Season 01 - Episode – 05 – Gizmo Caca!!

"Bright lights, water, and whatever you do, don't feed them after midnight!"

This week on Adventures in 80s Cinema, we're heading to Kingston Falls to unpack Joe Dante's 1984 masterpiece, Gremlins!

Join us as we discuss the "murderer's row" of 80s talent behind the scenes—including Chris Columbus, Steven Spielberg, and SFX legend Chris Walas. We'll dive into the absolute chaos that ensues when rules are broken, from the adorable Gizmo to the mischievous Stripe. We also explore how this movie (alongside Indiana Jones) literally forced the MPAA to create the PG-13 rating.

Grab your popcorn and stay away from the microwave!

Join Joe and Daisy on Adventures in 80s Cinema...Where Nostalgia Lives!
