Review of Gremlins 2: The New Batch (1990) by Zach F — 14 Dec 2017

All puppets, no plot, but who doesn't love a Joe Dante flick? Gremlins 2: The New Batch is so messy, loud, and unfocused but it is also designed to be more of a B movie than its predecessor, which I think caters to the midnight movie crowd.

Is it a perfect sequel, hell no, but that may have been the point, and while I am somewhat relieved we never got a Gremlins 3, for a time-killer, the film is entraining, plus Phoebe Cates and Christopher Lee.

.. need I say more? Also, this is post Die Hard, so the entire thing takes place in a professional building, in other words, it's Gremlins meets Die Hard... Awesome!
