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.

Festive children's feature in which Beethoven the dog is charged with saving Christmas. The magical day is rapidly approaching but millions of children face disappointment after an accident involving a Christmas elf and Santa's sleigh. The elf inadvertently took off in the sleigh and, unable to control it, crashed into a small town. Luckily for the elf, who is even more distraught at having lost the magical present bag, a resident of the town, Beethoven (voice of Tom Arnold), shares his sense of the importance of Christmas and knows the lay of the land. The pair set out on an adventure to recover the missing bag and salvage the joy of Christmas. The film features narration from John Cleese.
