Gonzo & Pepe the prawn spend a night in the Haunted Mansion. All the HM roles are replaced with muppets like Miss Piggy is the head in the seance crystal ball. Taraji Henson & Will Arnett are leads and there’s cameos, mostly in the graveyard including Ed Asner (kinda creepy since he’s dead now) and Danny Trejo, who gets off a taco line, omen of his few lines of dialog.
I liked this much more than I thought I would. That cheesy muppet recipe of bad jokes made for a good fit and even got a tiny chuckle at one point. I’m surprised how well the formula holds up - perhaps it’s the nostalgia of it for me. My family watched the show all the time - my parents and me as a kid, not Tara - I’m not sure that she’s seen much of the muppets. I don’t think the jokes will work unless you know the show.
Pepe was killing me. Such a great muppet.
This was better than the movie. Sorry Greg.
