Episode 58: Gremlins (1984)
Season 2, Dec 11, 2019, 08:00 AM
In honor of this joyous holiday, we bring you a surprisingly gruesome Christmas classic - that is if you're a mischievous mogwai. This week the team is taking a look back at this 80s mega hit, and its very humble beginnings with 1984's GREMLINS, directed by Joe Dante.
We follow the Journeys of Chris Columbus and Joe Dante. The former, a small town boy who made it to the big city, only for the real world to nearly send him back (don't give up on your dreams, kids). The latter, a director down to his last dollar and tasked with creating innovative special effects and helping launch a studio. And then there's Steven Spielberg.
The story of the production is almost as adventurous as the film, and you'll hear Anthony and Alix detail it all in this week's episode! Along with the answer to one other question: Does Gizmo have baby Yoda energy? Find out!
Also, how about 5 stars or we start eating after midnight? This will be good for no one!
