get an answer. That’s because Gomez’s lawyer Tully Alford (Dan Hedaya) has discovered that Gordon (Christopher Lloyd), the son of his loan shark Abigail (Elizabeth Wilson), is the spitting image of Fester. Together the trio plots to infiltrate the Addams family using Gordon to get their hands on the family’s countless riches. That is, assuming Gordon can survive life as an Addams.
