Episode synopsis
One day, an email happened to cross the desk of Christopher, the owner of a sparsely furnished '70s-era house. The email sought volunteers for a sci-fi home makeover. Feeling he had nothing to lose, Christopher signed up and forgot about it ... until he heard from the Monster House producers some weeks later. However, when push came to shove, the house, built in 1976, just screamed Austin Powers, not Starship Enterprise. And so the plan changed from sci-fi to funky.
