"If your air conditioner goes on the fritz or your washing machine blows up or your video recorder conks out; before you call the repairman turn on all the lights, check all the closets and cupboards, look under all the beds, 'cause you never can tell there just might be a gremlin in your house."

Gremlins. Throw water on them, they give birth to new ones. Throw them into the sunlight, they die. Feed them after midnight, they turn into homicidal maniacs. Who the hell would want this as a pet? Apparently everyone, since this film was a box-office hit back in the day. There are hundreds of monster movies out there, and especially in the 80s these were pretty darn popular. Gremlins however sta... read more

Movie Reviews (part 6) (50 movies items)

" The Ups: The perfect monster movie for Christmas. Who can't love these small puppets with greater personality and charm than any CGI monster in modern time? The gorgeous Phoebe Cates in a supporting role is also a plus The Downs: The tragic background story about a father falling down a chimney dressed as Santa that feels like it's from a different film all together. It is too sad for this fun film."

Films and the critics who hate them (732 movies items)

"Gremlins is far more interested in showing off its knowledge of movie lore and making random jokes than in providing consistent entertainment. - Vincent Canby, New York Times Dante is perhaps the first filmmaker since Frank Tashlin to base his style on the formal free-for-all of animated cartoons; he is also utterly heartless. - Dave Kehr, Chicago Reader"

Worse Easter Eggs.... EVER! (12 movies items)

"Mogwai Eggs There's only two ways to find an oversized Mogwai egg in your house on Easter morning - either feed your ancient Chinese pet Mogwai after midnight (isn't it technically ALWAYS after midnight somewhere?) or pour water on it. Do either of those things and *POOF* big, nasty eggs littering your basement. Like most eggs, the contents are more dangerous than the shell, and once they hatch you'll have an infestation of mischievous - and evil - Gremlins running amok. If this ever happens"
