Munster, Go Home! (1966)

The Munsters leave the familiar haunts of 1313 Mockingbird Lane and travel to England so that the easily excitable Herman can claim an inheritance.
There’s an occasional America/England joke, but mostly it’s the usual kind of family-friendly comedy that made the TV Series popular.
It was the first time that fans got to see the deathly pallor of the cast in colour. If you prefer the B+W versions, you may be a little disgusted by the 60s Technicolor and the heavy-handed makeup.
