Episode description
We're joined by Joe Crowe, co-director of DragonCon's American Science Fiction Classics Track, to discuss 1984's Gremlins (an American science fiction classic if ever there was one)!
Kevin, Mike and Joe discuss the film, the creation of the PG-13 rating, the movie's tie-in novelization, Joe's experience interviewing Zach Galligan onstage at DragonCon, Mike seeing Sha Na Na at age four and thinking it was the band KISS, and so much more, including the very tiny bit of skateboarding that one of the Gremlins engages in during the film.
Turn off all the bright lights, don't get your player wet, and BE SURE not listen before midnight to GLEAMING THE TUBE's coverage of Gremlins!
