Episode 197 Gremlins 2: The New Batch Ex Rated Movies

    • TV & Film

It’s a true testament to how great Gremlins is that practically everyone came back to work on Gremlins 2: The New Batch (1990). And the fact that studio execs held out until Joe Dante was willing to make it with complete creative control, proves that whatever unique blend of horror and comedy that this movie achieves, is unrepeatable. Bigger and wackier than the first, yet still ringing all the same bells, this delightfully satisfying sequel is the ideal example of what can happen when art and business join forces. Join us as we reminisce about Wendy’s baked potato bar, take a stab at Andy Rooney’s tight five, and put a pin in Gremlina’s DSL, this week on Ex Rated Movies!
