Sadly, I never actively witnessed the legendary TV-series starring John Astin as the original Gomez Addams. I'm from a younger generation so I only heard about its brilliancy by the massive cult-followings. I am a big fan of the concept of sarcastic black comedy, however, and therefore I was very much looking forward to Sonnenfeld's film. The daily rituals of this family are just great! Mom and dad and their macabre passion for each other, siblings constantly thinking up deadly games and a bodiless hand racing around the massive castle! It's all very black and depressingly portrayed, but the humor is hilarious and ultra-effective. The characters remain serious no matter what madness they proclaim and even the driest forms of vulgarity are considered to be the most normal things in the world… The scenery and locations are simply brilliant and all the side-characters that pass by – way too many to list – carry a special place in my heart. The main storyline in `The Addams Family' actually is of minor importance… A long lost uncle returns to the family, but he's brainwashed by greedy lawyers in order to steal the Addams ‘ fortune. Look closely to this film…the amount of jokes and funny, little details there to discover is endless and terrifically worked out. This may very well be one of the funniest comedies I ever saw, but I can imagine it's not for everyone's tastes. Sensitive topics such as death, masochism and torture are constantly being mocked!

I just have to mention the cast! I hope they paid good money to whoever was in charge of the casting… Every character in the family is just delightfully chosen and – as a viewer – you'll always associate them with the roles they played here. Anjelica Huston as the gorgeous witch, Raul Julia (R.I.P) as the poetic madman, Carl Struyken as Lurch! Not to mention Christina Ricci, who truly bewitched me in all possible ways. She's the same age as I am and when I first saw this film at the theater (aged 10)…I head over heels fell in love with her! It's amazing how she gives image to Wednesday Addams! She doesn't move a muscle when she speaks and her appearance is sexy and spooky at the same time! The Addams Family' is highly recommended entertainment and easily one of those few comedies you'll never grow tired off. The entire cast and crew returned for a sequel in 1993…One that is marvelous as well, by the way.
