4. Gremlins (1984)

Hahaha hohoho. Just thinking about the premise of “Gremlins” makes my belly shake just like it would anyone able to see it under its PG rating. I mean, the movie is about a mysterious sentient guinea pig-teddy bear called a Mogwai who gives birth to slimy eggs pods that produce scaly evil monsters that in turn torture the Mogwai and murder humans. What’s not hilarious about that? Oh. Everything? Right.

The gremlins birthed by the cute and cuddly Gizmo the Mogwai are some of the most ruthless and cunning killers ever put on screen. The fact that sometimes they could dress up, smoke a cigar, and joke around just made their level of depravity that much higher. They wanted nothing more than to break stuff an kill people. It was their only goal in life. “Gremlins” gets by with a PG rating while some sappy schlock like “American Pie” is considered not appropriate for youths under 17. Good grief.
