Review of Gremlins 2: The New Batch (1990) by Adam H — 01 May 2010
The multiplying creatures are back and nastier than before, running riot in a Trump-like office building in Manhattan. To make matters worse, the Gremlins encounter some experimental drugs that turn them into anything from a giant spider to an intellectual party animal.
A worthy sequel with truckloads of in-jokes (Grandpa from The Munsters plays a TV horror show host), plus Gizmo the Mogwai, the cutest and furriest hero in the history of the movies. You can really tell that the people making this film had a lot of fun doing it.
The plot is thinner than a compressed wafer, but who cares? It's fun and cheap laughs all the way, and that ain't no crime.
