Gremlins (1984)

Director: Joe Dante
Starring: Zach Galligan, Phoebe Cates, Hoyt Axton, Corey Feldman
Certificate: 15
Genre: Horror, Comedy
Awards: None

One christmas,  Billy (Galligan) gets a strange furry creature his father bought from a strange chinese shop. The strange creature is a mogwai and it comes with certain rules. Do not let it touch water, Do not shine light on it and most importantly... never feed it after midnight.

Gremlins is a film that is very different to your average christmas films. It's child friendly, but it has enough violence to keep you entertained. The mogwai is a cute sidekick that brings some affection into the film. The fact that the creature are puppets and not CGI just makes it seem like it's more fun. re-makers beware.

****Good
