Directed by Barry Sonnenfeld • 1993 • United States
Starring Angelica Huston, Raúl Juliá, Christina Ricci
Pop culture’s favorite family of ghouls returns to the big screen in their second cinematic outing—even more wickedly satirical and delightfully macabre than the original. It’s love at first fright when Gomez (Raul Juliá) and Morticia (Anjelica Huston) welcome a new addition to the Addams household—Pubert, their soft, cuddly, mustachioed baby boy. As Fester (Christopher Lloyd) falls hard for voluptuous nanny Debbie Jellinksy (Joan Cusack), Wednesday (Christina Ricci) and Pugsley (Jimmy Workman) discover she’s a black-widow murderess who plans to add Fester to her collection of dead husbands. The family’s future grows even bleaker when the no-good nanny marries Fester and has the kids shipped off to summer camp. But Wednesday still has a Thing or two up her sleeve . . .
