You have them mixed up with The Munsters. They aren’t based on horror tropes, they’re just a family of bizarre eccentrics bordering on the monstrous but they love each other so much that they’re strangely functional.

"a rare sight in movies" Because it is rare in real life as well. ;)

[@ryanstauffer119]

There are other versions of the Addams Family in which Gomez and Morticia have had a few problems occur in their marriage. For starters, in an episode of the 60s TV show, Cousin Itt is trying to find a career and they think maybe he could try being a marriage counselor. With that, Gomez and Morticia play a fake couple for him so he can give them advice. During the fake argument, Gomez says something in which Morticia thinks according to the tone of his voice is true. She thinks she is a waste and is a toy to him. Because of this, Morticia doesn’t let Gomez sleep in their bedroom that night and he goes to sleep in the living room. They let it all be in the past the next morning. Another time, which was the most serious, was in the Broadway musical. Morticia notices that she has crow’s feet and fears she is getting old. She asks Gomez if she looks old and Gomez replies with “Not from where I’m standing” after he took a few steps back. He tries to make it a little better by saying at dinner he had a dream. He says that he was a goat trying to impress a female goat. Then he says a crow appeared saying “I will walk on your face!” Gomez he said to the crow to leave them alone, but then the female goat turned into a giant plum in which he took a bite out of and said it “It was nice!” Morticia then says “So I’m a goat who turned into a giant fat plum?!” Morticia also finds out that Gomez had been keep a secret that Wednesday is engaged to be married, thus causing trust issues since Gomez never kept anything from her before. In addition to feeling old, she says she doesn’t want to end up like Grandma who came for the weekend, but is still living in the attic 13 years later smoking weed, unwanted. She even says how even though they both like speaking French, they’ve never been to Paris. Morticia actually points out that she wants to see the sewers there most of all. With the thought of losing Morticia, Gomez thinks about killing himself with a knife, but ghosts of his ancestors stop him and help him know he must win her back. Morticia actually tries to abandon the family due to these terrible feelings she has. Gomez then wins her back with saying how they should live before they die, laugh before they cry, and they do their first tango in a long time. Just like in this movie, Gomez asks “Are you unhappy, my darling?” and Morticia says “Oh yes. Yes! Completely!”

"I would die for her, I would kill for her. Either way, what bliss." and "To live without you, only that would be torture." are two of the most romantic lines I've ever heard in a film. Morticia and Gomez are couple goals!!

[@purplepower]

He will forever belong to the Adams Family

[@ChefNourhan]

this whole cast was perfection! Rip

[@oliverbrownlow5615]

Raul Julia had a long career in musicals on and Off-Broadway, performing in *Your Own Thing,* the Galt MacDermot-John Guare musical version of *Two Gentlemen of Verona,* the Joseph Papp production of *The Threepenny Opera,* a revival of Frank Loesser's *Where's Charley?* and Maury Yeston's *Nine.* Another great film role for Julia was in *Kiss of the Spider Woman* (1985).

[@breezus3928]

Much like Hugh Jackman playing Wolverine: technically he was too tall but he was absolutely PERFECTLY cast anyway!

[@katwebbxo]

He will always be Gomez to me 🖤

[@filthycasual8187]

The Addams Family is based on an anthology of one-panel dark humor comic strips created for the New Yorker magazine by Charles Addams. With the exception of Cousin Itt and Thing (and possibly Lurch as well), all the Addamses are actually human. They're just... creepy, cooky, mysterious, spooky, and altogether ooky. Definitely give Addams Family Values a go next. And maybe a few episodes of the old TV show from the 60's.

[@bespectacledheroine7292]

There's no series that's going to do Halloween episodes better than this one, both of them epitomize the spirit perfectly. Definitely those ones should be watched.

