The Addams Family Reunion was the third movie of the The Addams Family series, released in 1998. However, most members of the cast did not return to this direct-to-video installment; Raul Julia had died, and Christina Ricci and Jimmy Workman at the ages of 18 were considered too old to play the children. In the end only Carel Struycken and Christopher Hart reprised their roles.
Plot
Discovering his grandparents had developed "Walazhiemer's Disease", Gomez organised a family reunion in the hope of finding a cure. Unfortunately, the company who arranged the reunion mis-spelt his surname and reunited him with the Adams family instead.

Some fans felt that the sequel lacked the macabre humour of the previous films and was inferior to them, while others really liked it. As of 2007, there are no plans for a fourth film. So far the film is only avalible on VHS and has not had a DVD release.
