There was a point in the '60s when they were made too kiddy and goofy. Of course, being all Gothic and Lolita, I'd rather have what Stephen Sommers did to them, putting more of the folklore and history surrounding them. (Unlike what happened to the latest "Mummy" film, as those guys who wrote "Smallville" probably don't spend as much time in the library as Sommers does...even though he's turned his attention on "G.I. JOE" for the moment.) Of course, I could imagine he'd be in a fetal position after watching this. Remember that John Shuck later played Herman Munster on “The Munsters Today”? :)
