Does anyone know a good movie when they see one. I admit the second was kinda stupid, but hilarious. The first tome i saw Gremlins was when i was 9 and it scared the hell out of me, but i finally figured out santa didn’t exist at 8 anyway, didn’t cry. The ending of the first movie made me check under my bed for the next 3 months. And when i heard there was a second one i went back looking under my bed again until i saw it.
When i saw it, i thought, “I check under my bed for those things.” i was actucally expecting it to be scarier.
Now, i think it would’ve been awesome to see the Gremlins spread through New York causing rampage, or another Gizzmo. I wonder why they didn’t do that, if it was because of the angry parents i would’ve though F***k that, i’m making it scarier, and if it was because of budget, i would’ve waited.
Gremlins was one the scariest movies i have ever seen, and Gremlins 2 is one of the silliest movies i have ever seen.
Nice review James, I would give Gremlins a 5 on the scare factor, for my age then, but 4 on a movie by itself. 5 for Gremlins 2 on the silly factor, but 2 for a movie by itself.

I love both of these movies and I few them both as really funny classics.

I actually got to meet Chuck Jones in 1989 at clown college. He compared me to Wile E Coyote. These 2 movies are my top 100 movies list. I actually do not have a top 100 list………but if I did ….they would be on it.

I remember my mother freaked out during the movie theater scene. We were IN a theater when they ripped through the screen and she thought it was real. Epic 80s flick, the sequel… not so Epic but fun.

I saw these movies when I was little. They were the most scary, freaky, and most bad ass thing in existence at the time for me, and I had nightmares for about a year, until I found out they were animatronics. Despite the nightmares, I have fond memories of these movies. The ending of the review made me bounce ( I was sitting on a bouncy ball
) and I hit my head on the roof. Thank god nobody was in the room with me.

“And then there’s this girl Kate, played by Phoebe Cates. She’s hot as shit.”
Agreed.

When the Gremlin flies out of the building creating the Batman symbol…one of the scientists they show is Christopher Lee. I didn’t realize he was even in this movie! Although, I haven’t seen it since I was 12 and I’m 31 now.

do you think they are going to make a gremlins 3 soon
September 5, 2010 at 2:48 pm
Great review, and yeah, the Mogwai is probably the the cutest creature ever created. All the different Gremlins looked cool in Gremlins 2, especially the Spider Gremlin and the Vegetable Gremlin was just random.

The music is just awesome.

Those 2 movies combine the horror and the comedy ..for me who I’am from Greece is weird, but I found that very funny.Also inthe second movie plays the Christopher Lee.Don’t forget that guys

I saw this movie when it came out in summer of 1985 (I wasn’t quite 5 years old yet). The first part of the movie, I thoroughly enjoyed, then suddenly we hit the scene where Gizmo gets wet. To a 4-year-old, that loud screaming and the bubbling fur on a big screen is horrifying!
I also remember being absolutely horrified of the monsters when they first appeared. I was finally calm again by the end of the movie, watching Stripe melt away…
Ironically, when it came out on VHS a year later (Yes, it took a WHOLE YEAR before you could take it home back then), it not only didn’t scare me, it became my favorite childhood movie.

I saw these movies when they came out. I see a pattern with myself and these scary 80s films for kids. Everyone else seems to have been terrified by Gremlins when they were children. What does it say about me that Stripe, the head scary gremlin, fascinated me instead of scared me? I mean, yes, he was creepy, but I loved being scared as a kid, and I thought he was a bit scary, but funny and silly at the same time. I was usually fascinated by what would have scared most children, but then again, when i was little, i did sleep with a light on, so maybe they did have an effect lol.

The Gremlins theme kicks ass.
December 29, 2010 at 2:03 pm
Uaaah Gremlins. Well, today I really love those movies, but when I was younger…. I was about 7 or 8 years old when I saw it for the first time. I was SO fuckin scared and couldn’t go anywhere without checking everything for those monsters. But I always loved Gizzmo and had a ..ugh.. Kuscheltier.. puppy(?) of him.
Back then, there was this theme park, Warner Bros somewhat. And there were those 4D cinemas. Well, at least I thought it was just a regular 4D movie as they always were there… my parents told me nothing… but nooo… there was Alf on the screen and then all of a sudden Gremlins jumped out of everywhere and killed Alf and the whole cinema was full of fog and everyone was shouting we had to go out of that cinema really quick… I was SO frightened and screaming and crying and everything. And then when we all went out through those emergency exits, there hang gremlins on the roof and WAAAH… that was SO bad! I really couldn’t stop crying because I totally thought I was going to die!
Parents are pure EVIL !!!
You can’t do that to a little kiddo!

These movies scared the shit out of me as a kid, even though I was perfectly fine with Night of the Living Dead as a toddler. Go figure.
Also, I love the ratings you use James. “4 1/2 Gremlin shakes” cracks me up.
February 9, 2011 at 1:46 pm

but the 2nd film gets to much shit 
March 21, 2011 at 11:01 pm

April 29, 2011 at 7:47 pm

July 11, 2011 at 3:26 pm

The first toy I ever won out of a crane machine was a plush Abraham Lincoln. True story.

I LOVED Gremlins!!! It was fun and yes (at that age at least) scary too!
Also I really think that if it came out now and the Gremlins would be CGI… it would SUCK ASS.
The gremlins puppets are so wel done and it would be a shame if they were just a bunch of pixels… and they would not ‘look right’ either… they’d lose a lot of ther charm (… well charm… you know what I mean!).
I did hate Gremlins 2 first time around… perhaps I was expecting something more serious… After re-watching it however I came to appreciate it for the ludicrous autosatire that it is.
January 18, 2012 at 12:39 am
Oh man, got me good at the end there, lol.
I have never seen the second movie; but now i have to. It looks like a really fun watch.

I looked up if there making a 3 and found this fun commercial. Gremlins support the I.T. business.

I had the absolute joy of watching this with my girlfriend of the time and her 9 year old daughter. Watching the sheer terror on the poor girls face as the Gremlins hatched from the egg sacks made me laugh so hard! We had to turn it off before the poor child was traumatized for life!
And Gremlins 2! What do you need to say about this film other than CLASSIC! Am i odd for thinking that the female Gremlin is a lot like Smurfette?
Eww and flashbacks to the text based Gremlins game on the Commodore 64. “Turn on blender”
March 19, 2012 at 9:55 pm
Gremlins were so GREAT!!!
An instant-classic bizarre-for-the-mainstream-chunk-movies!!!
And the fucking Critters. Oh GOD.
July 30, 2012 at 9:31 pm

If youre ps 3 is acting out, or your nes graphics are fucked up, or your new copy of elder scrolls skyrim freezes during a battle with Alduin on your xbox 360. Watch out there might be a glitch gremlin in your game consols
October 10, 2012 at 6:29 pm
Q: Is it a comedy, horror, or a live action cartoon?
A: Yes
