Look Mister, there are some rules that you’ve got to follow. Join PJ and Derek as they unwrap the strange magic that is Joe Dante’s Christmas classic Gremlins (1984). In this episode the guys discuss why the gremlins themselves are both hilarious and genuinely unsettling, and how the movie pushed boundaries for what mainstream horror could look like with its blend of holiday cheer, creature-feature effects, and razor-sharp satire that remains a perfect example of horror that bites while it entertain. 📺
