The Munsters starts off badly and gets progressively worse with a juvenile script that resembles badly written fan fiction by writter-director Rob Zombie who is a self proclaimed super fan of the original show.
The story, what there is of it, is an attempt at a prequel to the 1960s TV series and shows how Herman Munster was created, met Lilly and how they eventually ended up moving from Transylvania to America. But what fans found funny and endearing in the original show they will find annoying in this sloppy poorly edited mess of a film. Some of the make up was decent but the over exaggerated colours don't do the movie any favours. The acting overall is not great even though there are some decent actors in the movie. The biggest letdown is that the script is weak and cringy and the jokes just aren't funny. There are a few infrequent chuckles to be had but the funniest thing is that someone thought this was a good idea.
