The Addams Family could be a 1991 black comedy film based mostly on the characters, from the cartoon of the same name, created by cartoonist Charles Addams, featuring songs and a video from rap artist MC Hammer ("Addams Groove"). The movie was originally developed by Orion Photos (which at the time owned the rights to the tv series on which the movie was based mostly). But, due to the studio's money issues, Paramount Footage began co-producing the film and ended up releasing the movie in the U.S., with Orion retaining the international rights (these rights are currently owned by Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer through their 1997 purchase of Orion). The 1993 sequel, Addams Family Values, was distributed worldwide by Paramount. The Addamses are a family of wealthy and eccentric individuals who live together in a very Second Empire mansion and share a typical interest within the bizarre and therefore the macabre. The characters 1st appeared in cartoons in The New Yorker magazine within the Thirties, and later gained popularity within the defunct TV series, The Addams Family. The film centers on the daily life of the family, and therefore the come of Gomez Addams's long-lost brother Fester, played by Christopher Lloyd. The film also stars Raúl Juliá, Anjelica Huston, and Christina Ricci.