[@greyscalesx]

Them being humans was true in the OG comic but they've been reinvented/more added since the 60s show. Which explains how they survive all of what they do and how they can use magic. The og Addamses meaning fester and Gomez ancestors were undead raised by necromancers hence the superhuman strength and tendency to to recussitate enherited by pugsley and Wednesday too. The grandma is Morticia's mother their bloodline the Frumps are witches. Wednesday has inherited the magic from her mol side however only when she I'll turn 16 will she inherit the Frumps magic of her mother. So basically the mother side are witches who at some point has ancestors who also have been bitten by a vampire and the father's side are superhuman due to necromacy. Due to their ancestors have been turned undead by necromancers in the period of crusades. The butler is an undead made of several dead corpses who have been reanimated, hence how he's slow and can't speak. Cousin it is a monster and the hand is an experiment of the kids. A body part that was reanimated through necromancy which volumes are kept in their vault. If any of this is human to you I think you're wildly off.

[@oliverbrownlow5615]

Margaret Hamilton (the Witch from the 1939 version of *The Wizard of Oz* ) appeared in three episodes as "Granny Frump": the two part "Morticia's Romance" (Season Two, episodes 2 & 3, 1965) and "Happy Birthday, Grandma Frump" (Season Two, episode 22, 1966).

[@BeyondTheLizzy]

I remember watching the animated version on Cartoon Network I think

[@lisathuban8969]

Don't forget to mention, the Addams Family is almost EIGHTY years old! That family has been around a while. There was a 1960's TV show as well.

[@CarolinePhoenixMe]

Oddly enough, if you think about it, the Addams family is a perfect family! Yes, they have their own peculiarities, but: 1) they do not wish evil to anyone (if not threatened, of course); 2) Gomez and Morticia love each other as rare couples do (in the TV series, it is emphasized by Fester: "Just look at those two lovebirds, still as much in love as on the day they met"); 3) all the family members are ready to protect each other when needed and share interests. Hope you'll watch the 2019 toon version. Cool in its own way

[@wolfofthewest8019]

I'm going to have to disagree with the "do not wish evil to anyone" part. I mean, unless you consider Christmas carolers threatening... And really, you just know that Gomez has murdered a few people in his youth.

[@CarolinePhoenixMe]

@@wolfofthewest8019 Right. Well, the stories vary, and some may be darker than the rest...

[@jdb101585]

They don't wish evil on people...but at the same time, they don't view death in the same way most people do. So that's going to cause some friction!

[@CarolinePhoenixMe]

@@jdb101585 That's just it. In the TV series, they are very hospitable, but, considering that their house is stuffed with traps (great fun, huh?), the consequences are... emm... quite eerie for the visitors. However, sometimes they are used intentionally: in the episode describing the story of how Morticia and Gomez met, it is revealed that initially Gomez was to marry her sister Ophelia, whom he immediately disliked, so Fester and Lurch set some traps for her to shoo her off... but did not succeed because they worked on Gomez (accidentally!)

[@d3l3tes00n]

@@wolfofthewest8019 Carolers ARE threatening yes.. my ears would be bleeding from musical murder

[@nickmanzo8459]

This one and it’s sequel are some of my very favorite family Halloween movies. The Addams Family started off as a comic strip in a magazine in the very early 20th century. It’s never ever been out of the popular consciousness since then. The TV show in the 1960s was amazing partially because the parents were some of the first on television that had an obvious sex life.

[@ChefNourhan]

Couldn't agree more

[@DragonKingX78]

Yeah, love both movies and the 1960's TV show.

[@kay-jay1581]

There was also a series in the early 2000’s I used to watch it every night as a kid.

