More About This Product

Overview

Where the original Gremlins was a horror film spiked with comedy, Gremlins 2: The New Batch is essentially a black comedy, with a couple of horrifying touches. As the film starts, the fantastical trinket shop in Chinatown, which sold the Mogwai in the first film, is demolished by a crazed multi-media businessman called Daniel Clamp John Glover. The heroes from the first movie, Billy Zach Galligan and Kate Phoebe Cates, happen to work for Clamp in his huge high-rise. They find the Mogwai within Clamp's building, but not before he has accidentally spawned legions of mischievous, lizard-like Gremlins. Soon, the Gremlins are wreaking havoc throughout the building. In the original film, their misdeeds were violent, but here they're also goofy and satirical. Director Joe Dante has filled the film with quick verbal and visual jokes, which, for many, makes Gremlins 2: The New Batch a satire and inversion of the typical horror film.

Editorial Reviews

All Movie Guide
Eschewing the typical progression of a horror movie series toward more and more gore, Gremlins 2: The New Batch was a refreshingly lighter sequel. The original's violence and mean-spiritedness are gone, making this follow-up somewhat more kid-friendly. Better yet, the film lays on the in-jokes, references, and humorous cameos to such a degree that New Batch becomes a send-up of the original, and of creatures-gone-awry horror films in general. Each sequence is tacked onto the next like a new room in a funhouse, exploiting an image or gag that relates only tangentially to the storyline; the mid-film all-Gremlin production number of "New York, New York" is particularly inspired.

    Crap!

    I spent 15 bucks on this movie and it really lets you down. I mean, C'mon! I mean, it is entertaining but... I watched Gremlins more than 5 times the 1st month I bought it! I watched this only once the entire time. Buy at a very low price. I woulda given this a one except Spike. Spike is awesome!

    A Great New Batch

    This movie is the best kind of sequel, only Billy, Gizmo, Kate and the Forresters return, the rest of the cast is fresh faces. The plot is original, Mr. Clamp is a man you love to hate, along with all of his professional cronies. The experiment gone wrong gremlins are wonderful. The spider gremlin, bat gremlin and vegetable gremlin create all new kinds of havoc. This movie is a satiristic look at corporate life and the usual horror movie sequels. It is unbelievable!

    Gremlins 2: The New Batch is a must see!

    This movie rocks! I never get bored of this stuff. ''Gremlins'' was ok, but the sequel is far better. If you like to watch creatures hilariously wreaking havoc then this is the movie for you! I'd love to see this movie on DVD in the future!
