- Steven AndersonAugust 6, 2025Dude, it's Gremlins and that alone is well worth 5 stars! One of my favorite movies from my childhood that still has the power to make me happy today!!!
- RichardOctober 20, 2025Saw this one in cinema, back when Christmas movies could be cute, creepy and wildly inappropriate for kids. Billy gets a Mogwai named Gizmo for Christmas, along with three very specific rules: no bright light, no water and no feeding after midnight. Naturally, all three get broken and chaos ensues. Joe Dante directs with gleeful menace, blending holiday cheer with creature feature madness. The Gremlins go from mischievous to murderous in record time blowing up microwaves, wrecking bars and singing carols with razor teeth. The puppetry is top tier ’80s magic. Gizmo is adorable, Stripe is terrifying and the rest are somewhere between Looney Tunes and nightmare fuel. The cast is pitch perfect: Zach Galligan, Phoebe Cates and Hoyt Axton anchor the madness, while Dick Miller gets his moment as the paranoid neighbor who was right all along. I liked the tone, the practical effects and the way it made cinema nights feel wild, weird and wonderfully off kilter with snow covered streets, gremlin mayhem and a Christmas story that’s anything but cozy.
