Classic creature comedy horror directed by Joe Dante and produced
by Steven Spielberg. When Billy Peltzer (Zach Gilligan) is given
the cute and friendly little Mogwai, Gizmo (voiced by Howie
Mandel), for Christmas, he is told never to expose it to bright
light, get it wet or ever feed it after midnight. But one night
when a glass of water is accidentally spilled over little Gizmo,
Billy soon finds out why he was told to follow this advice as Gizmo
begins to convulse, producing five new Mogwai. As Billy and his
science teacher, Mr. Hanson (Glynn Turman), then seek to find out
more about the creatures, a series of events lead to the escape of
a number of them; and due to their heightened intelligence they
know exactly how to replicate themselves. Soon after, the town is
overrun by a new breed of Mogwai - the 'Gremlins' - who are
menacing little reptilian creatures, and far from friendly.
Both Gremlins adventures are collected on this double bill. In the
first film an eccentric inventor brings an unusual Christmas gift
home for his son Billy (Zach Galligan): a cute, real life teddy
bear called Mogwai, obtained from a Chinese trinket store. Upon
purchase, the shopowner offers two strict warnings: don't let
Mogwai come into contact with water; and don't feed him after
midnight. Inevitably, both these stipulations are ignored, and the
cuddly creature begins to spawn some distinctly unruly offspring.
In the sequel, Zach Galligan, Phoebe Cates and Gizmo return (the
loveable Mogwai who spawns nasty Gremlins when wet), but this time
Gizmo is in danger of dissection by a fiendish doctor (Christopher
Lee). On his escape, he gets a dousing and before long the
uncontrollable Gremlins (this time in mutated form) are back and
wreaking havoc.
This is a new release of the original 1951 edition.
