Plots(1)
A man buys a Mogwai as a Christmas present for his son. The young boy is told to keep the pet away from water, out of the light and never to feed it after midnight. Inadvertently, the creature is dampened and almost instantly, produces half a dozen furry replicas of itself --which continue to multiply and turn the small town upside-down. (official distributor synopsis)

Gremlins was a great childhood experience for me, but unfortunately, for this film more than for other icons of the time, it is not as enjoyable when you see it as an adult. I laughed occasionally, even got scared once, but it will never be the same again.

Even after all these years, Gremlins is a great comedy film with some excellent horror scenes. The work with the puppets is superb and there is nothing to fault it for. The film still comes across as extremely well made, and it's also aware of its place in time, both real (references to various films) and the time in which it takes place - Christmas. Everything is used to the story's advantage.

Bearable horror comedy.
