The Como Theatre is hosting a special holiday screening of "Gremlins" and its sequel, "Gremlins 2: The New Batch," both presented on 35mm film. This double feature is a unique way to celebrate the season with a mix of humor, horror, and Christmas cheer that these cult classics bring. **Gremlins** The first film, "Gremlins," is a darkly comedic holiday horror movie that revolves around a young man named Billy, who receives an unusual pet called a Mogwai from his father. The adorable creature, named Gizmo, comes with three critical rules: don’t expose it to bright light, don’t get it wet, and never feed it after midnight. However, chaos ensues when these rules are broken, leading to the emergence of mischievous and malevolent gremlins that wreak havoc in the small town of Kingston Falls during the Christmas season. Presented on 35mm, the film's vibrant visuals and practical effects are accentuated by the grainy texture of the film, giving it a nostalgic feel that reminds audiences of classic holiday films. The Como Theatre, with its charming atmosphere and vintage décor, enhances the experience, making the explosive antics of the gremlins even more enjoyable. As the mayhem unfolds, combining slapstick humor with holiday lights and decorations, the film strikes a perfect balance between whimsical and thrilling. **Gremlins 2: The New Batch** Following the original, "Gremlins 2: The New Batch" takes the hilarity to new heights with its over-the-top antics and meta-humor. Set in a high-tech skyscraper in New York City, Billy and his girlfriend Kate must deal with a new wave of gremlins unleashed in the building, this time showcasing even more outrageous transformations and chaotic behavior. The sequel pushes the boundaries of creativity with its diverse array of gremlins, including a vegetable gremlin, a smart gremlin, and even a female gremlin, all while maintaining a satirical edge. Watching "Gremlins 2" on 35mm in the Como Theatre adds a layer of charm as the colorful visuals, lively special effects, and comedic timing pop against the classic film grain. The audience is treated to a delightful fusion of laughter and nostalgia as they encounter the madcap adventures in this larger-than-life sequel. As the credits roll after both films, viewers leave the Como Theatre filled with a sense of joy and excitement, perfect for the holiday spirit. This screening of "Gremlins" and "Gremlins 2" promises not just entertainment, but a delightful experience that reminds everyone of the quirky, sometimes chaotic side of Christmas—a fun celebration for both nostalgia-seeking adults and younger audiences alike.
