Here's a man whose most famous role was that of Grandpa on The Munsters, where he always looked like he was missing his dentures and had run face first into Bela Lugosi. After the series ended, nothing much was heard from any of the actors except for Fred Gwynne, but Al came roaring back when Howard Stern let him loose on an unsuspecting radio audience.

CUSTOMER REVIEW:
A good formula for the early "TV to Big Screen" movies.
Great movie (get the DVD instead) VHS is dead.
All the original cast (except Priest as Marylin), return to head to
Englad where Herman has inherited the Munster estate. But what they
don't realize is that the mysterious Griffin is out to scare away
the Munster family back to America.
If you liked the TV Show, this is a great movie for your collection
(nowhere near the awful one from NBC in the 80s' "Munsters Revenge")

CUSTOMER REVIEW:
The last nail in the Munsters coffin by NBC
This is the last time the Munsters were seen together, and in a very bad NBC 'Made for TV' movie at that (shame on you NBC!!).
In a Nut Shell...
Munsters are honored in a wax museum, but the evil owner of the wax museum decides to incorporate robotics into the wax figures of the Munsters and the rest of the exhibits and have them perform criminal activity. And when the police go looking they arrest the real versions.
The make-up is nowhere as good as the 1960's "Munster Go Home" movie, but if you are Munster fan like myself, you need to have this in your collection.

• A list that truly sucks: Vampire time again!
With the movie Twilight coming out this week, I'm hard at work coming up with tons of vampire lists for the St. Pete Times. Among my chores: Naming the 5 best movie vampires, 5 worst movie vampires, 5 best TV vampires, 5 best female vampires ... and 5 best vampire hunters. As usual, I could use your help! Surely the '80s was full of all these categories. But feel free to suggest ones from other decades as well. Some that come to mind: KIEFER SUTHERLAND vs. JASON PATRIC (The Lost Boys): Kief
• The top 20 most ?bloodsucking? Hollywood vampires of all time
With Halloween just around the corner, a new list of top 20 most ''bloodsucking'' Hollywood vampires of all time has been compiled. The list has been tailored by Fox News. Stephen Moyer of ''True Blood'' tops the list with his deadly vampire antics. Second in the list is Frank Langela in blockbuster ''Dracula'', third is Kiefer Sutherland In ''The Lost Boys'' followed by David Bowie in ''The Hunger''. The 5th position has been nabbed by Chris Sarandon for his role in Fright Night. At num
• TVXOHOF, OCTOBER '08: THE MUNSTERS ENTOMBED, ER, ENSHRINED
For the month of October, it's tradition for the TV Crossover Hall of Fame to induct a Toobworld monster, or a TV character who can be considered monstrous. In the past, this has included the Witch Doctor, Dr. Bombay, Tribbles, Jack the Ripper, Sweet the Demon, Lee Harvey Oswald, and the Frankenstein Monsters (including Herman Munster). Of course, we've also inducted others during October who had special occasions to mark during that month, like Captain Kangaroo, Dr. Emil Szoda, Frank Barone, an
• What ever happened to The Munsters - with grades
If you were alive in the 1960?s, 1970?s, or 1980?s there?s litte chance that you haven?t heard of The Munsters and most likely you?ve even seen an episode or 72 of them. I know that my favorite babysitter when I was growing up was the TV and thankfully now that I have the ability to have my children raised by TV, the circle of life will continue. Let?s check out Herman and the gang? #headline { margin: 0; background-image: url(http://retardzone.com/uploads/2008/09/astroland/title.jpg); backgro
• On NFL Boulevard, We?re The ?Third Rock? Family
Okay, admit it. We?re not like other families living on NFL Boulevard. Our house is the one painted a really weird color. Our yard isn?t quaffed like other houses down the block. Oh yeah, there?s those freaky 2 a.m. noises coming from rooms upstairs. And we can?t forget the creepy uncle who?s coming and going at all hours. It doesn?t make us bad people. We?re just different. As much as we?re the Bungles, we?re more like the Bundys in shoulder pads. Or the Munsters in cups (minus the hot, blon

After a 30 year career on radio in markets from New York to San Francisco to satellite and network, David H. Lawrence XVII decided to make a change. He hung up his headphones and retired from hosting 3 network/satellite radio shows to head to Los Angeles, to concentrate solely on acting in front of the camera.
Lili VonSchtupp* needed a fresh start. She moved to Washington DC and got her dream job. "I did affiliate relations for Online Tonight with David Lawrence. I slowly worked my way into the producer's chair by impressing David with my assets. (not those assets), my ability to make a CAT5 cable Ethernet cable, type (those of you in the chat room-shut up!) and work a phone system.