[@lillykawaiifox]

Gomez and Morticia are literally the BEST couple in cinema. This is one of my comfort movies since I was little, this and the second one are two of my favourite movies of all. I definitely recommend watching the second one! Fun fact: Fester turning on the light bulb with his mouth is a thing they got from the 60s tv show. I decided to watch the show from the 60s last year and it's SO good! They didn't change much of their personality in the movies. A few small details changed but nothing important. Fun fact 2: During the party scene you can see a blonde woman with braids and flowers on her head.... that's Ophelia, Morticia's older sister. In the 60s show she was betrothed to Gomez (kinda of an arrangement between the families) but when he met Morticia they fell in love immediately and he married her instead. The headless doll Wednesday carries around used to belong to Morticia when she met Gomez.

[@whitenoisereacts]

Wow!!! These are all so cool

[@lelianavillin2309]

to add on to fact 2 Ophelia actually marries cousin It in the original and the reason is because when gomez decided he wanted to marry morticia instead he and fester devised a plan to get ophelia to fall in love with cousin It so she would cancel the wedding the reason he couldnt was because there parents had arranged the marriage to unite the familys since they were friends it almost didnt work but when ophelia got to the alter she ended up saying she didnt want to marry gomez and the parents didnt want the wedding to be in vain so gomez married moticia and ophelia married cousin it. also the reason morticia cuts the heads off of the flowers she grows is because gomez is allergic to them this is another reason why he and ophelia werent a good match as she has flowers growing out of her hair.

[@henninggirl261]

The Addams Family's net worth is around $2 billion. Gomez keeps investing in weird things he likes. He bought a swamp for ‘scenic value,’ and subsequently discovered massive oil deposits underneath. He purchased a mummified hand at a flea market, later determined to be priceless remains of an Egyptian pharaoh, etc. Also, Morticia has her own lighting in both films, because of course she does!

[@whitenoisereacts]

What a legend

[@christopherwall2121]

In the TV show, Gomez was a defense attorney, and he prided himself on his absolutely dismal record of successes; after all, think of how many criminals got put away thanks to him. In other adaptations, he basically picks investments at random, and they almost always soar as soon as he invests in them.

Gomez and Morticia are the embodiment of relationship goals. To be that in love with no loss in the passion for so long, it’s just beautiful. And Christina Ricci’s Wednesday steals the show in this and the sequel, definitely had a childhood crush on her, helped by being very close in age.

My theory (about the Movie Addamses, at least) is that they are all somehow immortal. Explains the kid's games; the lingering joyous melancholy; even "wake the dead", if we assume that -after a time- they grow tired of life and just decide to "die", sleeping the sleep of the Dead in their graves.

[@lynnbowers4722]

I think the magic of The Addams Family is that they all totally embrace who they are and revel in it. No shame, no doubt, just unconditional love of themselves and each other. That love of life juxtaposed against what the straight world sees as monstrous and macabre is fertile ground for humorous situations.

[@melissaisloud7404]

Morticia and Gomez have the most healthy relationship in movie history (at least of that time period) and no one can convince me otherwise. Plus they're devoted to their kids and the rest of their family, including becoming friends with the (now ex?) wife of someone who tried to steal everything from them just because she's friends with cousin It. I've got nostalgia goggles on, but I can say this this movie has held up pretty well for the last two decades :)

I like that it's him bonding with the kids that brings Fester back around subconsciously, also I've been wondering this for a while: since that story Craven told them about finding Fester tangled in a tuna net in Miami turned out to be true, does that imply she knew he really was Fester all along? Especially that line while she's waiting/looking for him: "I never should've used him."

Fun fact, Gomez Addams is one of the top 10 wealthiest fictional characters in all of literature. His investments are all unorthodox, purchases that should never turn a profit, yet Gomez Addams turns them to gold. He purchased a swamp that no one wanted and discovered an untapped oil reservoir. He owns his own crocodile farm called Crocodiles Unlimited. Despite his seemingly aloof personality, Gomez is one of the smartest business investors in literary history.

Any time you raise questions like, “how do they do this?” “Why are they able to do that?” “What is that?” The answer is always, “Because they’re Addamses.”

[@christineirving4491pluviophile]

And 'Addams Family Values' is even better!

