Addams Family Reunion is the 1998 direct-to-video film that introduced a new live-action version of the family after the beloved 1990s cinema entries. The story follows Gomez and Morticia as they attend a family reunion, only to become tangled in a mix-up involving another branch of the Addams family tree. Tim Curry and Daryl Hannah take over as Gomez and Morticia, bringing a different tone to the roles while the film leans into broad family comedy and spooky slapstick. Although it is not as celebrated as the Barry Sonnenfeld films, it remains part of the wider Addams screen history and helped lead into The New Addams Family television series.
We have rated Addams Family Reunion 5 out of 10, because while it has curiosity value for franchise completists, it struggles to escape the shadow of the 1991 and 1993 films. Tim Curry is always watchable and brings theatrical energy to Gomez, but the film does not have the same gothic elegance, sharp writing or perfectly balanced weirdness that made the previous movies special. The direct-to-video feel is hard to ignore, and the humour often plays broader than fans might want. Still, it is an interesting oddity in the Addams timeline and worth cataloguing for anyone building a complete comic-origin adaptation database.
