Visual movie Gremlins : an American Nightmara

Gremlins, an American Nightmare

By Adrien Dénouette

Synopsis

What if Grem­lins were more than just a mon­ster movie? Through film clips, archives and inter­views, this doc­u­men­tary uncov­ers the bit­ing sub­text of a block­buster far more com­plex than it first appears. A hor­ror film, a satire of con­sumerism, and a cri­tique of the enter­tain­ment indus­try and the Hol­ly­wood machine, Grem­lins has become a cult clas­sic that, beyond its thrills and laughs, skew­ers the Amer­i­can Dream and blows apart the very foun­da­tions of Amer­i­can society.
