Episode 81 - Gremlins J&M Podcast

This week, Jeanette and special guest, Colleen Bradley, continue their sci-fi/fantasy series to talk about the 1984 Comedy Horror film, Gemlins. Directed by Joe Dante, the film stars Zach Galligan as Billy, a young man who receives a mogwai creature from his father as a Christmas gift. With the pet, Billy has to follow three rules: do not take the mogwai into a bright light, especially sunlight; do not place the mogwai in water; and do not give the mogwai food after midnight. When Billy accidentally breaks all three rules, he encounter devious versions of the mogwai who wreak havoc in the small town. With the help of his "gal" friend and his mogwai, Billy must find a way to get rid of the creatures and stop them from destroying the town. From watching different PG versions of the film to debating whether it was worth hiring voice actors for little dialogue, Jeanette and Colleen debate if this should be consider a Christmas movie. Thank you Colleen for stopping by to talk about this unique, yet shocking film
