This sequel reunites the entire cast from The Addams Family (1991), expanding it further when Morticia and Gomez (Anjelica Huston and Raul Julia) have a third child and decide to hire a nanny. Enter Debbie Jellinsky (Joan Cusack), whose true intentions are to marry Uncle Fester (Christopher Lloyd)... and murder him to inherit his wealth. To distract the too-wise older children Wednesday (Christina Ricci) and Pugsley (Jimmy Workman), Debbie convinces Morticia and Gomez to send them to Camp Chippewa, the worst nightmare for two staunchly indoor kids. Perfect for every goth child and their adults, this sequel has a darker edge than the first film, likely leading to its growing status as a cult classic.
