Meet The Munsters with first teaser trailer for Rob Zombie’s reboot

June 8, 2022 by Gary Collinson

Rocker and horror director Rob Zombie is taking us back to Mockingbird Lane this year with a live-action reboot of the classic American sitcom The Munsters, and we now have our first look at the upcoming feature film from Universal 1440 Entertainment.

In the teaser trailer released today, we’re introduced to Zombie’s take on Herman Munster, Lily Munster and Grandpa, played by Jeff Daniel Phillips, Sheri Moon Zombie and Daniel Roebuck respectively. Check it out here…

Meanwhile, speaking to EW, Zombie has revealed how he has remained faithful to the family friendly nature of the series, unlike his previous directorial efforts such as House of 1000 Corpses and The Devil’s Rejects:

“It’s 100 percent in the spirit of the show,” said Zombie. “I didn’t want it to be different. I wanted to totally retain the vibe that it had in the ’60s. “I knew that if I went in and demanded ‘This movie’s going to be in black and white or forget it!’ we would not be talking about the Munsters right now, because it would have never happened. I guaran-fucking-tee it. But what I did do is I made the colors sort of hyper-real. I noticed when the actors were in their makeup and they were just walking around, getting lunch or whatever, they looked like cartoon characters come to life. They were just so insanely colorful. I was like, I have to light the movie in the same fashion. It really seemed at all times like a live action cartoon, which was really exciting.”

The Munsters features a cast that includes Jeff Daniel Phillips as Herman Munster, Sheri Moon Zombie as Lily Munster, Daniel Roebuck as Grandpa, Richard Brake as Dr. Henry Augustus Wolfgang, Sylvester McCoy as Igor, Catherine Schell as Zoya Krupp, Jorge Garcia as Floop and Cassandra Peterson as Barbara Carr.

The Munsters is set for release later this year.
