Join me as we take a spooky trip in a thrilling countdown of the scariest, creepiest Halloween movies out there. For the next ten days leading up to Halloween, I will be presenting to you different horror movies that you might not have heard of before, opening your mind and helping you get into the spirit of Halloween. Today, we advance to #10.
Gremlins is a comedy-horror that will leave you at the edge of your seat and also make you laugh at times. A boy named Billy, played by Zach Galligan, receives a gift which is a new pet. He breaks the three important rules concerning his pet, which unleashes a pack of tiny monsters that bring mischief to the town.
Gremlins is a must-see, especially if you are not a big horror movie person! This movie is definitely a classic. As much as the gremlins are scary-looking, they are very funny with some of the antics they provide. The acting in this film is exceptional-- from Hoyt Axton, the inventive father, to Mrs. Deagle, the worst woman in town.
