Gremlins is a American science fiction Comedy horror film of 1984 directed by Joe Dante screenplay by Chris Columbus. Executive producer of the film made by Steven Spielberg.

As you know, a gremlin is a mischievous mythical creature from British folklore. As the name of the movie, the gremlins are the main characters of this strange Comedy horror film. His story tells of the mysterious creatures that require careful handling.

I wonder what's used in the movie name of gremlins was chosen. The word "Mogwai" in Cantonese Chinese means "demon".

In 1990 was filmed a sequel, "Gremlins 2: the New batch" ("Gremlins 2: The New Batch"), which moved the action to the big city (new York). Unfortunately, against the monsters of the film have not added anything new but the script and special effects have become much worse, so doing a separate review on this movie makes no sense.

Phenomena in artwork: Gremlin

Creatures shown in the film, very different from the gremlins in the classic view (which in the film does mention, and from them we take the name for these evil creatures).

In gremlin turns into a Mogwai if gets food after midnight. The Mogwai - a creature invented by the authors of the film, whose name pozaimstvovan from Chinese mythology. Mogwai like anthropomorphic furry pet with big ears and eyes. Size small, fits easily into a bag or backpack. Gizmo, first shown in the film, Mogwai has a calm nature and development of intelligence: has it (and knows the words in two languages - Chinese and English), interested in music, loves to sing. The character of the rest of Mogwai -- (which came from the Gizmo by "otokoyaku" after exposure to water) is different: even before turning into gremlins, they reveal themselves as evil bullies.

If the Mogwai to feed after midnight, then in the morning he goes to the stage of cocoon. The cocoons are large enough and look isn't cute, but rather ugly: slime-covered green yaytsepodobny education.

After about a day from the cocoons "hatch" gremlins. These creatures are bigger than Mogwai--, their body not covered with hair (except some vegetation on the head), and the skin looks like lizard skin. They have sharp teeth and claws. This vicious creatures that enjoy destruction and atrocities. However, they have a high enough intelligence, can speak simple phrases, understand the devices and mechanisms. They clearly have highly developed herd instinct, gremlins mostly attack in groups.

How're the Mogwai and gremlins are afraid of bright light. Sun light is deadly to them.
