GREMLINS, AN AMERICAN NIGHTMARE

What if Gremlins were more than just another film about monsters? Through excerpts from the film and the making-of, as well as filmed interviews with the creators of the franchise and with privileged observers of Pop culture, this documentary reveals the subversiveness tucked behind a blockbuster movie that is far more complex than it seems.

Horror film, satire of consumerism and critique of entertainment culture and the Hollywood machine, Gremlins – a cult film that does more than just send shivers down spectators’ spines or make them roar with laughter – mocks the American Dream by blowing up the very foundations of American society!
