Fright night: Gremlins

With its Christmas lights and dusting of snow, Kingston Falls is an idyllic small town - until the gremlins take over. A father returns from Chinatown with an unusual pet, a Mogwai - a gift for his son. The rules are simple: Keep your Mogwai away from water, bright lights and, most importantly, never..ever..feed him after midnight. But the rules are inadvertently broken, and the consequences multiply at an alarming rate.

Gremlins is a wildly original roller-coaster ride of hilarious mischief - an instant classic for our Christmas Fright Night Special!
