Fun Holiday Horror.

Rating: 9/10 (19 December 2019)

Review:
'Gremlins' is a comedy-horror film directed by Joe Dante.
remember watching this on video when I was a kid. I haven't seen it in a very long time. One of the sweetest, funniest and most original films ever made. Even the music is perfect.
The story follows a young man who receives a strange creature called a mogwai as a pet, which then spawns other creatures who transform into small, destructive, evil monsters.
The acting isn't the best, but like I say with most of my review for movie of from the 80's, it's forgivable. It's not bad, and the actors do a good enough job to keep you mentally invested in the story.
This movie is greatness in every single way, with style, charm, and humor to spare. This film was among the top movies from the glorious '80's. It never gets overtly slapstick comical, but this film is still tongue firmly in cheek none the less
Overall, it's a great movie for adults to watch with kids for their first scary movie. I watched it when I was three, and while it did scare me there for a while, I still loved it a lot.
4.5/5
