235: The Munsters (2022)

This week we're joined by a special guest as we check out Rob Zombie's The Munsters (2022). We assess the quality of the film's aesthetic, compare the characters to their predecessors, and unpack the quality of its ending. In this episode's b-side, we debate which classic monster would win in a fight, ponder whether Dracula could turn Frankenstein's monster into a vampire, and discuss the quality of Rob Zombie's vinyls. This episode contains spoilers, beginning at 41:22.
