🎬 Gremlins 2 (2025)
👉 Zach Galligan, Phoebe Cates, Hoyt Axton
They’re back — cuter, crazier, and more catastrophic than ever. Forty years after the original chaos that nearly destroyed Kingston Falls, Billy Peltzer (Zach Galligan) and Kate (Phoebe Cates) have tried to build a quiet, normal life. But when a new Mogwai mysteriously surfaces — one that may be linked to the original Gizmo — history threatens to repeat itself in the worst possible way.
The rules remain the same: no bright light, no water, and never, ever feed them after midnight. But rules are made to be broken, and in a modern world full of glowing screens, bursting pipes, and all-night fast food joints, avoiding disaster is harder than ever. Before long, the cuddly Mogwai spawns an army of gremlins more destructive, more inventive, and far more unhinged than anything Billy has faced before.
With their town once again teetering on the edge of annihilation, Billy and Kate must rally old allies and new friends to contain the chaos. Hoyt Axton returns in flashbacks as Randall Peltzer, the eccentric inventor whose quirky creations — from malfunctioning kitchen gadgets to bizarre contraptions — remain both a blessing and a curse in the fight against the gremlins.
Director Joe Dante and writer Chris Columbus recapture the gleefully twisted tone of the original while giving it a modern edge: part horror, part comedy, part nostalgic holiday adventure. The gremlins themselves are more outrageous than ever — turning modern technology into weapons of mass mischief, hijacking social media feeds, and wreaking havoc on everything from smart homes to shopping malls.
Packed with practical effects, cheeky humor, and a dash of holiday magic, Gremlins 2 (2025) proves that some nightmares never stay buried — they just wait for the right time to hatch.
Because when it comes to gremlins, one thing is certain: the tiniest mistakes can unleash the biggest nightmares… and survival still depends on remembering the rules.
