These are the rules you must follow if owning a mogwai - No Water - No Food after Midnight - also ultra-sensitive to bright-light including the Sun.The story tells of how a struggling inventor Randall Peltzer (Hoyt Axton)visits a Chinese Antique Store in the hope of finding a Christmas present for his son Billy (Zach Galligan) who works at the local bank.In the store Randall hears a strange noise and is shown by the owners Grandson a strange cuddly-looking creature called a Mogwai which Randall immediately wants to buy, however the store owner refuses to sell, knowing his Grandfather needed the money the Grandson secretly sells the creature to Randall and explains the three rules of ownership.Billy when receiving the little fellah is delighted, and soon finds it wanting to interact. Billy calls it Gizmo.Billy shows Gizmo to a friend who accidentally spills a glass of water on the Mogwai, this triggers Gizmo to spawn 5 little-ones from its back.Billy goes on the next day on to show his former science teacher the phenomenon using one of the five spawned, the teacher, fascinated That night Billy is tricked by the mischievous little-one he's called stripe into giving them food after midnight (the electric lead to Billy's clock had been severed) Gizmo, refused the offer of food.The spawned Mogwai's become cocoons as does the one Billy's former teacher experimented with.The two most important rules had been inadvertently broken....the cocoons hatch, mischievous reptilian monsters emerge- GREMLINS.The little monsters will now set about ruining the Festive season in the small town of Kingston Falls.How can they be stopped?A fun-filled Comedy/Horror offering written by Chris Columbus and directed by Joe Dante with Steven Spielberg as executive producer.Myself, I probably haven't seen the film for some 30 years or so, and cannot make comparisonson the series of DVD/Blu-ray upgrades down the years.For myself, on the 4K format, though reportedly so much better in picture quality to the last Blu-ray release, I myself, though enjoying the spectacle for the first time in many a day thought the picture quality no better than I'd expect from a Blu-ray.(maybe just me ?) ''Hence the 4 Star-Rating.

Loving the classic movies. Clear picture great sound.

Gremlins is one of those classic 80's movies that just never gets old. A fun ride throughout, no matter how many times you watch it.The 4K transfer of this movie is absolutely stunning! Gremlins has never looked so good!

A great Christmas movie I can watch time and time again. I know whats coming but I still love it. I just ADORE Stripe although I would not want him in my house. For anyone who does not know this story basically a loving father buys a strange creature for his son for Christmas and is told never to feed it after midnight, keep it out of sunlight and do not get it wet. Of course all of these things happen and from it the Gremlins are then born although it does not become one. The Gremlins wreak havoc as would be expected but eventually they are defeated and the creature is returned to its original owner who never wanted to sell it in the first place. There are some great 1 liners and a great scene where a Gremlin in a post box spits out some letters just posted and then proceeds ti try and eat the next person who posts something.Perfect family film and with a few subtle but social messages thrown in.

good quality item excellent service

A Great Timeless Classic Movie When It Came Out Long Time Ago. Very Funny

Be careful with your purchase of the 4K edition. It's advertised as a steelbook, but arrives in a standard case!

Arrived quickly and in great condition. A wonderful classic to add to my collection. Many thanks!

Buena película a buen precio. Tal como en la descripción. Sólo he echado algo en falta el doblaje al castellano, pero viene subtitulada, así que sin problema (de hecho todo viene perfectamente descrito)

My kids told me that there is something I should have known about why it would not play. I don't think so. If I buy it and chuck it into the xbox, it should play. A favourite Christmas movie!
