It feels like a mishmash of 1970s television tropes but Reb Brown physically looks the part and has charm in spades that makes up for the deviations from the origin and a story that drags heavily despite being just over an hour and a half.

I’m fatter, with higher blood pressure and I have to crap in a box and send it off through UPS.

I never feel hopeless until I have to check in to a doctor’s appointment and fill out a questionnaire about feeling hopeless.

This is the last of the series that I remember having read but I didn’t remember much and like the previous installments, it was pure fun, especially getting Chester’s version of Bunnicula’s origin.