[@LucasCarvalho-wj1vb]

This is one of my FAVORITES movies ever. You guys definitely should watch Addams Family 2. Wednesday has a bigger role in the sequel and it's amazing!!!

[@thehomeofrainbows]

You would love the sequel too

[@kristindominguez7927]

Family goals! the Addams family were designed to be an opposing fold to the "typical" American family. Like the father that is unemotional and not hands on with the kids. The wife that is demur and complacent mother. The kids are like the son who is into sports and all-around American boy. The princess daughter and the rough and stupid brother. The rude and bossy mother-in-law.

[@multifandom5942]

You have to react to The Addams Family Values. It's better imo

[@SevenEllen]

You must watch The Addams Family Values!

[@meredithmiller7016]

Oh my goodness, please do Addams Family Values! What I love about this family is that they love each other and they function well, they just have different interests. I have watched the tv show from the 60s multiple times lol it is a little different than the movies but both are enjoyable. My favorite has always been Wednesday. Very excited for that show coming out this year!

[@twofacetoo75]

An example of how the Addamses really are the best family ever: in the original version of the script, 'Fester' really was just some random thug who looked a lot like him, and the family ended up liking him and his weird murderous ways so much, they basically adopted him as the new Fester. It ended up being changed since the cast of the movie were upset and felt it wasn't fair to the real Fester who might have tragically died to be 'replaced', so it was rewritten to be the real Fester all along. It's definitely a better ending, but how nice is it that the Addams Family would happily accept a strange, murderous, abused person as one of their own without any hesitation? Doesn't matter if you're not a blood relative, you can still be part of the family.

[@terrylewis_]

The Addams Family and The Addams Family Values are both so good.

[@CraftyWizard23]

Awesome reaction!! Glad you both liked it. Morticia is my favorite character too! Now you guys have to watch a sin react to the sequel Addams Family Values! And I do hope you will react to the upcoming Netflix show WEDNESDAY, which premieres next month.

[@whitenoisereacts]

I think we wil!!

[@michelle6337]

"They're creepy and they're kooky, mysterious and spooky, they're altogether ooky, the Addams family. Their house is a museum, when people come to see 'em, they really are a scream, the Addams family. So put a witch's shawl on, a broomstick you can crawl on, we're gonna pay a call on, the Addams family." Still one of my favorite theme songs to this day!

[@FlinxWeasel]

Morticia and Gomez are the ultimate relationship goal.

[@besupaaa]

I think it is so exciting to watch peolple movies I've seen SOOO MANY TIMES for the first time ever. I like the Addams because they are the "weird ones" but questioning how the "normal people" have super weird values and ideas, and they would be the weird ones.

[@the_nikster1]

Morticia and Gomez Addams are straight couple goals. anyone would be lucky to have a relationship as healthy and loving as theirs. also, kudos for figuring out that “Gordon” was actually Fester the whole time. ❤

[@0203darkstar]

Ah I love the Addams Family. Watched the movies and the cartoon when I was younger. The thing that's so lovely about them is no matter how weird or not weird someone in the family is they accept them. Also let's be real here. Gomez and Morticia are THE couple goals.

[@lucyhardman2267]

I've just realised that the girl scout is Harmony from Buffy the Vampire Slayer. My evening is complete.

[@02michellemybell02]

Love your reactions as always guys. RIP to the actor Raul Julia. He's so good as Gomez. I love Anjoca Houston as Morticia. Guys, wouldn't Johnny Depp be amazing as Gomez in a Adam's Family remake. That would be so good. Who agrees ? ❤️🙏🙂

[@wackynicolecsu]

Great reaction!!! You definitely have to see the second one!!!! Family Values

[@D.J.-]

Great movie (part 2 is great as well) and it is perfectly cast!! 🎃

[@agenttheater5]

