Ok with ALL this Gremlins talk here I had to end this trilogy of videos by paying homage to the “little monster” films of the 1980s and 90s! Some call them Gremlins “RIP-OFFS” but I just can’t get enuff of little monster MAYHEM! What’s your favorite and what movies did I miss here?! Let’s talk…

We’re talkin’ little monsters again today, covering the news of the 1983 “assembly cut” 160 minute version of GREMLINS that was just recently unearthed on VHS by Joe Dante! …And the underrated 1985 little monster Gremlins rival cult classic GHOULIES!

I love Stan Winston, he made soooo many amazing movie monsters come to life with his genius special effects wizardry! From the Predator, to the dinosaurs in Jurassic Park to the incredible Pumpkinhead! Yes Pumpkinhead is one of my fave monster movies of the 1980’s hands down, and it was also directed by good ol’…

In 1987 there was a toy that made me so happy, little monster puppets called Boglins! Back in 87 it was clear that people were going ape shit over movies like Gremlins, Ghoulies, Troll, Critters, The Munchies, Hobgoblins so naturally they had to give us kids what we wanted – The Boglins!!
