Young sweethearts Billy and Kate move to the Big Apple, land jobs in a high-tech office park and soon reunite with the friendly and lovable Gizmo. But a series of accidents creates a whole new generation of Gremlins. The situation worsens when the devilish green creatures invade a top-secret laboratory and develop genetically altered powers, making them even harder to destroy!

VIBE

This is a gloriously unhinged, self-aware creature feature that revels in its own absurdity. Expect a non-stop barrage of visual gags, meta-commentary, and ever-escalating chaos, all delivered with a mischievous grin. It's a vibrant, satirical romp that feels like a cartoon brought to life.