5:10 You can find Charles Addams's description of each other characters that he wrote out for the tv show - he draw them as single frame cartoons for the New Yorker (or the New York Times, I forget) and then when they turned it into a tv show in the 60s they asked him to come up with the names (got the inspiration for Morticia when he came across a list of morticians in the phone book). The names are Lurch - the butler Thing - the hand Gomez - the father Morticia - the mother Wednesday - the daughter Pugsley - the son Uncle Fester - the uncle (though in the 60s show he was Morticia's uncle, her maiden name was Frump, and her mother was played by the original Wicked Witch of the West) Grandmama - here she's Morticia's mother, in the tv show she was Gomez's mother, they joked about it in the 2009 musical, 'My mother I thought she was your mother!'

[@Nat-B]

Wait until you watch the sequel, Addams Family Values. It's so good!

[@andysmith1771]

Can't wait for the sequel!

[@jean-paulaudette9246]

27:14 I suddenly realize they have a portion of their yard dedicated to 'the shallow graves.'

[@samanthanickson6478]

the addams family is actually based on a series of cartoons by charles addams from the 1950’s. they we’re awesome as hell, way ahead of their time. if you liked this one, wait until you see the sequel, addams family values.

[@staceytuhey9372]

I saw Raul Julia on Broadway in Man of La Mancha and he was so amazing. I love him and Anjelica Huston in this

[@Cantmakeupmymindonaname]

I wount repeat what others have said about the tv show (black and white. Set earlier i.e. wensday is younger) but the fun fact about the black and white show : to create the perfect scarry grey they painted the addams house pink. Which was also only used for very wealthy familys as at this pink used to be difficult to make the same shade (like orange and purples) therefore being more expensive! I also believe the tv show house is a museum now. As for the addams family values please oh please! I did not know you didnt know this was a thing but i grew up on these movies and quotes them often. I didnt grow up on Munsters (the Frankenstein/vampire/werewolf family) but i wouldnt mind seeing an episode reaction to them as they are considered tv (more like fan) rivals with addams family.

[@oliverbrownlow5615]

Their house is a museum/ When people come to see 'em/ They really are a screa-um/ The Addams Family!

[@Cantmakeupmymindonaname]

@@oliverbrownlow5615 snap snap

[@oliverbrownlow5615]

There was a theatrical Munsters film based on the TV series with most of the original cast called *Munster, Go Home!* (1966).

[@Cantmakeupmymindonaname]

@@oliverbrownlow5615 oh that could be fun

[@kennethcook9406]

You do realize that Dr. Pinderscloss is also Frau Blucher (cue horses from Young Frankenstein.)

[@scombs6543]

Idk if someone else said it in the comments, but The Addams Family started as a comic strip in the 1930’s created by Charles Addams, and it was very popular in the 30’s and 40’s. In the 1960’s they decided to make a tv show based on the comic strips, which is where the Addams Family as everyone knows it originated from, and created many of the jokes and characteristics used in the 90’s movies. This is also where the iconic Addams Family theme came from. After the second 90’s Addams Family movie, Raul Julia (Gomez) passed away, cutting off any possibility of a third film with the same cast. A few made for TV movies were made with different casts (Tim Curry actually played Gomez in one), and there were cartoons as well. Most recently, the Addams’ have gotten two animated movies (which aren’t too good imo), and a series about Wednesday Addams is supposed to come out on Netflix soon. Just the fact that The Addams Family is so iconic that it has last for 90 years just says it all. It’s such a fun series and concept.

[@kevinsizemore2053]

There is also a Broadway musical, "The Addams Family Musical" , which had Nathan Lane as Gomez and Bebe Neuwirth as Morticia for the original cast

[@kay-jay1581]

Im hugely surprised that He has never heard of the Addams Family. 😂 I Guess It’s better late than never. Can’t wait to see the reaction.

[@CathleenMJennings80]

The Addams Family was originally in the New Yorkers comic section in the 30s, THEN became a tv series in the 60s.

