    • Trivia
      After the movie premiered, children would frequently recognize Raul Julia as Gomez Addams out in public, which according to him, always brought a smile to his face. Julia stated that Gomez Addams was by far his favorite role, and his family said this recognition was especially meaningful to him in the final months of his life because he loved performing for children and making them happy whenever the opportunity presented itself.

      When Fester first comes out of the escape chute, he comes out of Pugsley's, which is the left one. Later, when Wednesday escapes before the Mamushka, the escape chute covers are switched. When Tully, the doctor and Fester are trying to get into the vault and come out of the chute, the covers are switched back.

      Girl Scout: I only like all-natural foods and beverages, organically grown, with no preservatives. Are you sure they're real lemons?

      Pugsley: Yes.

      Girl Scout: Well, I'll tell you what. I'll buy a cup if you buy a box of my delicious Girl Scout cookies. Do we have a deal?

      Wednesday: Are they made from real Girl Scouts?

    An amusing film from the popular TV series "The Addams Family"
    "The Adams Family" is a very funny film that is very under rated. With a great all star cast you get just what you expect, a great comedy. The TV show was already funny enough, and then the movie came and I was on the floor laughing. It's fun to see a happy dysfunctional family. No, I'm not talking about "The Osbornes". All the characters are great and you really get into it. If you can tell me that you honestly did not get one laugh from this film, there is something very wrong with you. Because it is a very funny film. I would recommend this to anyone. It's a good watch on any day.
