Gremlins
Threat advisory: Elevated - Significant risk of entertaining activities
Movie propaganda
Cute. Clever. Mischievous. Intelligent. Dangerous.
Don't ever get it wet. Keep it away from bright light. And no matter how much it cries, no matter how much it begs... never, ever feed it after midnight. With these instructions, young Billy Peltzer (Zach Galligan) takes possession of his cuddly new pet. Billy will get a whole lot more than he bargained for.
Gremlins is hilariously funny and wickedly scary. One minute you'll hide your eyes in fright, the next you'll hold your sides with laughter. If you saw The howling, Innerspace or Matinee, you've already experienced director Joe Dante's delirious visual magic. Here these skills are on breathtaking display; the result is a roller-coaster ride of wild originality.

Theatrical report
I saw nothing. This DVD was stolen from my office but I won't name names because that won't get them back or bring the two scum-sucking culprits to justice.
Meanwhile, when I first saw Gremlins all those years ago, it was a great 80s hoot with kitchen violence and bad hair.
