Gremlins (1984)

The holiday monster movie is as much a tradition as mistletoe and holly. But Krampus, Santa Jaws, and Jack Frost can’t hold a candle to Gizmo and Co. Looney Tunes meets It's a Wonderful Life when a small town is overrun by malicious gremlins, plunging our heroes into a winter wonderland of hell. Thanks for joining the conversation as we discuss the legendary cast and crew, perplexing themes, and how the special effects were frightening enough to inspire the PG-13 rating. Then, Peter Lorre fulfills his contract with The Lost World (1925) on "Silent But Deadly".We'll see you next week for Camp Kaiju's Season 5 Announcement!If you enjoy Camp Kaiju, please leave a rating and review.
