HO-HO-FUCKING-HO! NOW GIMMIE MY GREMLIN! by: ZOMBIE ZANE

Heya Dead End Horror fans that wish people Merry Christmas and give them the finger when their backs are turned. What’s good, slimes? Anyway, just another Wednesday here at DEH so that means it’s time for me to hang out with you for a bit. Aren’t you just fucking elated? I know I am.

So, what shall we talk about for today’s post...thinking...thinking...still thinking...having a drink and thinking...scratching my nuts and having a drink and thinking...I GOT IT! How about I tell you about a good holiday horror movie? I mean, the traditional Christmas movies aren’t for everyone, ya know. So, let’s cut out this foreplay and let me tell you about one of my all time favorite holiday horror movies. I’m talking about, “Gremlins.” 

I know, I know, it ain’t exactly horror. And it ain’t the normal bloody and nudity filled shit that we offer here, but fuck it. It’s my blog. But whatever. No, for real, “Gremlins” is a great movie to watch over the holidays. I mean it does take place over Christmas after all.

So, as you may know (or not know) “Gremlins” is a 1984 American horror/comedy film. Duh. Anyway, it was directed by Joe Dante (remember him from Masters of Horror) and it was also produced by Steven Spielberg. It was released in June of ‘84 and it runs just about 100 minutes. Not on Netflix instant watch, but you can do the whole DVD thing if you are so inclined.

One more nugget, this film, along with, ‘Indiana Jones and the Temple of Doom,’ was one of the reasons that the MPAA decided to create the whole PG-13 thing. “Gremlins” was given a PG rating, but some people thought that some of the content was too harsh and the film needed an R. R...what the fuck ever. I mean really. 

I’m sure if you’re still reading this you already know the plot. If you don’t know the plot, omigod hang yourself at once because you are a fucking loser. YIKES! Did I just type that? That was a tad harsh. Sorry. I take it back. But if you wanna know the plot, just go watch it. You’ll love it.

As far as what I think about this film, I love it! Love it! SO many memorable scenes and quotes from this thing. Like I may can quote this film verbatim. One of my favorite scenes is the Deagle scene.  Here, take a look...
 

AWESOME! Like I could carry on and on about my favorite scenes but I won’t. But check out this one...
 

One more and I’ll stop. Remember when they’re all drunk at the bar and that one gremlin is dressed in the trench coat? Then he totally flashes Phoebe Cates. Hijinks abound!
 

Anyway, I’ll stop there. But for real, if you haven’t seen this movie, go. Go and watch it. In fact, that’s exactly what I’m gonna do. I haven’t seen it yet this year and tonight is a great night for it. Before you go, bop on over and see what Sasha’s doing. She may be rocking out in her Christmas themed GP’s and drinking egg nog.

Until we meet again take care, stay a-scared and I am out. Peace peace and microwaved gremlin grease! C-ya on the flip side motherfucker.
