    i totally agree with you. gremlins is awesome! and your fear of gremlins is similar to my fear of the movie 'legend' on a rainy day in kindergarten, the teacher thought it would be good to show it to us. it was all fine and dandy and unicorns until the DEVIL kidnaps that chick to be his queen/slave. it was the DEVIL in like all his scary make up glory. people could never understand why i feared that movie, but come on...i was 5!

    Great job Paul, and an excellent choice! Gremlins is still an awesome, funny, and scary movie. (And a huge improvement over last week's selection...)

    Great, Great job! You hit a personal touch of nostalgia for me. Gremlins is without a doubt one of my favorite movies and franchises. I love it soooo much! I even have a Gremlins toy collection.

    I gave this article a shout-out on my blog. Thanks a lot.

    This movie is a very large part of my life, almost a tragic part. I first saw this movie when I was very very little. It scared me shitless and I could not sleep for months. Even though I got over that fear eventually, I've had insomnia ever since. This movie in some way sparked my insomnia.

    Screw Gremlins, Troll 2 is way better.

    Troll 2 getting the love! Nice!

    I love both films and put Gremlins as one of my top 10 films ... probably. And if Phoebe Cates isn't the cutest 80's actress of all-time, you can send Stripe after me.
