The Addams Family (2/10) Movie CLIP - The Hot Seat (1991) HD

CLIP DESCRIPTION:
Wednesday (Christina Ricci) and Puggsley (Jimmy Workman) play in their electric chair.

FILM DESCRIPTION:
Inspired more by the 1960s TV series than by the original Charles Addams New Yorker cartoons, The Addams Family proved to be one of the more successful of the TV shows-turned-movies of the 1990s. The film opens on a recreation of the magazine cartoon wherein the ghoulish Addamses prepare to pour hot oil upon a group of merry Christmas carolers. After a series of vignettes which establish the characters of Gomez (Raul Julia), Morticia (Anjelica Huston), Wednesday (Christina Ricci), Pugsley (Jimmy Workman) and family servants Lurch (Carel Struycken) and Thing (Christopher Hart), the plot proper gets under way. A stranger, played by Christopher Lloyd, shows up on the Addams doorstep, claiming to be long-lost Uncle Fester. It appears, however, that Lloyd is a ringer, in cahoots with attorney Tully Alford (Dan Hedaya) to strip the Addamses of their fortune. In their usual against-the-grain fashion, the Addams Family seems to delight in the possibility that they're being hoodwinked-indeed, not even kidnapping or death threats dampen the Addams clan's joy of living (or should we say dying?). The Addams Family served as the directorial debut of cinematographer Barry Sonnenfeld.

Awhh... Look at that deranged smile on that adorable face... so cuuute!

[CPT]

You only see Wednesday genuinely smile when she's inflicting harm on others, especially Pugsley.

[tigo]

I love how she says "So it can kill you." XD!

[thesarahcaitlinshow]

The evilness in her eyes is brilliant!

[Yakuso]

We're going to play a game. It's called, "Is There a God?"

[BigBossMusick]

And Debbie REALLY expected an electric chair to work on them? It was already in their home, it's like a Shiatsu to them!

[lrry_]

The English subtitles are very helpful it makes me understand every word they said

[nerdetteb.]

As deranged as this family is, I feel Gomez and Morticia spoil their kids from time to time.

The way Morticia says "I said no..." and then all they had to do was beg and she caves in with a soft "Oh, alright..." with that sultry smile.

lol.

Yup. She's a spoiler.

[dennishanes]

The dark smiles on morticia and wednesday and the fact that pugsley begged to be electrocuted. But that's the families style- macabre.

[sailtheplains]

"I'm going to electrocute him."
"But we're *late*"
Pugsley:
"Oh all right" xDD

[d.i.d.i.p.p]

Wednesday- it has to warm up" pugsley- why Wednesday- so it can kill 😂😂😂😂😂😂 it's just brother and sister getting along nicely

[mwinowyll]

"...Don't worry, we told her college first."

Priorities.

[GraylockVO]

the way Wednesday just says "it has to warm up" made my heart melt, she is cute af

[vgernyc]

You cut the best part.
Wednesday "Get in the chair."
Pugsley "Why?"
Wednesday "So we can play a game."
Pugsley "What game?"
Wednesday "It's called....Is there a god?"

[fernandananda]

[bronykingamethystrain]

Oh he'll be fine. One thing about the Addams Family is that they could be thrown into the sun only to come back and tell you it was fun