[@ThunderForce2000]

You have to react to The Witches from 1990 with Angelica Huston too.

[@SevenEllen]

Oh my god yes!

[@willcool713]

The best thing about the modern Addams Family movies is that they're as good as the original sitcom. The man who played Gomez (John Astin) was very hard to live up to, for anyone. Raul Julia did as well as anyone could, and the rest of the cast contributed extremely well, to make the whole production work really well. I was surprised how well Christopher Lloyd did, because the original Fester was cast much differently. But it worked. If you want to see the originals, in B&W (unnecessarily, color was common then), KZbin had a dedicated, live, Addams Family channel, last I looked.

[@renees4577]

OOO. The second Addams Family movie is so much better than the first!

[@legionaireb]

1:12 - The Addams Family originated as a comic by a guy named Charles Addams. It was adapted into a sitcom in the 60s, then a short-lived cartoon, then into this movie, then they got another short-lived cartoon, a sequel to the movie, and then an animated movie a year or two ago. Now there's a spin-off series featuring Wednesday. 4:56 - You're confusing The Addams' for The Munsters. An easy mistake to make. 7:17 - Christopher Lloyd. 10:34 - They're human. They're just...creepy. Kookie. Mysterious. Spooky. You know, just sorta...all together 'ooky.' 21:30 - If you like this, wait until you see the play in the sequel.

[@ATSaale]

The hand effect is just a guy on a skateboard or like a dolly rolling around and running his fingers on the ground and then they edit the guy out. It was a pretty impressive effect for the early 90s

[@Stephie_L]

I have just started the reaction but I really hope you guys will do Addams Family Values (1993). That's the one that has been stuck in my head since I was a kid since I love Joan Cusack. But anyway, I look forward to revisiting this one with you guys, it's been ages....I'm already humming the theme and clicking my fingers :)

[@peterschmidt4348]

Please watch the Tim Burton movie "MARS ATTACKS!". It's packed with stars!

[@astoldbykat]

That's the best part of any version of the Addams Family: they subvert every idea of what a "normal" happy family should be, and they're probably the happiest family you see in the movie. Morticia and Gomez are my favorite movie couple of all time; it's so obvious they're in love with each other regardless of how long they've been together, and they aren't afraid to be open and honest with each other.

[@SkaldIduna]

I love this version! The origional TV show was based on comics by Charles Addams. Check out the "Our Crowd." Thanks guys! ❤‍🔥

[@nekane6168]

Info: On their way to the vault They use a "góndola" (that long boat with the long stick) They are typical of Venecia (Venice, Italy). For a pretty high price a "gondolieri" (góndola driver) takes you through the canals. For a higher price he sings. Expensive, but you can't visit Venecia and not do It. Gómez seems to be italian or has italian heritage, so It makes some sense.

[@suttonmaeivysmith9831]

The second movie is a must 👏🏻 🖤

[@3DJapan]

In the original sitcom Thing was a hand but it always popped out of a box on the table so it was pretty obvious that it was just someone under the table with a hole in the table/box.

[@katerinathurnova3385]

hi guys thanks for your response to this movie. You made me happy, because it is my favorite since i was a child. Angelina as Morticia is amazing 👍 beautiful black humor😄😄

[@whitenoisereacts]

It’s honestly just so wholesome

[@nikkiej.5875]

I love The Addams Family. They’re all strange but in their own way. It’s such a classic movie to watch every Halloween. The Addams Family Family Values is really really good too. I hope you’ll be doing a reaction. I haven’t watched the original show that came out in the 60s but I would like to. I love black and white movies and TV shows.

[@donovandelaney3171]

Our world would be a better place if more families were like the Addams Family and the Munsters.

[@PatrickPrejusa]

Charles Addams created a comic strip that inspired all of the tv series and movies. The only character actually inspired by a horror movie monster is lurch. He drew lurch based on his friend virus Karlin who played Frankenstein
