Joe Bloggs About FilmsGremlinsCelebrating its 40th Anniversary, Joe Dante's 'Gremlins' is still a film that is adored by all - and a huge staple within pop culture. The film manages to balance the tones of comedy and horror equally to excellent effect, setting it apart from all the rest of horror/comedies - which is one of the many reasons it still is hailed all these years later.
