Retromatic Movie of the Week: Gremlins

You can't get them wet.
You can't feed them after midnight.
You can't expose them to daylight.
And... no, its not your ex.


So this adorable little fucker, Gizmo, who somehow found his way into a cage in chinatown gets picked up by an unsuspecting inventor. The shinanigans  begin shortly after when he brings Giz home to son, and then little green monsters wreak havoc on a small town. Infesting the streets, hitting the bars and overflowing the movie theaters... just like most young americans today.

Is the real significance of the not getting them wet a symbol for alcohol?
Is the not eating after midnight to fight off the post-marijuana munchies?
Is the daylight allergy a severe case of sunglasses and advil?
Well.... watch the fucking movie and make up your own damn mind.

Just remember.

Just cause they look cute and got big eyes don't mean they don't issues bubbling.
